Críticas:

''As I reflect back on my personal quest to develop character through the sport of football, I greatly identify with the wisdom and principles of this book. Stillpower is a profound playbook for the athletic and life journey. Garret Kramer shows us that a person becomes what he thinks in his heart, not in his head.'' -- Tyrone Keys "Super Bowl-winning defensive end for the Chicago Bears, founder of All-Sports Community Services"

"I believe the principles introduced in" Stillpower "are the future of athletic mental performance; actually, performance of any kind. This book helped me to recognize that in grinding so hard, I was reducing my chances to perform up to my capabilities. I now see why the game wasn't always as enjoyable as I wanted it to be, and my 'effort' rarely feels like work. In "Stillpower, " Garret Kramer offers hope for discovering our potential to perform freely, regardless of the circumstances of our lives. I hope, like me, you find this perspective to be extremely valuable.''

--Zach Parise, New Jersey Devils Captain and member of the US Olympic Hockey Team

Garret Kramer has overturned much of the conventional wisdom about coaching and performance . . . "Stillpower" is an insightful and profound book.
Daniel H. Pink, "New York Times" bestselling author of "Drive "and "A Whole New Mind""

A clear and quiet state of mind isn t just a key element in sports; it s also important in finance, relationships, and life. The principles introduced in this book apply to so much more than athletics.
Jean Chatzky, author of the "New York Times "bestseller "Money 911""

In covering sports for more than twenty years, I am always looking for what separates the good athletes from the great ones. Garret Kramer looks outside the box when it comes to athletics . . ." Stillpower" is a must-read for someone serious about performance, or for the casual fan who wants to learn what really makes athletes tick on and off the field.
