Over the past ten years, Steve Anderson, a USPSA Grand Master and the host of “That Shooting Show,” has observed several notable trends and developments among his students as he teaches mental management in practical shooting: Increased Focus on Mental Skills: Anderson has noted a significant shift in how shooters perceive the importance of the mental game in shooting sports. More students are now recognizing that mental preparation can be as crucial as physical skills. He emphasizes concepts like match mode versus speed or accuracy modes, which are often discussed on his podcast and in his classes. Application of Mental Management Systems: Being certified in Lanny Bassham's “Mental Management Systems,” Anderson applies these principles to shooting, helping students understand how mental preparation can lead to better performance. This includes teaching shooters how to manage their thoughts after practice or matches to reinforce positive outcomes rather than dwell on negatives, which is a recurring theme in his teachings. Transformation in Student Performance: Anderson has seen students who, after attending his mental management seminars or classes, experience significant improvements in their competitive performance. His students often report going from average performers to winning major competitions or achieving higher classifications like Grandmaster after adopting these mental strategies. The feedback from students highlights the practical application of his teachings, with some even attributing their competitive successes directly to these mental techniques. Ongoing Learning and Adaptation: The community of practical shooters is dynamic, with continuous learning being a key aspect. Anderson sees that his students are not just taking one class; many return for repeated sessions or explore different facets of the mental game, indicating a deep commitment to mastering this aspect of shooting. This ongoing engagement has also led to a culture where shooters share and learn from each other's experiences, further fueled by Anderson's podcast episodes. Mental Game as a Competitive Edge: There's a growing understanding among competitors that mastering the mental aspects can provide a substantial edge over others who might focus solely on physical skills. Anderson's teachings have helped demystify how mental preparation can lead to consistency under pressure, which is vital in practical shooting sports. Steve Anderson's work has not only influenced individual shooters but has also contributed to a broader cultural shift in how mental management is approached in shooting sports, making it a cornerstone of competitive training.
In this episode of "With When You Mind," hosts Troy and Lanny Bassham discuss the distinct communication styles of top athletes compared to other competitors. Lanny shares a personal experience from his time at the Army Marksmanship Unit, where he learned that elite athletes focus on solutions rather than problems. They emphasize the importance of discussing successes and learning from mistakes without dwelling on failures. The conversation highlights how athletes' communication can significantly impact their performance and mindset, advocating for a positive and solution-oriented approach to competition.

They talk about their experiences in sports like international rifle shooting and how they realized that there was something the elite performers were doing that they weren't. They introduce the performance model, which consists of the conscious, subconscious, and self-image parts. They explain that self-image is crucial for performance and discuss how it can be built through positive imprints and reinforcement. They also touch on the importance of analyzing performance and focusing on solutions rather than mistakes. The conversation concludes with a discussion on creating an environment that fosters growth and the impact of external imprints on self-image.

When it comes to our competitive mindset, we are often tempted to focus on our negative outcomes. We dwell on our mistakes, overanalyze our bad runs, and remember our shortcomings more than we should. When we think negatively about ourselves, this only reinforces a negative self image. On this episode, I'm sharing some fundamental beliefs about the self image from author Lanny Bassham of With Winning in Mind, and how his beliefs on personal development can be applied to your training career.

