The Confident Mind

A Battle-Tested Guide to Unshakable Performance

Believe and be unshakable.

The Director of West Point’s Performance Psychology Program shares the secrets of mental toughness and self-belief in this new definitive guide to mastering confidence, the key to performance in any field.

“Studying confidence with Dr. Zinsser helped me win two Super Bowls. I recommend The Confident Mind to competitors everywhere.” —Eli Manning

Dr. Nate Zinsser has spent his career training the minds of the U.S. Military Academy’s cadets as they prepare to lead and perform when the stakes are the very highest—on the battlefield. Alongside this work, he has coached world-class athletes including a Super Bowl MVP, numerous Olympic medalists, professional ballerinas, NHL All-Stars, and college All-Americans, teaching them to overcome pressure and succeed on the biggest stages.

Dr. Zinsser has come to understand that one single trait above all others makes peak performance possible: confidence, or the belief in oneself. Whether your mission involves leading a platoon into combat, returning an opponent’s serve, or delivering a sales pitch to a roomful of skeptical prospects, you perform best when you are so certain about your abilities that your flow of fear, doubts, and confusion slows to the barest minimum. What’s more, Dr. Zinsser has come to understand that confidence is a skill that can be taught, improved, and applied by anyone to enhance nearly every aspect of our lives and careers.

Now, for the first time, Dr. Zinsser distills his research and years of experience, offering a fascinating guide to the science of confidence and providing readers with a practical, step-by-step program to best harness their belief in themselves to achieve success in any field. The Confident Mind is a complete guide to confidence: how to understand it, how to build it, how to protect it, and how to rely upon it when your performance matters most.

Excellent

I have listened to a lot of positive psychology and self-motivation speakers and am a pretty tough critic. However, I really liked this book and have only good things to say about it. The information is presented in a practical way with just the appropriate science and common sense woven in to support his ideas and give them credibility. Anyone who challenges themselves can benefit from being mentally prepared for the challenge and this book provides the tools to do just that. I recommend it.

Outstanding!!

I just finished this book and after the review will start it over. The information is so good two times will be a minimum to get the information available to better one’s self.

So good it requires a second read.

I have been looking for a book as thorough as this. Many things I already knew but they were not well consolidated, other things were new and need to learn well. There is a neat example at the end.

Fantastic! A mind changing and strengthening treasure chest!

For the perfect blend of science, stories, and practical advice well organized and well-narrated. Strongly recommend this book for athletes and anyone who seeks the best in themselves.

Absolutely Amazing and God inspired!!

Dr. Zinsser must know God the way he thinks and writes. I am sure he is living in his purpose and continues to have an impact on his family members, friends, and countless strangers!

I will recommend this book to as many people as I possibly know.

Looking forward to seeing you in Heaven unless by a small chance we meet here on earth.
