HOW TO REACH YOUR GOALS IS IN MY BOOK!

     My second book is for the athletes that read my first book, The Path to Excellence, and want to continue on the path to success. My small book can help you knockout your opponent when going after your first or multiple championships!  Success will happen more often when you're consistently able to get to the zone. Admitting that you don't know everything, is really the first step towards success. Rule changes, technology and equipment is a never-ending progression in some sports and athletes need to adept changes into their own game or be left behind. Your mind-set will be tested with any change that can affect your performance. Then you can start to learn to realize what you'll need to work on with persistence and dedication being required. It is your mental game that will greatly advance your overall game. YOU MUST KEEP YOUR HEAD IN THE GAME!

      If your current road has potholes, I'll tell you how most can be avoided.

     Rewards come when you climb another level or two. Some of these 12 steps, you might already know about. You'll determine how these steps will factor into your game and will give you an indication of your potential. You'll need to know their importance to reach success and continue your success. Being a mentally tough athlete have advantages. At any time if you finally decide you would rather be winning than losing matches, I offer my books to help you. Losing sucks and will happen, so get over it and start a new win streak. Learning not just from wins and losses, but learning why it happened and seeing more positive results are why Champions rise to the top of the leaderboard and win another Championship.

      Im' offering a change in course for your future.

     I'm here to tell you that I've improved with age because of the experiences from competing against better athletes when I was younger. To be the best, you have to beat the best. I've never turned pro because the money wasn't there to get me too excited, and I'd have to put in a lot of time and practice. I had the time but the money for equipment and practice was just more than I could afford. But I have learned several things since competing in four professional regional tournaments.

      No one said getting older will limit the success you might have. Prove them wrong!

     For my second book, I felt that two athletes who have influenced me in ways that no other have done would be appropriate. Both have displayed why the mental game is so important to compete. Ken Hosp and Andrew Cain have experiences that some only dream about. Is it by accident that they can both play the left side of the lane? It’s about they both love our great sport, and their expectations after what they have already accomplished are still at a high level.

     I’ve bowled with Ken one season in the Traveling Masters and against him many times over. He has many records and titles doing it from both sides of the lane. He is Tucson’s Jack Nicklaus on the lanes, having a love to compete attitude. Perfection was achieved when our “Mr. 900”, shot a 900 during color pins at the old Cactus Bowl. Ken’s dedication to excellence is second to only a few.

     After seeing around four bowling coaches, Andrew saw me throw just three shots and knew how to fix my consistency. He helped raise my level of confidence like no other coach has done. It was like buying confidence in a bottle. I went to him because he still competes on tour and to compete and cash on today’s tour would be beneficial for my game. The traveling of 120 miles was the right choice.

      The common factor with these two is the confidence they have in their ability.

      I'll be happy to answer questions you may have after reading my HOW TO book, The Path to Excellence. You've should have been in the zone after reading my first book. My second book tells you the route to continue your journey, so you can be successful in your sport. Getting close to the top is only one thing. The other thing is staying near the top during your career. Staying near the top is the best way to take that last step to the top of the mountain. When you understand principles of peak performance, you can embrace every situation because of your experience and knowledge. Knowledge is king and performing with almost no pressure is something you should learn from this book.

See you in the Zone! -Mr. Stats
