The Brian Cain Mental Performance Mastery Podcast

NOTE

Recognize Mental Performance Before Crisis Hits

Mental performance is often overlooked until individuals face challenges. Many realize its importance only during tough situations, similar to how people turn to physical training only after injury.

It is essential to identify the right mental strategies rather than relying solely on physical efforts.

Key aspects include focus, self-awareness, self-control, discipline, and prioritizing processes over outcomes.
