Toughness has long been held as a fundamental key to achieving peak performance. For generations, we've been taught toughness means bulldozing through—pushing to the point of breakdown—and that showing any sign of weakness is failure. This model of toughness has long been glorified and celebrated. But the truth is, it doesn't work. Steve Magness, a performance scientist who coaches Olympic athletes, now offers a new kind of toughness—real toughness—that can help anyone navigate adversity. Real toughness works with our biology and psychology; fake toughness fights against them.

There are many routes to success that revolve around our physical capabilities and this is often seen in athletes or the military, for example.

If you choose to use one or more of these scripts to facilitate a guided meditation journey for others, please preface the trip for them by reminding them that no longer all people "see" matters for the duration of a guided meditation. This is very important, because our purpose is for them to go a bit closer to their soul during the journey, not to supply them one more cause to consider they've failed.

Publisher's Summary
The 'perfect' run, when you are in a full flow and feeling totally unstoppable, can be elusive, but this practical expert guide, written by celebrated Runner's World writer Mackenzie Havey, will ensure you find it time and time again and in the process transform your running performances.
At some point in every runner's career they experience the 'perfect' run, when they are in full flow and feel totally unstoppable. Your worries about the day and physical aches and pains melt away. Your body and mind are in complete sync and the run feels effortless.
Even still, the path to achieving the perfect run remains mysterious. It often materialises in the unlikeliest of circumstances - in adverse weather or on a day when everything else seems to be going wrong. Conversely, when we try hard to create the right conditions for that perfect run, it often doesn't come about.
In The Perfect Run, Mackenzie L. Havey reveals everyone has the potential to enjoy more joyful and flow-driven running, no matter your experience, pace, or sporting ambitions.
These ideas will not only help facilitate the potential for more successful running but, more significantly, can also be translated into other areas of your life to help provide a sense of calmness, self-control and fulfillment far beyond the running trails.

Achievement often comes at a cost. Angst, restlessness, frayed relationships, exhaustion, and even substance abuse can be the unwanted side effects of an obsession with outward performance. While the high of occasional wins can keep you going for a while, playing into the always-on, never enough hustle culture ultimately takes a serious toll.

While the high of occasional wins can keep you going for a while, playing into the always-on, never enough hustle culture ultimately takes a serious toll.

The Brave Athlete solves the 13 most common mental conundrums athletes face in their everyday training and in races. You don't have one brain - you have three; your ancient Chimp brain that keeps you alive, your modern Professor brain that navigates the civilized world, and your Computer brain that accesses your memories and runs your habits (good and bad). They fight for control all the time and that's when bad things happen. What if you could stop the thoughts and feelings you don't want? You can.
