 Change faster and perform better than you ever have before.

 

My boxing career took off to a slow start. My first two fights resulted in a draw and a loss, but everyone said I actually won the second fight. However, boxing is subject to the opinions of the judges, unless there is a knockout. I needed to make it clear, and I knew I had it in me, somewhere. I just didn’t now how to access it. I instinctively knew that my issue wasn’t my skill or my training; I needed a mental shift. Determined to unleash the power I knew I had in me, I searched the library for sports psychology books and got excited by The Mental Edge by Ken Baum.

From the book I connected the dots that I was subconsciously holding back in the fights because that is how I was training! There weren’t many women in my weight class at the time, so I was always sparring girls lighter than me, so I had to hold back. And when I sparred the men and they were holding back, I did too! I learned then that we play how we practice. From that lesson and countless others I underlined and dogeared in the book, I got hooked and reached out to Ken to work with him personally and learn all I could from him.

The result of two days with him and my consistent mental training afterwards was undeniable: I ended my next fight in 32 seconds with a TKO. It was unreal. I was so relaxed in the locker room before hand that I was yawning! I didn’t know it then but I was entering The Zone, the place every athlete wants to be.

I will never forget the feeling of finally fighting the way I knew I could. Even though I decided to stop pursuing boxing shortly after, I am so grateful I was able to reach the potential I knew I had in me. It changed my life.

I can honestly say that the tools Ken gave me 18 years ago are exactly what keeps me accomplishing not only physical challenges, such as beating my marathon PR by 23 minutes or doing 10,000 push ups in 10 days for charity, it is a major factor of my positive attitude in life. I learned to think not just differently, but powerfully. Whatever sport you play, goal you want to achieve or skills you need to improve, I know in my heart you can breakthrough to new levels of achievement faster than you ever imagined. Having the Mental Edge just works.

Over the years I’ve used this in my health and fitness coaching as well. Whether a client is wanting to lose weight, build muscle, make healthy changes or drop a few strokes from their golf game, this is one of tools I use. Several years ago a friend of a friend reached out asking me to help her 15 year old daughter through a hitting slump in softball. After just one session, at her next game she went 2 for 3 at the plate and more importantly, started having fun again.

The Mental Edge is a system for sports, business, life and learning, guaranteed to help you change faster and perform better than you ever have before.
