Dr. Rotella has dedicated his life to helping coaches, athletes, business leaders, and salespeople use their minds and emotions to take them to the top of their chosen professions.
In his demo video, Dr. Rotella addresses leaders of all kinds. He opens by saying, “Don’t ever forget that the way you see someone, the way you believe in someone, is going to have a huge impact on how they live and perform for you.” He adds that “a lot of people are just dying to find someone who believes.”
He goes on to say that there are many leaders who do not believe in their students, athletes, or employees, and that can affect their success. “Surround yourself with people who believe in you, and make sure you believe in people that you hire,” he says. “The quality of the feedback you give people you believe in you different… the emotions you use when you’re talking to people you believe in is different.”
He then tells the story of a convention speaker who summarized his entire hour-long speech in one and a half minutes by saying that success in sports consists of three bones: a wishbone to dream on, a backbone to get through the tough times that you’ll face if you want to be a champion and a funny bone to get through the tough times that are going to break your heart. “It’s amazing, 30-something years later after hear that talk, I tell people, ‘That guy knew what he was talking about,’” Dr. Rotella says.

Your 15th Club: The Inner Secret to Great Golf
All golfers have fourteen clubs in their bag, but the real winners have a little something extra — that mental attitude that puts their game above the others. Dr. Bob Rotella, author of the bestselling book Golf Is Not a Game of Perfect, brings together his skills and years of experience as a golf psychologist to give readers the insight they need to improve their game — before they ever step up to the tee.
The 15th Club is the tool that golf stars like Tiger Woods use to block out negative thoughts, doubt, and fear. It is what allows champions to perform at their peak both in practice and during the game. Golfers who lack it find the game elusive and frustrating. Confident golfers play the game as they have always sensed they could play it. Now, one of the most renowned golf writers offers up the foolproof methods that will allow golfers at any skill level to give their game that extra boost.
Dr. Rotella provides tips and techniques for how to learn from better golfers, overcome fear in pressure situations, and keep a clear mind, no matter what. He tells golfers that inner arrogance is not a negative trait, but instead is something that can improve performance on and off the course. In order to perform at peak levels and achieve your goals, you must believe that you can win. Positive thinking is an incredibly powerful tool, and it can change the way a player approaches the game. Knowing how to focus on the challenge at hand and understanding your own talent are crucial parts of becoming a confident golfer.
Dr. Rotella provides a detailed plan that anyone can use to build the self-image of a winner. He offers a one-year schedule in diary and calendar form that will incorporate the daily mental routines that he assigns to players on the PGA Tour. This is how the pros learn to ignore negative influences, focus on productive advice, and take pride in their abilities.
Your 15th Club will tell golfers of all abilities how to develop the confidence they need to maximize their physical gifts and defeat the Tigers of their world, whether that world is the PGA Tour or the third flight of the club championship.

Putting Out of Your Mind
This old adage is familiar to all golfers but is especially resonant with Dr. Bob Rotella, the bestselling author of Golf Is Not a Game of Perfect and one of the foremost golf authorities today. In Putting Out of Your Mind, Rotella offers entertaining and instructive insight into the key element of a winning game — great putting. He here reveals the unique mental approach that great putting requires and helps golfers of all levels master this essential skill.
Much like Golf Is Not a Game of Perfect and Golf Is a Game of Confidence, Putting Out of Your Mind is an informative and valuable guide to achieving a better golf game. While most golfers spend their time trying to perfect their swing so they can drive the ball farther, Rotella encourages them to concentrate on their putting — the most crucial yet often overlooked aspect of the game. Great players are not only aware of the importance of putting, they go out of their way to master it, and mastery can only begin with the understanding of the attitude needed to be a better putter. Rotella′s mental rules have helped some of the greatest golfers in the world become champion putters and, for the first time, are now available to golfers everywhere.
With everything from true-to-life stories of such greats as Davis Love III, David Duval, and Brad Faxon to dozens of game-changing practice drills, Putting Out of Your Mind is the new bible of putting for amateurs and pros alike.
Golf is Not a Game of Perfect
Dr. Bob Rotella is one of the hottest performance consultants in America today. Among his many professional clients are Nick Price (last year′s Player of the Year), Tom Kite, Davis Love III, Pat Bradley, Brad Faxon, John Daly, and many others.

The most wonderful aspect of it all is that it is done in a conversational fashion, in a dynamic blend of anecdote and lesson. And, as some of the world′s greatest golfers will attest, the results are spectacular. Golfers will improve their golf game and have more fun playing.
