Showing results for "The Brave" in Health & Wellness

The Brave Athlete solves the 13 most common mental conundrums athletes face in their everyday training and in races. You don't have one brain - you have three; your ancient Chimp brain that keeps you alive, your modern Professor brain that navigates the civilized world, and your Computer brain that accesses your memories and runs your habits (good and bad). They fight for control all the time and that's when bad things happen. What if you could stop the thoughts and feelings you don't want? You can.

How would you act if you didn't care what people thought? Who would you be if you knew for sure that you were worthy, loved and accepted? What would you do if you knew failure was just a stepping-stone, not a final resting place? How much more time and energy would you have if you could confidently say no and ask for what you want? Brave New Girl is a straightforward guide to building more self-belief and reducing the need to people-please.
