Eagle U Mental Toughness

We are constantly competing in life for grades, a better job, a spot on the team, a scholarship for college. Like it or not we are competing while we are on this earth. We’d better know a thing or two about pressure and mental control if we are going to be successful in those competitions life throws us.

Eagle U has a program for all of the competitors out there who need the mental edge. It’s called Mental Toughness. Do you have to compete in sports to get something out of this Mental Toughness program – No! Many of you may compete in pageants, stage performance, music, drama, scholastic achievement, debate, etc. Everything you will learn will apply to these forms of competition as well as athletic competition.

Lanny Bassham was the best loser in the world. He was a silver medalist in the Olympic Games. That is the best you can do and still lose! Who gets all the credit and all the glory – the winner does! Just ask the First Runner Up to Miss USA or Miss America if it matters who wins. Lanny was frustrated because his goal was to win the gold medal but in competition at the Olympic Games he choked. He didn’t choke because of bad equipment or poor training. He choked because the Olympic Games brings a great deal of pressure to the competitors and he didn’t know how to handle it. He lost due to a mental failure which could have been prevented.

After researching winners for the next couple of years he compiled his information in to a system he calls Mental Management. Mental Management is the process of improving the probability of having a consistent mental performance under pressure, on demand. He used that system to dominate his sport of Olympic Rifle bringing home 15 medals at the World Championships his next time out. 2 years later he brought home the gold medal he had dreamed about since childhood. Today Lanny Bassham is teaching that system to people like you, dreamers, achievers and competitors in sport, business, stage performance and life goals.

Eagle U offers a chance for you to spend hours learning this system with Lanny Bassham himself through their Mental Toughness Program. What an amazing opportunity! Call today for more information 1-888-7-EAGLE-U.

For more information on Lanny Bassham and his company Mental Management Systems please go to www.mentalmanagement.com. On his website he has a free monthly email newsletter which includes articles on mental control.

Eagle U Team Leader's Company Launches "Play the News"

Eagle U Team Leader Patrick Bannan is the designer and artist for Impact Games, a world renowned pioneer in creating compelling interactive experiences around current events. His company recently launched Play the News, an engaging, community-driven experience - imagine fantasy sports meets the evening news. Play the News is a web-based platform that brings interactive gaming elements to the online news-media industry changing the paradigm of news consumption from passive reading to active engagement.

What that means is this:
Every day the talented team at Impact Games combs the headlines looking for the very best 'current events' to turn into short games that anyone can play, from anywhere, for fun or information, and it's all completely free.

The cool thing about these news games is that they actually put you in the shoes of the people making the decisions, allowing you to both “voice your opinion” (what SHOULD happen) and “predict the future” (what WILL happen), creating an experience totally unique to any newspaper you've read, or broadcast you've watched. All of that gets wrapped into your own socio-political profile where you can track your rank and score, and debate with the community about the whys and the hows of major world issues.

This is very much ‘the beginning’ in the grander scheme of things, and they have already received a very strong response from their community and major media companies alike who see the potential in this type of engagement. Make sure to check it out NOW at http://PlayTheNewsGame.com
