My journey with the mental game started 20+ years ago when I was an aspiring elite hockey player struggling to fight off the allure of results and get dialed in, day-in and day-out.

At 16 years old I made the jump to junior hockey and instantly became consumed with the shiny objects – the results, goals, and expectations.

I received a lot of cliché advice from parents, coaches and teammates.

I tried to just focus on the process, but I constantly felt the weight of results.

I tried to not worry about mistakes, but as soon as adversity hit, my confidence would drop and everything spiraled out of control.

And even the most over simplistic and ridiculous advice of being positive didn’t work. In fact, it made things worse. The more I was inconsistent, the more frustrated I became with the game I loved.

The good news was my struggle created a huge void. I needed to find a better way. I wanted to be able to figure out a way that I could get dialed in day-in and day-out.

This is what eventually led me to do 12 years of University, read 100’s of books on the topic, and learn directly from some of the top human performance experts in the world.

I pretty much turned into a mad scientist trying to crack the code of the mental game. I merged my athletic, academic and applied experiences to create my own mindset training process – the CEP Mindset System.

Over the last decade, my team and I at CEP Mindset have been constantly innovating and refining this system with 10,000’s of clients.

As a result, we have developed a system that works. Because of this, we have become one of the largest Mental Performance Coaching Firms in the world.

My book, Mindset First, is the accumulation of all that work and the last 20+ years of my life.

Whether you read my book, listen to me on stage, or work with me 1-on-1, you can expect to challenge the status quo, think differently, and find practical ways to improve your mental game so you can achieve Consistent Elite Performance.
