Nobody performs better under pressure. Regardless of the task, pressure ruthlessly diminishes our judgment, decision-making, attention, dexterity, and performance in every professional and personal arena. In Performing Under Pressure, Drs. Hendrie Weisinger and J.P. Pawliw-Fry introduce us to the concept of pressure management, offering empirically tested short term and long term solutions to help us overcome the debilitating effects of pressure.

Performing Under Pressure tackles the greatest obstacle to personal success, whether in a sales presentation, at home, on the golf course, interviewing for a job, or performing onstage at Carnegie Hall. Despite sports mythology, no one "rises to the occasion" under pressure and does better than they do in practice. The reality is pressure makes us do worse, and sometimes leads us to fail utterly. But there are things we can do to diminish its effects on our performance.

Performing Under Pressure draws on research from over 12,000 people, and features the latest research from neuroscience and from the frontline experiences of Fortune 500 employees and managers, Navy SEALS, Olympic and other elite athletes, and others. It offers 22 specific strategies each of us can use to reduce pressure in our personal and professional lives and allow us to better excel in whatever we do.

Whether you're a corporate manager, a basketball player, or a student preparing for the SAT, Performing Under Pressure will help you to do your best when it matters most.

The book is so not fun to read
Format: Paperback
Nothing with the seller, it's just the book that I don't like. Black and white, full of info and boring

It HAS helped with my energy levels!
Size: 360 Count (Pack of 1)
Might be better to take the powder, because I end up taking 12 of these tablets at a time to get the 6 grams of spirulina I want to take. But because they are simpler and cleaner than a powder would be, I may just stick with this! I have noticed my body has more stable energy on the days I remember to take this. And I can take them on an empty stomach which tells me they don’t have toxins or bad preservatives.

Quality Spirulina, A "Superfood"
Size: 360 Count (Pack of 1)
Google Spirulina if you don't know what it is. In short, it's from algae (in this case) that has been shown to provide many health benefits, and studies are underway to validate other claims. One important value: it is one of the few foods that cover essential amino acids. As I said, do your own research. I'm relating what I read and my personal experience. This is, so far, the best spirulina I've found. It is a raw product, vegan, certified organic (by USDA), and proven "bio-active," meaning for me, I absorb it well. It does have an "algae taste" and mild odor (of same). This is difficult to describe, but call it a mild "hay" tone to the flavor. Since it's a pill, it shouldn't bother you. I did notice it the first few weeks, though. IMPORTANT: Not recommended for anyone suffering from phenylketonuria. Ask a medical professional first.
