(Private) One on One Mental Performance Mastery Training (Week by Week)

We begin with an interview and planning session to determine areas of most need and put together a plan to cover those areas first. We will continue for as long as the client and coach agree additional training is needed and wanted. We will schedule this training when it best fits both client and coach schedules. This is billed on a week-to-week basis and payment is made when making each weekly session appointment.
 
 If any of the following describe you…

· You’re an athlete who’s tired of working your butt off in practice, in the weight room, and in your conditioning… only to still struggle to perform up to your TRUE potential when it really matters…

· You “try” to be more mentally tough… but it doesn’t feel like you’re getting anywhere, and you’re starting to think you just “don’t have what it takes”…

· You know you can perform at a higher level than you currently are, but you’re not sure what’s missing…

· You want to discover the mindset secrets the world’s top athletes use to perform at an elite level — and learn exactly how you can use these same methods to take your performance to the next level…

· You’re a coach/parent who’s tired of seeing your athlete(s) fall short of their potential because they lack confidence or mental toughness… and you’re looking for a step-by-step program they can use to master the mental game…

 … you are in exactly the right place.

 What are the 10 Pillars of Mental Performance Mastery ?

Brian Cain has taken what makes the world’s top performers successful and distilled it down into a group of fundamental, trainable mental skills that make up what he calls The 10 Pillars of Mental Performance Mastery.
 

Without the right mindset, you will continue to struggle with doubt, thinking you “just don’t have the mental toughness” needed to reach your full potential.  As you develop an elite mindset, you will start to see setbacks — things you used to think of as “failure” — as an opportunity for growth, and that makes a HUGE difference.  As you learn to grow and train your mindset, you will finally be able to blast through mental barriers that have held you back and realize your true potential.
 

No one is able to reach big goals or max out their potential without high levels of motivation and commitment — this is something we know.  When adversity comes knocking — as it always does — the level of motivation and commitment one has will largely determine whether they push through and stick with it, or whether they give up.  By developing the SKILL of motivation and commitment, you can develop the grit needed to stick with it even when things get hard and you don’t feel like it.
 

Distractions, negative self-talk, and letting mistakes get to you are a sure way to derail performance.  Athletes who succeed don’t do so because they somehow evade trials and challenges.  They succeed because they develop a SKILL SET that allows them to overcome the challenges and trials they face — and focus and awareness is a crucial component of helping you do that.  With practice, you CAN display a highly trained level of present moment focus and self-awareness so you can block out distractions, navigate adversity, and perform consistently at your best and shine your brightest when it means the most.
 

Elite performance requires hard work and dedication.  There’s no way around that.  Similarly, the pressures of competition are demanding — mentally, physically, and emotionally.  When you begin to intentionally and consistently train self-control and discipline, you will notice that you are better able to:

· Refocus when facing the inevitable obstacles (have a bad game, battling nerves before a big game, negative comments/expectations of parents, etc.)
  

· Calmly evaluate different challenging scenarios and make the most effective decisions. As the self-control and discipline “muscles” strengthen, expect to be able to make objective decisions under pressure, rather than being run by emotion.
 

· Embrace the process — good and bad — as an opportunity for growth.
 

As an athlete, one of the biggest battles you face is this: finding the energy and initiative to do the day-to-day, mundane tasks necessary to reach your goals, even when you don’t feel like it.  By developing the process over outcome skill set, you can redirect focus to what is within YOUR inner locus of control — and drive the actions needed to achieve the desired outcome.  This allows you to develop an appreciation of focusing on what you can control, letting go of what you can’t, and aiming for daily improvement.
 

Whether we’re aware of it — or not — the mental images we create and carry around (both positive and negative) have a direct impact on physical and mental performance.  When you begin to train the skill set of mental imagery and meditation, you will notice that you are better able to stay calm under pressure and focus on the present task, rather than getting caught up in the past or future.  You will also increase your confidence through and advanced form of preparation, that you competition doesn’t even know exists.
 

After nearly two decades of working with the world’s top coaches and athletes, I can conservatively say that a good 50% of elite performance and goal achievement happens OUTSIDE of work out techniques, fundamentals, or any other physical element.  Consistently performing at a high level requires the ability to modify behavior and develop the structure needed to execute the plan.  High-performers know the power of routine — they know how to build and break habits, and they have a certain amount of structure guiding what they do each day.  Those who fly by the seat of their pants or let their feelings dictate what they will do and don’t do are destined to fall short of their potential.
 

The more automated and organized one’s day is, the more self-discipline, energy, and focus there is to direct toward the most important things.  There is a direct correlation between one’s time management and their ability to exhibit more willpower and show up for a competition or workout and be at their best.  Every decision made each day is like a “withdrawal” from your bank account.  And on the flip side, every decision put on automation, requiring minimal mental thought or energy is like a deposit.  Effective time management preserves energy and focus for the things that REALLY matter.
 

Elite performance is a team effort.  In order to help your team reach its full potential, you have to work on becoming a more effective leader.  Learning to become a better leader creates the opportunity to take your success — and the success of those around you — to greater heights than ever before.  Many teams will fall short because their leadership is coach fed, your team will succeed because it will be player led… and one of those key players is YOU.
 

After working with the world’s top programs — in every sport and at nearly every level — I noticed something: The best of the best do things differently than the rest of the pack.  There is a championship culture within elite performing teams that dictates how they treat each other, how they respond to adversity, and their ability to consistently perform at a high level regardless of sport or level.  As an athlete, it’s your job to establish the right culture personally and work to establish this collectively with your team.
