5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book for the coach, athlete and professional, 8 Dec 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Embracing Your Potential (Paperback)
Orlick, a very experienced sports psychologist, describes the aspects of mental skills and positive thinking required to achieve excellence. The book does not restrict itself purely to elite sports, but can be read by anyone interested in learning more about the psychology of human performance in all walks of life. Orlick has a very readable style and colours his explanations with many examples and quotations from top performers. I strongly recommend this book to anyone looking for positive inspiration, you can use this to formulate your road map to success and guide you to achieving balance in your lifestyle.

4.0 out of 5 stars Terry Orlick's book Embracing Your Potential, 6 May 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Embracing Your Potential (Paperback)
Terry Orlick's book Embracing Your Potential explains how to achieve excellence by balancing your life at work and away. Through the process of self-discovery and allowing yourself to embrace life, anyone can achieve their full potential. The book does a very good job at instilling these values. Some of which were expressed through interviews and quotes from Olympic and professional athletes. Orlick also supplies questions and exercises at the end of some chapters, which gave the reader more of an interactive experience. Even though most of Orlick's advice seems like simple common sense, it's delivered in a concise and compact manner to provide people with busy schedules an easy read. More importantly the book provides meticulous advice on reaching for and achieving excellence.
