Mind Gym : Mack, Gary, Casstevens, David: desertcart.ae: Books Review: Nello sport, come nella vita, con il giusto mindset si possono ottenere eccellenti risultati. Questa semplice guida, aiuta a comprendere l'impegno necessario per ottenerlo. Seguirla, passo dopo passo, può essere di grande aiuto. Review: Fantastic book! Sometimes I felt little disconnected as author is using a lot of baseball and golf terminology, which I don't understand that well. Although, I have always been able to get a point. This is not your "Yes, you can do it" motivational book as you can find in every bookstore. This is seriously great look into minds of professional athletes. It takes you trough their struggles and how they were dealing with them.

I can agree and understand some of the other reviews stating it “jumps around from story to story,” and how they say it lacks more “practical application,” etc. But the stories are what makes this book relatable as well as engaging to read. This book gives you the tools to practically apply, and just he says in the book, it’s all up to YOU. This book does give you the tools to create your own “Mind Gym.” Everyone learns differently and maybe some people prefer a step by step boom this is how you create your “Mind Gym,” and boom this will happen...But this book is fantastic. It causes you to REFLECT and the stories remind us that not much does separate us from the greats. It reminds us that mental toughness is everything. It reminds us how much we can accomplish if we win on the battlefield of our minds. If we plan, if we visualize, if we want something bad enough, if we work hard enough. If I had this book in high school, my passion for soccer would not have been so influenced by my awful coach. I would have had the tools to conquer my mind rather than constantly seek after his approval which resulted in a complex for the sport that killed my passion. This book is powerful. Life changing for me. We all know that “if you believe you can achieve” and it’s simple to hear or say, but this book is not that simple of a statement. It’s deeper, it’s uplifting, and gives you the tools to implement for yourself. I don’t understand some of the other reviews stating there’s not enough practical application because I think everything in this book, when applied, will change your life. I recommend this book especially for younger athletes. I will recommend this book to everyone all for the simple fact that I wish I had this book when I was making college decisions, and when it mattered most. I am so thankful even now, to have found it. I love this book. I’ve played sports my entire life and I’m ready to get that competitive passion for sports back. This book will contribute to that.
