"Dre Baldwin has focused harder on basketball than you’ve ever worked on anything in your life and here he is laying all his cards on the table for you. " - Miles Wray
"The mental is to the physical as three is to one.” - Napoleon Bonaparte
The mental game is everything. How you approach you life mentally — your attitude — will have more impact on your success than your physical tools and abilities. In life, there are many people on both sides of the achievement spectrum: Those who perform well above their means, and those who achieve well below what their “tools” would suggest. How each of these people approaches the game of life, mentally, is the reason for each success or failure.
What I am going to do with this Mental Handbook, is touch on all the issues that our minds combat in any competitive space, which is pretty much all of life, every day. From family doubting your ambitions, to choking on the big stage, to feelings of fear, to obtaining and maintaining confidence, to trash talk, and everything in between.
