OH State Champ Eddie Kessen - Wrestling Mindset Success Story

Gene Zannetti talks with Ohio state champion Eddie Kessen about starting mindset training skeptically at the start of his junior year after his parents suggested it, how the click came about four months in when he stopped comparing himself to others and started focusing only on what he could control, winning the state title his junior year walking up to the mat with almost complete nothingness in his head, how the nerves disappeared so completely that he sometimes had to manufacture them just to feel ready, and his plan to continue mindset training with coach Justin as he heads to wrestle Division 1 at Central Michigan.
