"Intriguing and persuasive....Though Rotella's primary concern here is with the very successful, "ordinary" people should also find useful tips here for smoothly handling life's challenges and opportunities." - Publishers Weekly, "The author is, unquestionably, the premier mental coach for golf, having worked with Darren Clarke and Keegan Bradley as well as athletes in other sports, along with business executives...What makes golf an interesting metaphor is that even the truly luminary succeed, but only a fraction of the time. Rotella emphasizes the importance of goals-setting and the discipline that is required to achieve those aims....[ How Champions Think is] so good that this reviewer has recommended it to all,golfers and non-golfers alike." -- Library Journal (starred review), "Having counseled such sports stars as LeBron James and PGA great Hal Sutton, sports psychologist Rotella extends his sports-centric guidance to those seeking to enhance their everyday acumen through the power of focused positive thinking....A solid motivational text for the sports-minded and thoseinterested in the bridging of athletics and exceptionalism." -Kirkus Reviews, "Having counseled such sports stars as LeBron James and PGA great Hal Sutton, sports psychologist Rotella extends his sports-centric guidance to those seeking to enhance their everyday acumen through the power of focused positive thinking....A solid motivational text for the sports-minded and thoseinterested in the bridging of athletics and exceptionalism." --Kirkus Reviews, "The author is, unquestionably, the premier mental coach for golf, having worked with Darren Clarke and Keegan Bradley as well as athletes in other sports, along with business executives...What makes golf an interesting metaphor is that even the truly luminary succeed, but only a fraction of the time.

Acclaimed sports psychologist Bob Rotella has advised everyone from professional golfers to NBA superstars to business executives on how to flourish under pressure and overcome challenges.
