Life changer

The best book I've read to take my professional game to a new level. I even gave a speech about it. I even keep a piece of paper in my wallet that says S.C.O.R.E. to remind me how to stay focused on my goals. Life changer? Meh. The book definitely came along at just the right time.

Good, readable psychology of winning

I found this book full of good, practical things you can do to have a "champion" mentality in all areas of life. The book is broken down into chapters that are easy to understand. Who can argue that optimism, relaxation, focus, and self-discipline are necessary to being a "champion" ? The book has something like 45 concrete things you can do to bring this winning focus immediately into your life. Alex Rodriguez (NY Yankee All Star) uses this program, and it would be hard to argue that it hasn't worked for him. If you think of people that are champions, they all show the characteristics of this program: relaxation, optimism, focus, etc. Michael Jordan sticking out his tongue as he drives for that winning shot, Joe Montana joking with his teammates on that final drive in the Super Bowl, all are examples of the SCORE program. I do agree with the first reviewer, who wrote that the one chapter that states that we basically use "vibrations" to send out our thoughts, even for miles, is a bit odd, and just to me unbelieveable. But if you ignore that chapter, this is an excellent book full of concrete things you can do now to be a champion in any area of life.
