" --Freddie Crittenden, Olympic track and field athlete "Having coached at the Olympic and NCAA level, I''m impressed by how practical The Daily Champion''s Mind is. These daily tools help athletes stay clear, confident, and consistent when the stakes are high." --Ozzie Quevedo, Olympic and NCAA head swimming coach "Most people are looking for a big breakthrough, but in my experience it''s usually the small things you do consistently that change your life. That''s what I appreciate about this book. It reminds us that confidence isn''t something you find--it''s something you build. A few minutes a day, making better choices, staying in the game in sport or in real life when things get uncomfortable. This book gives you the opportunity to create a mental and emotional practice." --Gabby Reece, former pro volleyball player, cofounder of XPT, and host of The Gabby Reece Show "I''ve always believed that pressure doesn''t create character, it reveals it.
The question is, what are you doing every day to prepare for those moments? This book gives people practical ways to train the part of themselves that shows up when things get hard. That''s useful whether you''re competing, running a business, raising a family, or just trying to become a better version of yourself." --Laird Hamilton, pioneering surfer, waterman, and cofounder of Laird Superfood " The Daily Champion''s Mind provides practical steps to consistently train your mind.

Phil and Jim have done an outstanding job exploring the mechanics of the mind." --Henry Barrera, director of performance for the University of Alabama men''s basketball " The Daily Champion''s Mind delivers mental training that holds up when pressure is highest and conditions are most challenging.
It captures the principles I relied on at the Olympic level and makes them actionable--so confidence grows and mental toughness becomes instinct. A powerful guide to going beyond belief and into peak performance when it matters most." --Ashleigh McIvor, Olympic gold medalist and world champion in ski cross "More than at any time in history, it is important to practice how you think about yourself and how you talk to yourself. The Daily Champion''s Mind is a teacher on that, relaxing and intense at the same time." --Tom Brands, Olympic gold medalist and head wrestling coach of the University of Iowa Hawkeyes "Adaptability is one of the most crucial strengths in getting where you want to go, no matter the obstacles. It''s acquired through years of focus and experience. There is no shortcut to being more adaptable or developing mental fortitude, but this book provides the blueprint for creating a daily mindset practice that will get you there." --Kai Lenny, world champion paddler, big wave surfer, and waterman.
