great for young athletes

This book is a great resource for high school softball players who want to become mentally tough. It shares strategies from the life experiences of a former player. However, the author sometimes implies that applying these mental techniques will automatically lead to success without emphasizing the importance of physical work. Nevertheless, it's a helpful read for young softball players who want to improve their skills and learn coping strategies for mentally challenging situations.

My sons and I listen to this in the car and it has definitely had an effect. The boys are realizing, through listening to these relevant and interesting stories and examples that in addition to their physical strengths, they need to develop mental strength. My kids did not really buy into this at first, but as we started to get into these stories I noticed they started to talk amongst them selves, comparing stories in this audiobook to real-life situations they had been in! I was so impressed and relieved. Great audiobook!

I WAS NOT Confident Clutch Calm, NOW I can be!

First: I would like to say as an avid Audio Book listener, this is the BEST author read book I have listened to. Valerie Alston was passionate about her subject and made the material easy and enjoyable to follow.

Second: I am Not confident, clutch or calm. My mental toughness was non-existent. I am also Not a high school athlete or even good at my sport. I am a senior citizen trying to become an accomplished pickleball player. I needed help. I first read Valerie Alston's printed book and it helped me immensely. I now can mentally attack the game and be confident that I will be a better player every time I hit the court. I now love that I can listen in the car to her book for tips I need to refresh.
I especially liked the pregame routine and pre-shot mantra for my serve that she suggests. And the way she teaches to get rid of negative self talk. There is nothing " I can't do YET. "

Unique book on helping with Mental Toughness

this is a needed book for young people in sports. Often the greatest component of lower results when participating in sports derives from self confidence or lack of it. I like that this book breaks down these elements that inhibit us from doing the very thing we seem to excel at in practice situations. Game stress is real! Thank you for laying out things as improvement on consistency, how to better controls emotions and you provide ways to exercise and build inner strength and mental toughness.
