I’m sharing the “strangest secret” in mental performance coaching — the same lesson Earl Nightingale taught in 1956, the same principle Dr. Bob Rotella reinforced, and the same truth I’ve seen play out in 40+ years of coaching elite performers.

This session dives into why people become what they think about, why self-image predicts outcomes, and how focus becomes the #1 performance variable. I walk through how the reticular activating system (RAS) drives confidence, attention, and consistency — and how to train it so athletes stay locked in on who they want to become.

I also demonstrate how the Play Big Winventory™ works: a custom GPT exercise designed to build confidence by collecting and reliving wins. You’ll see exactly how to use it with athletes, teams, or your own daily mental game routine. You’ll learn how to gather 21 wins, how to build a “mental trust fund,” and how to use these wins to train your RAS to look for success instead of failure.
