Publisher's summary

Don't just be good - you can be great!

Optimum Drive is the complete step-by-step guide to maximizing human performance in any endeavor you choose to conquer.

Attaining peak performance: Optimum Drive is a motivational audiobook that uses top-level race-car driving as a metaphor for peak performance. As a professional racing driver and a driving coach for more than 20 years, author Paul F. Gerrard gives you his unique perspective on what causes people to stagnate with the idea of being merely good when each of us has the potential to be great.

Gerrard believes peak performance is within our grasp. He lays out his step-by-step process for attaining peak performance with detailed nuance threaded throughout. If you have ever been curious about maximizing your own ultimate potential, Optimum Drive is for you!

Mental toughness: Greatness is as hard to quantify as it is to achieve...probably not a coincidence. In this audiobook, Optimum Drive, professional driver Gerrard helps you understand the mental toughness that it takes to reach that greatness. He starts off by taking you onto the track as he explores what driving at 200 mph can teach us about who we are. Using his experiences from behind the wheel at death-defying speeds, Gerrard breaks down the psychology of driving, what it takes, and how we can use it to achieve greatness in life.

Flow psychology and staying in the zone: The key to the mental toughness that Gerrard believes it takes to achieve peak performance is the nirvana-like sensation of flow psychology or being in the zone. Flow psychology, or being in the zone, is a mental state in which one who is performing an activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and joy. It is through flow psychology that Gerrard introduces a blend of holistic mind-set combined with a competitive edge, which is essential to successful professionl adriving. This mix of guts, tenacity, and endurance is the foundation of Gerrard’s philosophy for attaining greatness.

Why you should listen to Optimum Drive:

  • This audiobook is not just about learning how to drive race cars. Use it for anything.
  • Auto racing (by far the richest sport in the world) has invested more money evaluating human performance than any other sport.
  • Optimum Drive is a step-by-step guide to unlock your hidden potential.
  • Former Top Gear US Stig Paul F. Gerrard has taught and refined his principles for more than 20 years with thousands of successful students.
