Patrick Mouratoglou is known as “The Mentalist,” a nickname that describes his ability to transform a player’s mental attitude from potential weakness into their greatest strength.

Because the truth is, tennis is a game that is won or lost in the player’s mind. And it is this focused approach that makes Mouratoglou both a legendary coach and a singularly effective motivational guide who can help nonathletes, i.e., the rest of us, achieve our goals. The program is based on ten principles that Coach Patrick identifies as the keys that unlock his players’ success.

• Success Starts with Self-Esteem
• Live in the Progress Zone (the opposite of the comfort zone)
• Adopt a Learning Mindset
• Take Responsibility for Results—and truly embody it
• Create Your Own Motivation

Step by step we learn how to incorporate these principles into our lives, and soon find ourselves in a “virtuous cycle” —where confidence begets success, which leads to the next goal, and so on. And along the way we read the inspiring story of the author’s first great success-his own.

A sickly child who suffered from debilitating shyness and zero self-esteem, Mouratoglou learned by coaching himself to gain greater and greater confidence, instilling in himself a champion mindset. It worked for him. It works for his players. It will work for you.
