Life Changing Information

This is a must have for anyone not just the competive athlete but anyone wanting to improve their life. I have used the techniques in this book for competition and performance with my singing. It has helped with my home life by changing my attitude towards my kids and husband. And helped me with job interviews by helping me learn how to change my self image so it is "like me" to interview well. I recommend this book to everyone I know! It is an easy read with not much extra filler - just a whole lot of meat to chew on. Lanny Bassham also has an Audio CD "Freedom Flight" which is another incredible life changing tool that I recommend. As a performer I use the techniques provided and I also use the information to help aid others that I mentor to in pageantry. Great information no matter your sport or interest! Love it! Thanks Lanny for sharing your knowledge with the world.

Helped me Win 2 World Titles

I recieved this book, from a friend, as I was reaching the top of my shooting career. It IS the very best mental managment system there is. It helps me when there seems there is nothing else to improve on. With Mr. Bassham's ideas I earned 2, back to back world skeet titles and have reached the consistance in my shooting that I have always wanted. I recomend this to anyone who seriously participates in any sport, not only shooting. 2001 and 2002 Ladies Junior World Skeet Champion

This technique works!

I read this book years ago when I was a competitive rifle shooter, and my scores went up quite a bit after reading this book and practicing Lanny's techniques. To this day, I still practice his techniques regarding negative reinforcement.This is a great book no matter what sport you participate in.

Very helpful

I have read this book and find it very helpful. With tests, interviews, and even with difficult conversations with my spouse. The mental practice that he teaches works. As you get used to the mental practice that the author speaks of, you get more confident and better prepared, with whatever you are doing.I especially like what he says about negative reinforcing. I believe that we all talk to ourselves worse then we would ever let anyone talk to us.
