Advantages of the Performance Rating System from The Basketball Handbook by Lee Rose
The benefits of the PR system for coaches and players are numerous. Overall, coaches and players appreciate it for the fact that it creates an environment for individualized success that is fair, competitive, and motivating.

Focus & Feeling from Hockey Tough by Saul Miller
The hockey tough state is based on two things: focus and feeling. Your state is what you bring to any on-ice situation, whether it's in a game or in practice. You are responsible for your state. Most people think the word responsible means if you screw up or make a mistake, you're in for trouble. Actually, responsible means response-able. You are response-able for managing your mental TV. By that I mean you are response-able for creating the feelings and focus that will help you excel on the ice.
