Excellent

Great storytelling applicable ideas that could be put into practice and really change your life. Thank you very much mr Gonzalez for sharing your life: and your knowledge. I'm going to teach it to my kids. I wish I could have met your coach but thanks to your storytelling in a way I have.

Great Material Very Well Read

Thank you for writing this book. I never had mentor for mental training. This book has given me all that I will ever need to develop that skill.

I look forward to listening to it a hundred times!

Good book

I thought it was very good. Jumped around some but was easy to follow. I will read it again.

A book to read and re-read many times.

There is so much wisdom, strategy, and knowledge to come from this little book that I know I am going to come back and read it again and again to review its points.

Short but Solid

Would you consider the audio edition of The Art of Mental Training to be better than the print version?

Yes

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Art of Mental Training?

Good recap of what every athlete needs to keep in mind to get the most out of physical training.

What about D. C. Gonzalez’s performance did you like?

Believable. This is not a motivational book. This book provides techniques on how to get leverage on yourself to keep grinding.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No but I did finish it in a few days.

Any additional comments?

I enjoy these types of books occasionally, they help keep you on track. Highly recommend.

If I could rate it 6 stars

I could hardly do the book justice in a review. I will therefore only tell you, that if you want to learn what is stated in the title: Look no more.

A necessary reading for the student of 'GRIT'

This should be mandatory reading for anyone who is a college student, entrepreneur, leaders, athletes, etc. I think they should even make this mandatory reading in high school.

Very Inspirational

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I recommend this audio book to anybody who wants to improve his/her focus and become inspired in any sport and in life!

Which scene was your favorite?

Changing your mental state ...3 steps: A)Self talk!.. what would a champion be talking about just before competition.B) The way you carry your body!..look/move yourself as a champion!C) Breathing!.- How would this champion would be breathing!

What insight do you think you’ll apply from The Art of Mental Training?

Self confidence and relax!

sleepy

Lawn a tone voice made it difficult to stay focus. Better narrating would probably helps

Short sweet and to the point.

This book is very informative and inspiring. The wealth of information is delivered very efficiently. A must read for any athlete or business professional.
