Mental toughness is generally viewed through the “toughness” lens, leaving the cognitive strategies involved out of the equation. As a result, many (if not most) individuals discount the influence of this valuable resource in their own lives, thinking the concept applies to others (professional athletes, Navy Seals, etc). This webinar turns the table on that traditional assumption, introducing what recent research demonstrates about the ability every one of us – and our clients – have to improve our own “functional mental toughness” through the integration of specific cognitive strategies and thus improve our outcomes. While obviously applicable to athletes, the strategies provided can be applied to any pursuit, from weight management to tough relationships, financial disciplines to enhanced work performance. If you’re looking for a coaching tool that will allow you to provide your clients with an extra boost in performance across a range of pursuits, this program will provide a solid start.
