Mental toughness for the season
September 22, 2006

How Tough Are You?

In the field of battle the player must be ready to win. There can be no second thoughts. You must be prepared to annihilate your opponent, completely and totally. You can have no thoughts of mercy and no thoughts of concern for your opponent.

When you pick up a cue you must become a total warrior, a complete fighting machine, who is ready to fight to the finish in every contest.

When you are ahead eight to nothing in a race to nine you must be as fierce as if the score was tied on the hill.

At every moment of your day, when walking, when sitting, when talking, when eating, when sleeping, you must be prepared to destroy anyone who engages you in a game of pool.

The pinnacle of success finds the player in a constant state of readiness. You will fight to the finish with only one survivor in the end. This readiness is what separates you from the others.

The Mid Term Exam

One of my most effective exercises has been The Mid Term Exam. I have used this to measure my level of play and to increase my focus and concentration. The Mid Term also strengthens your will skills, conditions you to pressure, and helps you learn how to close out games with a strong performance. This is the finest exercise ever designed for players like us. Read what one fellow master wrote about the Mid Term Exam.


A letter from a student

I just got back in on Sunday and started lesson 6 on Monday. Wow, the mid term exam really humbled me. I honestly thought that i was a solid c player but after the exam I’m an F player. My four mid term exam scores were 6, 0, 0, 1. That’s horrible. The biggest thing I learned from the exam is how important the break is. My break was killing me. I wasn’t scattering the balls and left clusters and I never made a ball in except once the nine ball. I have to practice my break but I never had any instruction on how to break properly. My determination was solid I never felt like quitting I honestly want to keep doing the exam all night long until I succeed, but I know you have a pattern for us. I did have some opportunity to have runs not easy ones but I will hesitate on the shot and miss and kill the drive. But I like the fact that it puts pressure on me and it tests my will skill big time. I know that it will strengthen my will skills and I will improve on how to deal with pressure. I’m shocked by my scores and embarrassed and I’m sorry if I have disappointed you or let you down but i never expected to do or be so horrible. I don’t know how I’m going to fix it but I promise like I have done, I will keep on shooting my life away until I reached my goals period. Thanks for listening.

The Masters lead you to excellence

This student is in level six. He is very close to breaking through. I put the Mid Term at this level so the players will see how important it is to master cue ball speed, which comes in level seven, eight and nine. The Mid Term has all the ingredients to help you with your complete game.

When I was on the road, I would play anyone if I was putting up 16’s or better in the Mid Term. You an find The Mid Term in The Bronze level of MMU.

Here is a one week offer to you. This offer will be available until the end of September. If you buy two dvd’s, any choice, I will give you a lifetime membership in the Bronze Level of MMU. That is a two hundred dollar bonus just for placing a one hundred dollar order! You will take sixty incredible classes and pass the final exam and receive an associates degree from MMU.
