BYU sports psychologist and human performance consultant Dr. Craig Manning agrees with the idea that great performance requires a strong mentality, but takes it a step farther. He advises his various clients – BYU sports teams, the Milwaukee Bucks and more – to look beyond upholding a positive mentality in adversity, and instead, focus on learning how to endure through hardship with a new mental tactic: proactive thinking.
