"An eight-skill program by the longtime sport psychologist for the U.S. Olympic Committee, designed to put your performance - athletic or corporate - in the "Zone," that level of accomplishment where your very best work feels easy and effortless." "As sport psychologist for the U.S. Olympic Committee, Dr. Shane Murphy has counseled elite athletes at the height of their sports, helping them forge the mental edge vital to peak performance. Now, in a clear, concise, step-by-step guide, he makes his techniques available to the weekend warrior as well as those striving under the pressure of world-class competition." "Success in any endeavor is predicated on two sets of abilities. The first is technical: knowing the job. The second - often ignored - involves performing well in a competitive environment. The Achievement Zone focuses on this second set of skills, breaking them down into intelligible components so that instead of "just doing it" you'll know precisely how."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
