From legendary tennis coach Patrick Mouratoglou comes a breakthrough motivational and inspirational guide to help readers achieve new success in any endeavor.
Superstar coach Patrick Mouratoglou knows what it takes to win. An international icon in the world of tennis, he coached Serena Williams for a decade at the height of her career. More recently he’s worked with top-seeded players including Coco Gauff, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Simona Halep, and Holger Rune. Now, in Champion Mindset, Mouratoglou distills his lifetime of coaching excellence into ten commandments that are applicable to achieving success in all aspects of life, not just the court. Because the truth is, tennis is a mental game that is won or lost in the player’s mind, and Mouratoglou’s emphasis on coaching the player’s mindset is both what makes him singularly successful as a tennis coach and also, now, so effective in helping the rest of us reach our goals. He shows us, for example, how to embrace the “Progress Zone”—the opposite of the comfort zone, the progress zone challenges and changes us and keeps us moving forward. He teaches us how to “Modify Your Inner Language” to turn every moment into an opportunity instead of a place to hesitate or doubt our intentions. How to “Take Responsibility for Results”—and really embody it.
In addition to being an extraordinary self-help book in the truest use of that term, Champions Mindset is a gripping personal story in which Coach Patrick reveals his own difficult but rewarding journey. A sickly child who lived an isolated life—he was ridiculed in school and suffered from debilitating shyness—he triumphed, bit by bit, slowly gaining self‑esteem and confidence. And then, for the next nearly 30 years, fashioning the lessons he learned on his own into a program for coaching athletes, helping them realize their dreams while tapping into their immense potential.
And today: sharing those lessons, insights, and experiences of building world-class players into a roadmap to help every reader find their own path to success, however we define it.
