Great book! I really enjoyed all the little acronyms to help you remember certain things. Also I really liked how this book included a “coaches corner” and “parents corner” so if you have an adult reading along with you, they get info and advice also. Perfect for any sporty teen or person trying to excel with mental toughness!

Insightful for young athletes but wanted a little more for parenting advice. Information was good but common.

Interesting. I think is very beneficial if you’re an athlete. If you’re not, you can still learn bits from it about perseverance, resilience, work ethic, never giving up and more.
