Relentless Solution Focus: Train Your Mind to Conquer Stress, Pressure, and Underperformance

The one characteristic all phenomenally successful people share is mental toughness. They possess the uncanny ability to control what goes on between their ears. Instead of allowing their minds to focus on their problems when adversity strikes, the most successful people direct their thoughts in a systematic manner that produces positive emotions and productive actions: they have a Relentless Solution Focus. In this book, top performance coach Jason Selk provides the insight, tools, and proven step-by-step framework for you to do the same.

Organize Your Team Today

In Organize Your Team Today, Selk and Bartow show how it takes collective mental toughness to win, developed only through a clear understanding of the goals, limitations, roles and personalities on your team. Great leaders respect and embrace channel capacity, Selk and Bartow explain, which means they don’t overload their teams with blizzards of tasks and responsibilities. They bust the “focus” and “relationship” fallacies, as those words are meaningless for teams unless they are byproducts of activities that really matter. And Selk and Bartow teach how to manage expectations, since doing so creates a level of respect between the leader and the team–and among the team members–that is a catalyst for peak achievement.

Organize Tomorrow Today

How do both elite athletes and business leaders climb to the top? Contrary to what you might think, it’s effective habits rather than innate talent that are their keys to success. Dr. Jason Selk (former director of mental training for the 2011 World Series Champions, the St. Louis Cardinals) and star business coach Tom Bartow combine the most effective elements of both their disciplines to offer an organizational improvement plan that anyone can learn and apply immediately.

Executive Toughness

Executive Toughness outlines the three fundamentals for attaining high-level success:

ACCOUNTABILITY—admit to mistakes, correct them, and, most important, learn from them
FOCUS—on your strengths, on winning, on reaching your goal . . . for only 100 seconds per day
OPTIMISM—don’t just believe you can succeed, know you can succeed

Executive Toughness takes you through the steps of making these critical behaviors part of your everyday routine. Practice your accountability, focus, and optimism, and you’ll be on the path to attaining your goals; make them part of your mental “DNA,” and there will be no turning back—ever.

I really got the sense that Jason cared about our organization and about helping us as individuals be successful. Jason really made his content real and accessible for people—he was honest that we would need to force ourselves to practice RSF and do the success logs. But he made it easy and something that’s not too overly burdensome. And because he included theory, research and practical tips, his presentation was applicable to all learning styles in our audience, and I think most people will have taken something valuable away.

CEC Manager, Corporate Learning & Development

I have worked with a number of business coaches in the past and none have pushed me or my staff as hard. You do an outstanding job of developing clear and concise strategies for growth and making sure the results follow. We would not have reached this level without your help.

Vice President of Wealth Management Morgan Stanley

10-Minute Toughness is a solid mental-training program. In fact, I feel it is the best of its kind… [It is] what the title says: ten minutes a day that connect your talents and abilities to the outcome you are seeking. As a retired NFL player, I can see as many applications in the business world as on the football field.

Jeff Wilkins, Former NFL Pro Bowl Kicker

What first drew me to Jason’s perspective, first as a professional but ultimately as a friend, was that his approach to success empowered his clients not only to succeed in life more often but also to enjoy the success they created.

Former President, CBS Television

10-Minute Toughness literally changed my life. So many others suggest what your end result should be, but not any help on HOW to actually do it. 10-MT is a step-by-step guide to helping people achieve their goals and to be tough when it matters the most. Without 10-MT I never would have been able to go to the Olympics in 2010 and win a bronze medal. I really suggest 10-MT to anyone (athlete or not) who needs help in putting together a plan to reach his/her goals.

Shannon Bahrke, Olympic Silver and Bronze Medalist

I’ve been doing mental toughness from your book for a year now and I’ve achieved many big goals of mine from doing so! Including being World female kata champion in karate last weekend! So Thank YOU!!! You are awesome!!!

Kirsty Brierley, 2011 Kata Karate World Champion

We booked Jason for multiple conferences. He was always our top rated speaker in the survey results. He provides a very motivational and insightful message with tangible takeaways for the audience.
