Compete to Create

An Approach to Living and Leading Authentically

By: Dr. Michael Gervais, Pete Carroll

Narrated by: Dr. Michael Gervais, Pete Carroll

The modern world bombards us with messages that we are not enough and need something outside ourselves to be fulfilled.

The truth is everything we need is already inside us. We just need to uncover it. Based on the ground-breaking mindset training and culture building platform co-founded by Dr. Michael Gervais and NFL coach Pete Carroll, Compete to Create provides a blueprint to unlock your authentic self, explore the edges of your potential, and live a life of purpose and meaning.

In this Audible Original you’ll get an in-depth look at how world-class athletes, artists, and entrepreneurs organize their inner lives to thrive in any environment. Dr. Gervais, who has spent the last two decades as a high performance psychologist, translates his experience in the trenches into actionable skills that you can apply to your everyday life. In each chapter, Coach Carroll shares lessons from his career, insights into building relationship-based teams, and how he helps people find their best.

If you know there is more inside you to discover - more to contribute, more room to grow - Compete to Create gives you the tools you need to embark on a life-changing adventure.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

This book has changed my life

This book gives you simple, practical ways to live a more meaningful life. Loved it and it has changed my life!

Solid way to start the new year

I am learning more and more about the value of mindfulness. Mindfulness for me is more than a meditation or process to get quiet. Mindfulness is the focus on what is important and what I really took out of this book…learning to refocus. Building the mental energy to get dialed in but more importantly stay dialed in is a challenge for me. This book helped.

Answers I've been looking for on peak performance!

I almost didn’t purchase this audio book, and that would have been a tremendous mistake!

As a fan of Dr. Gervais’ podcast I assumed that much of this audio book would be a repeat of the information presented during his interviews with other people. The truth is, this book is exactly what I have been wanting to answer the many questions I have after listening to his podcast.

There are two things I really love about this audio book. One, Dr. Gervais and Coach Carroll really dive deep into the details of the key aspects of high performance. Dr. Gervais’ podcast mentions a lot of this information but this audio book really digs into the fundamentals. It captures it all and packages it neatly in a form that you can digest in a few hours of listening. Two, they follow up that information with actionable ways you can improve those key areas to increase your performance. The work isn’t easy, but the plans are simple and straightforward.

I’ve listened to this audio book twice already and am still mining great information from it. It’s a treasure trove of knowledge for those that want to tap into their best performance in all areas of their lives.

Practical Practices for Mindset Training: Life Changing!

I recommend this book for anybody that has ever desired or committed any time or effort to self development. The clear instructions on how to develop the internal mental skills required for authentic expression of self has never been better delivered. I want to sincerely thank Dr. Gervais and Pete Caroll for making and sharing this amazing body of work. The implementation of the skills presented has intensely steepened my trajectory of growth and I have a profound sense in of gratitude for your focused work and the impact it has on me, my family and my relationships. Thank you again.

One of the best self-development books EVER

Ultimate guide on how to perform on a high level while cultivating the health at the same tíme.

A manual for how to live a full and healthy life!

As we live through Covid 19 I've spent my summer biking, hiking, and listening to great books on Audible. this one is now at the top of my list. As a health and physical education teacher I pride myself on trying to learn as much as I can on the topic of self-care health and wellness. Having listened to books from Brené Brown, Simon Sinek, John Gordon, Tom Rath, Dr. John Ratey, Dr. Micheal Gregor, and many others I appreciate what all these great authors bring to the table. However, I think Michael Gervais and Pete Carroll have done an amazing job providing a practical real-world application of simple things to help improve your life. Thank you!

Worth at least 5x what you’ll pay

A great listen. This audiobook taught me a lot and will do the same for you, if you do the exercises. The exercises were the best part, I’d say. I found great ones in every chapter, even the chapters where I figured that I’d know it all. If you want to know yourself better and find an internal spark, perhaps some fire in your eyes, listen to this audiobook.

Feeling full

I am ready! And this cemented all things me! I wrote my philosophy and it feels just like me I feel much more focused and directed to that which I am able to choose and it feels great!
Thanks fellas
