Mental Toughness and Performing Under Pressure

By Steve Siebold

Performing under pressure requires mental toughness, in other words, emotional control. This is one of the most misunderstood concepts in psychological performance training. Some people believe that mental toughness is something with which we are born. Not true. Mental toughness is something we learn. It requires a foundational understanding of what pressure is, and how to reduce or eliminate it. Once you know what you’re dealing with, you can adjust your thinking to instantly reduce the pressure you’re experiencing. In this episode of the Mental Toughness Podcast, I explore the gritty details of how to perform under pressure. #mentaltoughness #personaldevelopment

Mental Toughness on Farming and Hunting Prospects

By Steve Siebold

Many entrepreneurs and salespeople prefer farming over hunting business. This is is more about mindest than strategy, and in today’s environment, it’s limiting. This is why being mentally tough is critical to your success. The more flooded the field, the more hunting must be employed.

Critical vs. Emotional Thinking on the Mental Toughness Podcast

By Steve Siebold

One of the key skills we’ve been teaching at Mental Toughness University for 25 years is critical thinking. Since human beings are emotional creatures, critical thinking doesn’t come naturally. Critical thinking is emotion-less thinking, where decisions and actions are based on data, evidence and proof. And as simple as it seems, it’s not easy if you’re used to thinking emotionally. In this episode we dissect the thinking and behavior of former President Donald Trump, Hollywood legend Will Smith, and the emotionally charged American political landscape. As well as the former mask mandates on the airlines. Watch this short episode and I’ll

As a lifetime seeker of all-things success, I’ve lived most of my life worshipping at the alter of the world’s greatest performers. I’ve written 12 books that focus on the subject of success or heavily allude to it.
