Steph Curry, star player for the NBA’s Golden State Warriors, has said this about one of his coaches:
” . . . huge, just being there for us.”
” . . . big in helping us through the recovery process and kind of giving us the game plan of how we can get back on the floor.”
” . . . been amazing . . . just kept me sane.”
Who was Curry talking about?
Chelsea Lane, performance therapist for the Warriors who recently left the Bay Area to take the same job in Atlanta. (You can read a great article on performance coach Chelsea Lane on the San Francisco Chronicle website.)
In so many endeavors, physical skills and knowledge are simply not enough to make you insanely great. It takes mental balance, courage, and emotional resilience to lead you to victory, whether that victory is on the basketball court, in a corporate boardroom, or on a stage.
Getting coached on the mental and emotional aspects of your skill set is crucial. Performance coaching is now a vital part of the process of achieving success.
