In Bounce, Matthew Syed quotes Arsenal manager Arsene
Wenger, one of the most successful football (soccer) coaches in the English
Premier League, on how athletes must approach competition:
'To perform to your maximum you have to teach yourself to
believe with an intensity that goes way beyond logical justification. No top
performer has lacked this capacity for irrational optimism; no sportsman has
played to his potential without the ability to remove doubt from his mind.'
