Intense Coaching for High Achievement

Ready to move to the next level in your life? Would you like to work with a coach who will give you a simple plan, convincing back-up research, and a sense of being challenged to perform? Warning: Simple as it sounds, this is not easy work. However, Dr. Pam Brill—psychologist, coach, seminar leader, and consultant—will be with you every step.

This is not a book that you can read quickly, toss it aside, and be cured of everything that has inhibited your high achievement. The pages are full of strong content that will take a while to get through. Reading, absorbing, and benefiting from “The Winner’s Way” is more of a project than it is a pleasant Sunday afternoon read. If you’re ready to make the commitment, investing your time, attention, and energy with this volume will pay great dividends.

The book is organized into twelve chapters, an appendix, endnotes, and an index. Well constructed. The first part of the book introduces the reader to a range of concepts that will help focus the attention on what needs to be done, and why. Brill starts with the idea of being in “the zone,” an important part of her work and philosophy. Using vignettes to illustrate her points—and capture the reader’s mind and spirit, the author presents the experience of the intensity, the full focus, that enables people to achieve at high levels.

Brill’s research “concluded that there are three core elements that, when aligned at optimum levels, hold the power to boost you into and keep you in the Zone: Activation, Attention, and Attitude.” Brill explains each of these elements, then works with you to activate these powers to achieve.

If you’re not where you want to be, if you’re not a winner in practically everything you do, this book can be a tool that will help you move to that special space in The Zone of achievement. If you’re ready, I recommend you purchase this book and get to work.