You Don't Rise to the Occasion, You Sink to… Continuing our tour through Brian Cain's mental toughness fables, let's talk about another Big Idea from The 10 Pillars of Mental Performance Mastery. Remember: Brian has coached an INCREDIBLE number of SUPER-ELITE athletes and coaches. Eight UFC Champions. Four Cy Young Winners. MVPs. Olympians, etc, etc., etc. One of the things he teaches them? The fact that, as he puts it: “You don't rise to the occasion, you sink to your levels of training and habits.” Here's how his guide Coach Kenny puts it in the fable. He tells us: “‘The key is to make your habits so strong and your training so good that when you sink to your worst day, you sink to a level higher than anyone else on their best day,' Coach Kenny said. ‘It's easy to say, hard to do, and only possible if you follow the 10 pillars of mental performance mastery.'” Then he says: “'Everyone talks about raising the roof. In reality, it's about raising your basement so that you have good bad days and are better on your bad days than most people are on their good days—because you can focus better and have better habits and a more elite mindset. It's really about being the best version of you that you have ever been. It's also about not comparing yourself to anyone else but to where you were yesterday. If you can see progress—be better today than you were yesterday and better tomorrow than you are today—and just keep going baby step by baby step, you will get where you want to be.'” That's from a great chapter called “You Don't Rise to the Occasion; You Sink to Your Training and Habits.” There's a LOT of wisdom in there that we could talk about for an entire weekend workshop. For now, let's focus on a few highlights and some parallel wisdom from other brilliant teachers. First, I think of this +1 on Good Bad Days in which we talk about some wisdom from Jim Afremow's The Champion's Mind. Big Idea? Golfers like Jack Nicklaus and Rory McIlroy know it's all about “playing poorly well.” You can only do that when you have an elite mind. Then I think of Lanny Bassham and his son Troy who wrote With Winning in Mind and Attainment. In this +1 on Average vs. Elite, we talk about the fact that AVERAGE performers practice something until they can get it right. ELITE performers, on the other hand, practice until they CAN'T GET IT WRONG. Then there's Josh Waitzkin, the chess prodigy turned martial artist champion. In The Art of Learning, he tells us that we need to make our prior best our new baseline. What happens when we do all that? We raise the basement. Our highs are higher AND (!) our LOWS are HIGHER. On our worst days, we're often better than we used to be on our best days. And that's an incredibly powerful thing. Here's to raising our basement as we DOMINATE THE DAY and give the world all we've got, Hero. Day 1. All in. Let's go! P.S. Lest you think this is just a bunch of peak performance mumbo jumbo, let's remind ourselves of the ancient wisdom from one of the wisest of them all as we make sure we are building our lives on a solid foundation.

Gandhi, the Gita, Bagger Vance, and YOU In our last couple +1s, we've had fun hanging out with some world-class peak performance coaches: Harvey Dorfman and Phil Stutz. What did they teach us? They tell us that it's ALL ABOUT focusing on the PROCESS of TAKING ACTION rather than the unhealthy obsession on the OUTCOMES. They, of course, are not alone in this perspective. We talk about it in one of my all-time favorite +1s called “Did I Win? How to Sink a $1m Putt and Do Other Great Things.” Short story: Lanny Bassham worked with a golfer who hadn't won in a while. Lanny told him to not even think about winning a tournament. Instead, they developed a protocol. His job was to EXECUTE that protocol every shot of every round he played. Fast forward a few tournaments. It's the final shot on the final hole on the final day of the tournament. Our golfer steps up, executes his protocol and makes the putt. Then his wife runs onto the green and leaps into his arms. His response? “Did I win?” I just got goosebumps typing that out. I've told that story COUNTLESS times. And it gets me EVERY SINGLE TIME. Imagine stepping up for a $1 million dollar putt and being SO FOCUSED on the PROCESS that you're OBLIVIOUS to the OUTCOME. Boom. That's how it's done. Then there's Gandhi. He tells us the same thing in his own words. In Eknath Easwaran's FANTASTIC biography Gandhi the Man (check out those Notes!), we learn that Gandhi liked to say: “The goal ever recedes from us. The greater the progress the greater the recognition of our unworthiness. Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment. Full effort is full victory.” BOOM. That's how it's done. Where'd Gandhi get that wisdom? From his bible, the Bhagavad Gita (check out those Notes!) where we learn the fact that: “The awakened sages call a person wise when all his undertakings are free from anxiety about results.” I could go on and on and on. I'll leave it at that for now. Actually… Let's bring it back to the 21st century and hear how Steven Pressfield puts it in The War of Art (check out THOSE Notes as well!). He tells us: “The professional has learned that success, like happiness, comes as a by-product of work. The professional concentrates on the work and allows rewards to come or not come, whatever they like.” btw: Pressfield actually wrote a book on the subject that became a movie starring Will Smith and Matt Damon. Ever heard of The Legend of Bagger Vance? Did you know that that movie is basically the Bhagavad Gita on a golf course? Yep. In the Gita, a wise god (Krishna) advises a reluctant warrior (Arjuna). In The Legend of Bagger Vance, a wise caddy (Bagger Vance) advises a reluctant golfer (Rannulph Junuh). “Bagger Vance” “Bhagavad Gita.” Get it? So… Quick check-in… What do YOU want in your life? More Energy? More Productivity? More Connection? Awesome. What can you do RIGHT NOW (!) to take ONE STEP toward to achieving it? Get on that. Release attachment to outcomes. Repeat. All day. Every day. ESPECIALLY… TODAY. +1. +1. +1.

