Description
You have created a Mental Monster that is more cunning, capable, and powerful than any of your physical opponents. It is your worst enemy and fiercest rival in sport.
Do you sabotage your own performances and success?
Are you in a constant battle with your mind?
Do you ever wonder why your mind turns against you?
Has competing become a fear-fest when it used to be fun and exciting?
Guided by the Mental Monster Model, Facing Frankenstein is a one-stop superstore of information and instruction for sportspeople who long for an effective answer to the burning question:
How can I get out of my own way and perform like I know I can?
With its combination of unique insights, real-life examples, and a no-nonsense training system that works, you will discover:
Why you struggle with the psychological side of competing and be surprised that it has little to do with sport itself.
What holds you back and why.
How to manage the monster mind and deliver high-level performances time and time again.
'Working with Mark was the turning point in my career'
