What Separates Winners From Everyone Else?

In September 2015, Shane Watson, one of cricket’s greatest allrounders, was contemplating retirement. At 34, he was still in great physical shape, but his form had deteriorated following a tragedy the year before. Mentally, he was in the darkest hole of his life.

A chance meeting with IndyCar champion Will Power changed everything, prompting Shane to work with world-renowned mental performance coach Dr Jacques Dallaire. It was a decision that would reshape his life.

Shane discovered the keys to a consistent mental process that gave him access to his skillset once more. Across his career he’d had many glimpses of the right mindset but had so often sabotaged himself as he lacked the understanding, tools, and blueprint to repeat them. Shane would go on to dominate global T20 cricket, testing his new mental process against the best players in the world.

In The Winner’s Mindset, Shane shares the secrets that helped him tap into his skillset at will. Using his own in-game experiences, scientific methodology and an easy-to-understand mental skills framework, he makes you performance ready for every situation, eliminating stress and anxiety. Whether you’re a cricketer or simply seeking success in life, you’ll learn universal techniques that apply to any performance arena.
