We live under the illusion that we can achieve success through constant optimization. We train, practice, and work on ourselves all the time. At the same time, however, we leave the greatest potential between our ears largely untapped. The main reason we often fail despite our abilities is that we struggle to reliably and precisely call upon our skills. Why do we utilize our brain's potential so little? How can we harness this potential in our daily lives? How can we bring out the best in ourselves when it truly matters? Heike Henkel and Anke Precht provide answers to these questions in their new book. They bridge the gap from competitive sports to the daily challenges in our professions, learning, and examination situations. They demonstrate how the mental training established in elite sports can help anyone achieve their goals and realize success.
