What People Are Saying
“I learned early on in my professional baseball career that players at the elite level are generally pretty similar from the perspective of physical aptitude. Yet, what tends to differentiate the all-stars from the rest of the pack resides between the ears. Jim Afremow does a great job of exploring this subject in The Champion’s Mind. This is a great book for coaches and athletes of all ages who are looking to improve performance at any level, in any sport.”
