Pressure Point

**“Paddy Steinfort’s four-part method brings together the best of modern psychology and neuroscience under a single system.”— Steven C. Hayes, Founder of ACT and author of A Limited Mind From performance expert Paddy Steinfort comes the category-defining book on why capable people fall apart when the stakes are highest, and a simple four-step system to perform when it matters most.** Having guided the world’s greatest athletes, first responders, and military leaders during the most pressure-filled moments in their careers, Paddy Steinfort has discovered that the typical wisdom to “clear your mind” and “just stay positive” doesn’t work. Drawing on his own psychology research at Penn, the latest in neuroscience and performance science, and behind-the-scenes stories from coaching MVPs and Olympic champions, advising the US Army and hospital teams, and top-tier business leaders, Steinfort created the FACE Pressure Framework to give us tools for navigating high-stress situations: • Feel what pressure is doing to your body - and use it, rather than fight it. • Aim your attention toward what matters most, instead of whatever’s loudest. • Commit to a clear next move, even when the path through the pressure isn’t. • Execute under fire - and still stay loose enough to enjoy the unpredictable. Whether the pressure you're facing is in a boardroom, on a playing field, or around a crucial conversation that's been keeping you up at night, Pressure Point provides a research-backed framework for navigating these moments with clarity and confidence.
