Description

Drawing on his work with elite basketball teams, Olympians, executives, and artists, a celebrated performance coach reveals how mindfulness can transform pressure into focus and potential into consistent achievement. Combining personal memoir with practical strategies, he traces a journey from athletic ambition and addiction to recovery, meditation, and a renewed sense of purpose. The book explores presence, resilience, self-awareness, and the mental habits that enable people to perform at their highest level—whether in competition, the workplace, or everyday life. Accessible and motivating, its lessons blend contemplative practice with vivid insights from sports, popular culture, and the author’s experiences alongside championship athletes.