This is my third in a series that I've done, influenced by the book “With Winning in Mind” by Lanny Bassham. Lanny was a 1976 Olympic gold medalist, and he is the founder of Mental Management Systems, which is a program for helping high-performers reach their potential and change their self-image or modify their self-image. I was so struck by the self-image thing, because I've been very interested in "self-talk" and what I call "self-listen." The self-image thing really struck me, and I wanted to share it. I've done two episodes before this one in the series, the first is called “Self-Image - Building a Better You.” The second is “Understanding Your Self-Image.” And now today, I'm going to talk to you, again out of Lanny's book, about changing your self-image. You won't want to miss my final episode on self-image!Connect with Mike:Website: https://mikemalatesta.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikemalatesta/Please LIKE

In this episode, I continue my discussion on the importance of self-image. As I mentioned in my last solo, Episode 295, Self-Image - Building a Better You, I was influenced by my reading the book called "With Winning in Mind" by Lanny Bassham, a former Olympic champion gold medalist, who teaches people about how to become the best performer that they can become.The good news is that you can change self-image -- in today's episode, we go through the four steps of changing self-image. I highly recommend reading the book. I was just blown away by the book, and it's helped me get clear about my thinking. I recommend you tune into next week's solo as well (drops August 13), and I will take you through the self-image concept.You won't want to miss today's episode.Connect with Mike:Website: https://mikemalatesta.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikemalatesta/Please LIKE
In this episode, I continue on a theme I started back in Episode 291 (Why Self-Listen Always Beats Self-Talk") and I want to move toward "Self-Image." In my coaching business, I run into a lot of people who have good intentions, good ideas, but they struggle with how they talk to themselves and who they listen to. They struggle with their Self-Image. I recently read a book by Lanny Bassham called "With Winning in Mind" -- which I highly recommend -- that resonated with me -- how you talk to yourself, what you believe in, what your comfort zone is, and what makes you act like you. In this episode, I'm excited to share parts of it with you, and I hope it will resonate with you as well.You won't want to miss this episode!Connect with Mike:Website: https://mikemalatesta.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikemalatesta/Please LIKE
Happy 4th of July! This is a replay from the vault of a 2018 interview I did with Lanny Bassham. Here is a little about Lanny: 95% of all winning comes from the same 5% of the competitors. What makes them different than the rest of us? Their mental game is better than the others. Anyone can practice a sport or hobby and develop skill at that sport, but the ones with a better mental system will always win in the end. How does a person get a better mental game? My guest today started out as the guy least likely to get to the Olympics as a small kid in 6th grade. Fast forward to the 1976 Olympics where my guest, Lanny Bassham took the gold medal in small bore rifle shooting. But it wasn't an easy road. Lanny had previously gone to the '72 Olympics and choked in the gold medal match where he walked away confused and with a silver medal. In the next four years he would develop his trademarked mental management system that in the past 40 years has lead many students to world championships and other victories. How do we learn about this system? Lanny goes over the highlights from the system and his book he wrote, “With Winning in Mind” today with me. “With Winning in Mind” is mentioned several times in previous podcasts as one of the tools that took good shooters to make them great. This system also has been taught to special operations and Secret Service. You'll learn today why you should value the process and not the outcome, highlight solutions and not problems and finally how to coach your kids to be winners. I looked forward to speaking with Lanny for a long time. Here are the links mentioned in the podcast: Mental Management Systems Please SUBSCRIBE! Join the Nation!
