-Commitment: being able to stick to tasks
-Control: believing that people control their own destiny

Written for coaches looking to improve the performance of individuals and teams, Developing Mental Toughness contains practical guidance on techniques that will provide skills for responding to and harnessing the effects of stress and pressure.
