About this listen

Experience the transformational guide by former Navy SEAL and athlete Chad Metcalf, now in audio form, with an introduction by a two-time World Series champion!

This manual is your key to cultivating resilience and self-assuredness, not only for the game, but also in life.

Ever felt not good enough? Struggling with anxiety before significant games or crumbling under pressure? Maybe you're stuck despite countless hours of training, or merely seeking that extra edge. Whatever your situation, the answer is one: develop mental strength.

Discover the power of mental toughness–a cornerstone of success for every athlete and, as believed by boxing legend Muhammad Ali, "Champions have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill." Yet, this toughness isn't exclusive to sports—it impacts all life aspects. However, many overlook the need for a strong mentality, not realizing its power in enhancing performance in the field, classroom, or work.

This audiobook is your ticket to change that. You will learn:

  • To use mental toughness as a superpower to overcome any challenge.
  • To assess your abilities and identifying areas for improvement.
  • How to gain and apply knowledge from various sources.
  • To develop skills through deliberate practice.
  • The secret to cultivating two crucial mindsets: training and competition.
  • That failure as a stepping stone for growth.
  • Parallels between sports and life, and leveraging mental toughness for overall success.

And much more!

Don't believe the myth that mental toughness is for the elite or the naturally gifted. Many may falter in acquiring this vital skill, but with this guide, you won't. Are you ready to start training? Remember, mental toughness is cultivated, not inherited.

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

I was involved in many sports as a younger man, so I already knew some of the things it takes to become an athlete. Chad does a great job of covering what it takes to succeed in any sport by first developing mental toughness. I've always said that the proper mindset is the most important factor to succeeding at anything in life that you set your sights on accomplishing. Training and conditioning are two important factors that play a hand in this and are incorporated in this excellent audiobook to use its five-step ideology guide to become a young, successful athlete.

So many talented athletes but the physical aspects are 50% or less. Mental plays such a key factor and if you're kids are like mine, that aspect is only a focus after highschool. If you agree, this book contains alot of great information and techniques to build confidence and reduce self sabotage especially in the face of massive pressure or a setback. You owe it to your teen to give them the best and this book will help.

One of the things I appreciate about this excellent audio book is how the concept of mental toughness and resilience is applied to the competitive anxiety often faced by youth athletes. Having raised two children with a competitive and athletic exuberance, this book would have helped me better understand how to help them through the stress to find their inner grit and determination.
