Billie Jean King.  Tiger Woods.  Muhammad Ali.
Michael Jordan.  Babe Didrikson Zaharias…

These are some of the greatest athletes of all time.  They electrified their sport, and left the mark of greatness upon it.  Though all but Woods have retired, or even passed on, each has left a legacy that will influence players for years to come.

Besides raw talent, each of these champions had something in common: laser-sharp mental focus.  Their minds were as finely trained and honed as their bodies – and became as lethal a weapon as King's backhand, or Ali's right hook.

They were (or are) masters of poise, focus and passion.  Those are the ingredients of a Champion.  Whether you want to succeed in sports, business, or just plain life, those are the ingredients you'll need as well.

Nancy Koran, author of sports books The Zen Of Tennis and The Victory Dance, knows that the same optimal thinking that enables an athlete to become a champion can also propel even the most ordinary people to greatness.

Learning how to control your mind and experience the present moment are the first steps toward becoming your best self – on and off the playing field.

"A true champion keeps emotions under control, is positive about winning and stays focused to achieve his or her goal."

-Nancy Koran, in The Zen Of Tennis
