Wow, very interesting. Thanks for sharing. May I ask what you exactly do or did? Mental trainer?

I'll try to get my hands on "In Pursuit of Excellence".

What I also found is "10-Minute Toughness: The Mental Training Program for Winning Before the Game Begins". I'll report on this as soon as I finished reading it.

No, I am not a mental trainer. I am a software developer. It's just that I once studied sports science and I am still very interested in anything coming from that field... especially considering that it is sometimes surprisingly applicable in my current work.

edit: some of the "performance psychology" things I learned helped me passing some of the more hairy tests during for my b.sc. in bioinformatics

Very cool! I'll definitely look into your recommendations, thank you again.
