Learned Excellence - Mental Disciplines for Leading and Winning from the World's Top Performers

A comprehensive and practical guide to the mental disciplines of high performance, from the performance psychologist who developed the US Navy SEALs' mental toughness curriculum and has worked with thousands of athletes, first responders, and business leaders. When it comes to high performance, it’s hard to beat the US Navy SEALs, perhaps the most effective military operators on the planet. When they are on a mission, SEALs think clearly, stay focused, and shrug off setbacks under very high levels of stress. In this way they are like other top performers, the athletes, first responders, and business executives who have risen to be the best. These leaders may have superb physical and intellectual traits, but it is the stuff going on above the neck and between the ears that makes them excellent. The difference between settling and achieving, between good and great, between contentment and fulfillment, is based entirely on their mental approach.   This approach isn’t innate; it is 100% learned. The world’s top performers aren’t born that way, they learn excellence. So can everyone else, and Dr. Eric Potterat can teach us.   One of the world’s leading performance psychologists and a retired US Navy Commander, Dr. Potterat spent over three decades working with thousands of top performers from the military, sports, first responder, and business worlds, helping them raise their psychological game. He’s been the performance psychologist on teams that have won the MLB World Series and the FIFA World Cup. In Learned Excellence, he distills his insights into five mental disciplines for high performance—Values & Goals, Mindset, Process, Adversity Tolerance, and Balance & Recovery. Illustrated with numerous stories and quotes from Navy SEALs, Olympians, professional athletes, coaches, first responders, and business leaders, Learned Excellence includes a clear set of principles and practices that anyone can use.   We are all performers, at work, at school, at home, and at life. Learned Excellence provides the roadmap to help each of us perform at our very best.
