Poker With Presence

Nothing is more damaging to your long term success than avoiding the emotions that come with the swings of the game. To play your best in big moments, you've got to learn how to feel it all as it comes.

We all love the idea of truly reaching our full potential, and we've all caught glimpses of it—but the way to make it happen may not be what you thought.

When we have unresolved issues about our own lives, it can quickly get in the way of creating connection with others, and also get in the way of being able to see and think clearly at the poker table.

To reach your highest levels of performance, you need to understand that certain situations require you to stop thinking, and start feeling.

Entitlement isn't something you rise above, it's something you learn how to be with and redirect into higher levels of performance.

If you're still getting tilted and making mistakes at the table, the problem isn't your mind and you don't need anyone to tell you what mental framework you should be implementing. You know everything you need to know, and what you actually need is a reliable way to  become the person who executes these mindset principles when everything's going wrong—what you need is presence.

There isn't always enough time to figure out why you're having the experience you're having—but no matter what's going on there's always an opportunity to create presence, and shift your state back into connection and flow.
