Summary:"Why is it that performing under pressure - whether in sport, at work or on the stage - is often so difficult? What factors affect our thoughts and feelings on the big occasion, and are there strategies that enable people to excel rather than crumble when it matters most? From the development of skills through learning and practice, to how self-confidence and decision-making can be honed to boost our expertise, The Psychology of Performance is an invaluable account for anyone who wants to perform to their best. Author Stewart Cotterill provides an accessible overview of the different factors that can affect mind and body, including nutrition, personality and experience, and offers a range of techniques to help practice and preparation. Whether you're performing on your own or as part of team, The Psychology of Performance will help you not only understand what's happening when you feel the stress of performing, but also what you can do to address it"--
