Live better...

How do you elevate yourself to a place where you can achieve anything you've ever wanted in life? Dr. Brill, in easily understood, and in poignant style, illustrates through real life examples what we can accomplish by living our lives in a space, familiar to athlete's, called the Zone. In it's most simplistic terms, there are three components, Activation, Attention, and Attitude, that when aligned perfectly, makes us unstoppable in achieving ANYTHING. As a tennis player, I bought this book with a desire to improve my game -- to get in that "place" where the Agassi's and Roddick's of the world operate in, that helps them to consistently win. I quickly realized, however, that sports is just a metaphor for life, and being able to operate in the "Zone" at all times, was what I was really after. The real value in "The Winner's Way" is the idea that change is not an insurmountable task. Most of the time, only a minor tweak is necessary to elevate ourselves, and the larger issues are accomplished through identifying our shortcomings, and a commitment to achieving what we never thought was possible. - And Dr. Brill is right by your side to help, every step of the way...

Creatively written--far more interesting & helpful than most

Now this is a book that kept me engaged! Dr. Brill has a writing style that captured my heart and mind--I have read a lot of books in the area of psychology, sport psychology & business (for academic, personal and professional reasons). This was a book I could really wrap my head around and apply immediately. The writing, structure and stories brought the strategies to life and helped me recognize their applicability to my own experiences. To be able to simplify a complex process and to know her tools are grounded in reliable and valid research make the book all the more powerful and usable.Thank you Dr. Brill! Kudos to your major contribution to the areas of business, sport and life.Andrea Wieland, M.B.A, Ph.D.Olympian

The '3As' are EXCELLENT tools for coping!

I highly recommend `The Winner's Way.' As a lay person with the absolute minimal knowledge of psychology, I found the concepts to be understandable, and I was immediately able to apply the easy principles as I recently sat on the witness stand facing a belligerent defense attorney who tried every trick to shake my resolve. The `3As' worked for me! They are a set of useful tools to be added to our arsenal for coping with those adverse situations in life.

Living In The Zone

Until I read this life changing book by Pam Brill, I had thought getting "in the Zone", that best of all places to be, happened by luck alone. Discovering that there is a method to systematically get "in the Zone" is cause for elation! Pam Brill's research and real-world testing are reflected in the case studies that weave throughout the book and prove the effectiveness of her method. In today's world of living on alert, Pam offers a simple and effective strategy we can all use to live our business and personal lives purposefully and fully.

Pam's book is a helpful tool for everyone!
