The Mental Edge provides the clearest and most comprehensive program for developing metal training routines that can/will improve performance. And if you are good at some endeavor - you have already learned the base skills needed - from there on it is mental. Again, of all the books (too many) on trying to understand and develop procedures, this is the best.
(From quoting a guest reviewer)

From publisher
No matter what sport you enjoy or what level you play, you have the potential for a peak performance-and realizing that potential is the goal of everyone who makes athletics part of their lives. And while you can benefit from the advice of tennis and golf pros, marathon runners, and skiing instructors, the edge you seek to maximize your performance isn't in your stroke, your pace, or your posture-it's in your mind. Kenneth Baum describes the program he uses to sharpen and maximize the sports performances of thousands of professional and amateur athletes across the country: * Power Talk * Proper Visualization and Perception Stretchers * Performance Cues * Identifying and Conquering Obstacles * A Commitment to Consistent and Resilient Action Your mind is your most valuable piece of equipment, your strongest muscle-and your best shot at peak performance for life.

Golf, Tennis, Weight-Lifting, Skiing, Running... no matter what sport you participate in, The Mental Edge can help you!
I'm a race car driver (wannabe), and though Ken Baum makes no reference to race car driving, I can apply his techniques to my preferred sport.
Did you know that at the upper echelons of most sports, it's all mental? If you don't have the mental advantage, or the Mental Edge, you will lose to someone who does.
Step-by-step instruction makes Ken Baum's program easy to understand, and easy to apply. Yes, it may have "New-Age" stuff that some athletes despise, but backed with facts and factual anecdotes, one can't deny the advantages of upping one's mental game.
Besides, Ken Baum takes this "new-age" stuff to a scientific level; a methodical approach to improving the mental game.
Just ask Tiger Woods, or even Michael Schumacher; it's all mental, and that's where the battle really is.
If you want to improve, if you want to be better, no matter what sport (and indeed, no matter what endeavour), then you better read Ken Baum's the Mental Edge...
