The mind is the software that runs the brain (the hardware),

Most of us have not formally trained our mind.

Most people when asked, have you formally trained your mind?

They don’t know really what it means and so the answer is an obvious, no, I haven’t.

Now in elite sport and world-class organizations that have to operate in razor thin margins, they are not leaving the mind up to chance.

They do what we call front-loading mental skills training.

They get ahead of the intensity that is anticipated by training the mind to be more calm, more confident, more focused.

Just like we train our body, we can train our mind in very mechanical, very structured ways.
