Publisher's Summary
The modern world bombards us with messages that we are not enough and need something outside ourselves to be fulfilled.
The truth is everything we need is already inside us. We just need to uncover it. Based on the ground-breaking mindset training and culture building platform co-founded by Dr. Michael Gervais and NFL coach Pete Carroll, Compete to Create provides a blueprint to unlock your authentic self, explore the edges of your potential, and live a life of purpose and meaning.
In this Audible Original you’ll get an in-depth look at how world-class athletes, artists, and entrepreneurs organize their inner lives to thrive in any environment. Dr. Gervais, who has spent the last two decades as a high performance psychologist, translates his experience in the trenches into actionable skills that you can apply to your everyday life. In each chapter, Coach Carroll shares lessons from his career, insights into building relationship-based teams, and how he helps people find their best.
If you know there is more inside you to discover - more to contribute, more room to grow - Compete to Create gives you the tools you need to embark on a life-changing adventure.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Achieving high performance to one’s fullest potential
Dr Micheal Gervais and Pete Carroll explain, why the primitive human mind behaves in its natural way and the need to train it. It focusses on inner discovery and some best practices to train the mind like how to be positive, calm, mindful, build inner confidence, physical and mental recovery, etc. I would highly recommend this to understand the best practices for ACHIEVING ONE’S FULLEST POTENTIAL.

Authentic
Everything about this book exudes authenticity, from the thoughtful creation of the work they’ve done with high performance athletes to coach and Michael actually doing the reading for the book instead of hiring it out. Insanely powerful with tactical action steps. If there is any fluff in this book I was so enthralled with consuming the foods I missed it totally. Thank you guys for writing this work and the internal work you had to go through to be able to even do this.

Great addition to Compete to Create course 🔥🔥🔥
I took the online course last year. this book was a great augment to that experience. I redesigned my first personal philosophy after listening to this book. Shared several clips with my colleagues and I am about to gift it to a handful of the people I care most about... where is the 10 star rating?

Phenomenal!
I’m so glad that Coach Carroll and “Dr. Mike” teamed up for this production. It’s critical if you’re looking to HOLISTICALLY address and raise your own performance, striving towards the upper bound of your potential.

Learning from the best
The culture and environment that Pete Carroll created at USC and the Seattle Seahawks has proven successful in creating winning teams that care for each other and maximize their potential. This Audible Original covers the philosophies of Coach Carroll and superstar sports psychologist Dr. Michael Gervais as they explain, step by step, the process of competing to be your best self and bringing out the best in those around you. Besides their practical application with winning sports teams and individuals, Coach Carroll and Dr. Gervais have used this same approach in the Performance Science Institute program they created at the Marshall Business School at USC, which teaches students from all majors throughout the campus. Therefore, you will find this book will speak to you even if you have never played a sport or aspired to be a world class athlete.

A manual for how to live a full and healthy life!
As we live through Covid 19 I've spent my summer biking, hiking, and listening to great books on Audible. this one is now at the top of my list. As a health and physical education teacher I pride myself on trying to learn as much as I can on the topic of self-care health and wellness. Having listened to books from Brené Brown, Simon Sinek, John Gordon, Tom Rath, Dr. John Ratey, Dr. Micheal Gregor, and many others I appreciate what all these great authors bring to the table. However, I think Michael Gervais and Pete Carroll have done an amazing job providing a practical real-world application of simple things to help improve your life. Thank you!

the only “Original” part is in the Audible exclusive
I would probably recommend it to someone that is new to personal development, because it is well written and read, but there’s little/no new ideas/content that you can’t find somewhere else.
A decent collection of best practices that could be a good starting point if this is your first book on personal growth, otherwise you might find all already heard somewhere else.

One of the most helpful performance enhancement books I’ve ever read
Great and scientific approach to performance enhancement. I used this book as I completed the “Finding Your Best” online course from Finding Mastery / Compete to Create. The course goes deeper into practice, but the book provides deeper rationale.
The book and course sections align almost perfectly. Would recommend doing both.

Exceeded my very high expectations! Worth the wait
Amazing! What I love about Dr Mike and Coach Carroll's work is that they are two world class performers. Between them they are part of teams that deliver world beating, Olympic medalling, and human defying feats in some of the harshest environments known on earth.
What they seem to have figured out individually - and then together - are the elements that show up on a regular basis to allow humans to perform at their best.
And in 6 hours and 24 minutes an actionable framework for you to follow is delivered. The explanations are concise and simple to follow. For me this content was perfect in helping me identify what to do to improve my everyday performance. But it's also the framework that Microsoft used - working with this team to drive the culture transformation. It emphasizes that a relationship-based culture is the key. Knowing yourself and knowing how to relate to others. And to access all of this - all you have to do is press play :) Enjoy!
