I teach a class called Mental Training/Athletic Performance which looks into the mental aspect of competition, how to deal with failure, why some individuals choke, how to relax, having a growth mindset, and many other topics related to mental performance in athletics. I would like to build a library of books for students to check out on mental performance and how it affects their ability to cope with the pressures of competition and life. Building a library that covers the mental aspects of competition would be greatly beneficial to my students. Being able to check these books out and analyze how other athletes have mentally trained to improve their performance would not only assist my students in their athletic performance but their every day lives.
