Take a deep dive into the psychology that drives legendary athletes to push themselves to the limits of human ability-elevating them from good to great.
On the playing field, natural talent isn't enough-there's a mental component that determines whether athletes win the race or wipe out before the finish line. But what separates standout sports stars from the rest?
In a paradigm-shifting new theory, acclaimed sportswriter Matt Fitzgerald identifies two key traits behind athletic success: strict self-regulation over thoughts and emotions and an unquenchable psychological need to pursue victory-even when it means enduring extreme mental and physical suffering.
Drawing on modern psychology, neuroscience, and performance theory, The Other Talent offers a fascinating exploration of the best athletes' winning mindset, revealing how you can tap into your own potential and strengthen your self-discipline for better emotional intelligence and sustainable performance improvements.
