Along the path to any goal-completing a marathon or a thesis paper, winning a medal or a contract-familiar mental hurdles arise: we may fixate on the odds of failure or find our interest flags two thirds of the way through. That's when elite endurance athletes-top performers in running, cycling, and swimming-turn to their rich arsenal of cognitive strategies to overcome self-doubt and unlock peak performance. The Genius of Athletes combines cutting-edge science with illustrative interviews to show how we, too, can find success in any realm with proven methods from sports psychology: - setting process goals - breaking tasks into smaller objectives - if-then planning - and more. Taking pointers from athletes like Olympian Meb Keflezighi? That's sure to be a winning strategy!
