- Get in the zone - Join our team - Grow your dream - Fuel your need - Heed the Creed - Dare to become a Champion! Have you ever wondered how people become champions? Is it talent? Is it brains? Is it luck? Is it passion? Motivation? Hard work? Or is it something else? Something that perhaps you too could have or possess but just not know it? Geoff Colvin, author of Talent Is Overrated: What really separates world-class performance believes the answer lies inside two questions: what do you really want? And what do you really believe? He says, "Great performance is not reserved for a preordained few. It is available to you and to everyone." Listen! Every champion sooner or later discovers this. Along the way their belief turns into a vow, the vow into a pledge, and the pledge into a mission-to live as a champion. And it's all guided by a creed-a set of beliefs they follow, embody, and put in play. Living your life as a champion is a worthy goal, a challenging odyssey worthy of every ounce of effort you can put into it. Our goal is to help you do it; help you become the champion you were meant to be. What it takes is a dream, a plan, a will, a finish, and a creed. This is the purpose of Becoming Champions for Life. Champions do out of what they are inside. And we can't wait for you to come inside to take the ride of your life. We can't wait to see you make a difference, be a difference, become the difference. So what are you waiting for? Get in the zone. Join our team. Grow your dream. Feed your need on The Champion's Creed. And become a champion for life! Your time is now! Ron & Jeff Hostetler

The first book to gather firsthand accounts of successful practices, and thinking habits, of sports legends and super-athletes—from across sports including football, baseball, basketball, boxing, golf, car-racing, and swimming—this work holds lessons that can power not only athletic success, but winning in any daily challenges of life or work. The result of years of research, Psychology of Champions offers the very personal words of star athletes who explain how they overcame such obstacles as fear, discouragement, and anxiety, and were able to move on to success. Each story—including from those of baseball great Ted Williams, basketball star Michael Jordan, football's famed Deion Sanders, and dozens more from across sports —is unique. Yet, the authors determine that, when all is said and done, the overriding variables accounting for the greatest success fall into three categories: motivation, confidence, and concentration. Barrell and Ryback spell out the rules for such success after each section in this absorbing book. The result is a book that not only entertains and educates us with firsthand accounts of ever-popular sports heroes, but also instructs athletes, amateur or professional, and arguably anyone with a goal to achieve in work or life. In-the-moment accounts reveal just what to do in various critical periods of sports competition—from being at bat in baseball, to making an instantaneous decision as a quarterback, firing the winning basket in the dying moments of a game, or launching the winning move in boxing or judo. Barrell and Ryback draw the lessons together in what they term The Focus Edge mindset. That mindset—and this book— says one former Olympian, take greatness and make it accessible to you and me.

"I know that I'll be evaluated in Seattle with wins and losses, as that is the nature of my profession for the last thirty-five years. But our record will not be what motivates me. Years ago I was asked, 'Pete, which is better: winning or competing?' My response was instantaneous: 'Competing. . . because it lasts longer.'" Pete Carroll is one of the most successful coaches in football today. As the head coach at USC, he brought the Trojans back to national prominence, amassing a 97-19 record over nine seasons. Now he shares the championship-winning philosophy that led USC to seven straight Pac-10 titles. This same mind-set and culture will shape his program as he returns to the NFL to coach the Seattle Seahawks. Carroll developed his unique coaching style by trial and error over his career. He learned that you get better results by teaching instead of screaming, and by helping players grow as people, not just on the field. He learned that an upbeat, energetic atmosphere in the locker room can coexist with an unstoppable competitive drive. He learned why you should stop worrying about your opponents, why you should always act as if the whole world is watching, and many other contrarian insights. Carroll shows us how the Win Forever philosophy really works, both in NCAA Division I competition and in the NFL. He reveals how his recruiting strategies, training routines, and game-day rituals preserve a team's culture year after year, during championship seasons and disappointing seasons alike. Win Forever is about more than winning football games; it's about maximizing your potential in every aspect of your life. Carroll has taught business leaders facing tough challenges. He has helped troubled kids on the streets of Los Angeles through his foundation A Better LA. His words are true in any situation: "If you want to win forever, always compete."
