Motivation and the Olympic high jump
Charles Austin connects sports psychology with his own path to Olympic achievement, drawing on his experience as the 1996 high jump gold medalist and Olympic record holder. The book frames “head games” as ways of motivating yourself toward goals, making personal drive the bridge between its athletic subject and its broader focus on success. Its short length and first-person premise keep the scope centered on Austin’s journey and the role he assigns to self-motivation.
