The Mental Game of Basketball gives you the same mental conditioning system that Peak Performance Coach Brian Cain uses to train some of the top basketball coaches, players and programs on playing the game one play at a time. Every play in basketball has a life and history of its own. In most games there will only be a handful of plays that determine the outcome of that game. As a coach or player, you never know what play will be the one that makes the big difference, so you have to treat them all as if they are going to be that big play. The free throw made in the first quarter is just as important as the buzzer beater shot at the end of the game. All four quarters equal the outcome of the game, not just the final basket made or missed shot. Playing the game of basketball one play at a time is what the mental game is all about. Giving yourself the best chance for success on this play in turn gives you the best chance for success on the scoreboard at the end of the game. This book is an extensive collection of Cain's experiences working as a mental conditioning coach in the game of basketball and is a body of work that, when put into action, will unlock your potential and take your game to the next level. This is a book about the process of becoming a person, player, coach and program of excellence. This is a book about becoming a champion so that you can win more championships. This is a book designed for you to become more so that you can get more out of yourself and others. This book will provide you with the guiding principles that will give you the best chance for success in basketball and in life. The material in this book has worked for real basketball players and coaches in real college and high school programs around the country. This is not a book on theory; it is a book on APPLICATION! You must actually DO what we suggest in this book. Reading this book is simply not enough; YOU MUST PUT WHAT YOU LEARN INTO ACTION!
THESE HABITS WILL MAKE YOU EXTRAORDINARY. Twenty years ago, author Brendon Burchard became obsessed with answering three questions: 1. Why do some individuals and teams succeed more quickly than others and sustain that success over the long term? 2. Of those who pull it off, why are some miserable and others consistently happy on their journey? 3. What motivates people to reach for higher levels of success in the first place, and what practices help them improve the most After extensive original research and a decade as the world’s leading high performance coach, Burchard found the answers. It turns out that just six deliberate habits give you the edge. Anyone can practice these habits and, when they do, extraordinary things happen in their lives, relationships, and careers. Which habits can help you achieve long-term success and vibrant well-being no matter your age, career, strengths, or personality?
