A lot of attention is mostly focused on the physical aspect of sports. When we see an athlete or coach who is achieving results in sports, we automatically think it only has to do with the physical aspects of the game.
Not always.
What you’ll learn is that most of these athletes have personal or coaching philosophies they live by which makes it easy for them to coach and personal.
The great coach and athletes have it.
So how do you come up with a philosophy that’ll help with your coaching and performance.
Enter Levi Nelson. Levi is a Mental Performance Coach and he has a doctorate in Sports and Performance Psychology. Most importantly, he is the author of the book LEAD: A Coach’s Playbook On How To Positively Impact The World Through Love, Effort, Attitude and Discipline.
If you look at it critically each letter of LEAD can be the foundation for being an unstoppable athlete or coach.
In this episode, we break down the coaching philosophy and it can help you become better at your craft.
