Way to go girls!

We had so much fun at Mental Toughness! This course was for athletes and performers ages 14-25 and took place during Eagle U. If you have not had the pleasure of attending, please contact Richelle at Eagle U for more details. http://www.eagleu.com/ or success@eagleu.com - you can also email Heather Sumlin at heather@mentalmanagement.com.

The first thing we did was identify what the students wanted to learn. We had 16 students in the class competing in a variety of activities: Soccer, Track, Boxing, Tennis, Football, Basketball, Dance, Pageantry, Volleyball, Softball and music. Here is a list of what they wanted to learn during their 3 days with Mental Management instructors Lanny Bassham, Troy Bassham & Heather Sumlin:

• How to obtain a Mental Advantage over Competition


• Controlling Nerves & Pressure


• How to enter performance with confidence


• Controlling the negative


• Staying positive


• Gamesmanship – how to handle


• Mental System (focus)


• Second Guessing – Comparing Self to Others


• Blocking Physical Pain


• Dealing with Discouragement


• Staying Consistent


• Fear Control


• Distraction Control


• How to deal with Negative People


• Transferring Practice to Competition


• Learning from Mistakes


• Who to listen to and who to shut out


• Over-trying


• Mental Energy

We spent our time going over the answers to these questions, we also had the students apply what they learned in a competition - BagGo competition. We split the class into groups to help with the application portion of the session and were able to give the pageant competitors different advice than the sport competitors to keep the students engaged and able to learn what they needed to know for their particular activity.

Testimonials from Mental Toughness:

“The point of focus part of the mental program worked amazingly the first time I used it. Blocking out my competitors and focusing me on not only the moment but also on the process where everything fell together. One good shot just led to the next.” - Justin from Arlington, VA (Boxing)

“Mental Toughness has changed my life. I did not expect to walk away with this much useful information that I will incorporate into my life. Lanny Bassham is an inspiration to anyone competing. He truly cares about helping young individuals achieve their goals no matter what the sport is. Thank you very much for this eye opening experience.” - Ashleigh from Rockville, MD (Pageantry)

“This course will help anyone and everyone. To be honest, I think this was more helpful than the hundreds of hours I have invested in physical training.” - Jackson (Track, Long Distance Running)

“It was amazing and it completely changed the way I mentally approach challenges.” - Bailey from Norman, OK (Pageantry and Dance)

“I thought I had a pretty good idea of how to be mentally tough, but there were so many aspects that I didn’t know or didn’t think would work that actually affected me for the better.” - Brandon from Plano, TX (Tennis)

“Mental Toughness is amazing! In a few days I got the opportunity to be in the presence of Lanny and learn his approach on mentally preparing yourself for anything in life. I learned so much more in that short amount of time than in the 3 years I went to college. If you have not been to Mental Toughness, I highly recommend you go. It will help you and it give you an edge over everyone else. I loved it!!” - Christina from Cransten, RI (Pageantry)

“I never thought there was a way to control your performance, practice and mind mentally. After the Mental Management program I now know what it takes to be a successful positive and tenacious performer and competitor. Not only can Mental Toughness (Management) be used in competitions but also in everyday life to make you the best person you can possibly be.” - Faran from Oak Brook, IL (Dance)

"Before Mental Toughness I has wishes. After this training I learned how to develop a six-year plan of success for my life. I am ready to live a complete life by getting what I want.” - Becca from Midland, TX (Pageantry)

“People often make goals for themselves, but only truly passionate people know how to accomplish them. Mr. Bassham’s program uses his expertise and highly understandable methods to make even the most disheartened player learn how to achieve his or her own dreams. Thank you for a great and life-changing program!” - Hannah from Oak Brook, IL (Sports)

“Mental Toughness has prepared me for my competition and every aspect of my life. These tools will stick with me throughout the rest of my life and I know whatever I am competing in, I will perform like a winner.” - Sydney from Middlesex, VT (Pageantry

“This course will help every sports player get to the next level.” - Stan from Oak Brook, IL (Football and Track)

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.
