Finding Your Zone

Ten Core Lessons for Achieving Peak Performance in Sports and Life

By: Michael Lardon MD

Narrated by: Mike Chamberlain

The first research-based program to offer concise, clear ways to realize your best performance.

As a therapist, physician, and mental coach, Dr. Michael Lardon has dedicated his career to helping athletes understand and better achieve peak performance. In Finding Your Zone, he shares with listeners what he's discovered about reaching the state in which "thoughts and actions are occurring in complete synchronicity" and how this state is accessible to all, not just the few.

In 10 key lessons - illustrated by personal anecdotes from his clients - Lardon teaches listeners how to access the zone not only in sports but in all aspects of their lives, by understanding how to transform desire into will, channel emotions to victory, trust instincts and keep it simple, conquer fear through acceptance, and perform under pressure.

Meh.

There are some good nuggets of wisdom in here and for some people I think this book will be very compatible with where they are in their journey. There are, however, some wishy-washy ideas that are not properly backed up and this was a little off-putting for me.

This book led me to a National Championship

This book uncovered so many things I already knew innately but didn’t trust I already knew it. The intellectual knowledge is one thing… knowing and trusting you already have the power to get out of your own way is another! This book helped guide me to a State and a National Championship win within my first 18 months of my chosen Sport/Discipline at the age of 46!!!

An Inspiring, Motivational Read!

This superbly-written book is filled with rich content aimed at helping us to know what stops us from moving forward with our dreams, and provides us with inspiring tips on how to improve our performance. I couldn’t stop listening!
