Calling all football managers. If you ask any serious footballer to what extent their mental state affects performances they all tell you a huge amount, usually seventy, eighty or ninety percent. But if you then ask those same players what they do to prepare their minds for competition most of them say nothing at all. But if the mind is so important, why not? ‘Because nobody told me’. This is simply crazy because if footballers believe their mental state contributes such a massive amount to their performances then logic suggests they should be spending as much time working on their minds as their bodies. They should. Get it? Got it? Good. But although these highly ambitious players torture themselves to get their bodies in top physical shape with long hours of physical hard slog such as running, gym work, five-a-sides, yoga, pilates etc. they do little if anything to condition their minds for competition. There is no doubt that you need to be mentally strong to succeed in football or in any other profession for that matter. I think we all know this don’t we? And yet most players only seek help for mental issues when something goes seriously wrong such as a dramatic loss of form or a crisis of confidence (or both). Furthermore, most professional UK clubs do not incorporate any regular mental training in their coaching programmes. I find this astounding. I mean, I literally can’t speak. So, as probably the most experienced mind coach working in professional football today, let me say this. Mental training should form an integral part of the day to day training programme of any players or teams who are genuinely interested in success. This is because all the time and effort practicing, sweating your bits off and getting physically fit is totally wasted without the mental strength to be composed, confident and properly focussed at vital moments of competition. My mental training method improves performance levels beyond anything you might normally expect. And by the way, I am not talking about sports psychology. When I say mental training, I refer to my mental training method, well proven for well over twenty years and supersonic compared to so-called sports psychology. Now that you know this, can you afford not to check it out because if it’s true, it’s just got to be a no-brainer hasn’t it?
