WHAT IS PX2®?

Brian Goodell

• Athletes can struggle to overcome barriers in

their own minds because of deep-seated

beliefs which directly impact their

performance.

• They may become frustrated and fearful

about their ability to achieve their goals and

may even sabotage their own performances

when they are in situations outside of their

“Comfort Zones”, especially at higher level

competitions, such as the Olympic Games.

Brian Goodell

• What I do is teach them how their minds work

and how to change their beliefs, habits and

attitudes at the subconscious level, working from

the inside out, so that they can relax and feel

comfortable in new situations they’ve never

been in before but need to go through to be

successful.

Brian Goodell

• What makes me different is that I have actually

used this 12 Step scientifically proven process

myself to win gold medals at the 1976 Olympics

and 1979 Pan American Games. I also used

these techniques to win 10 US National and 9

NCAA championships, as well as break

numerous World and American records in

swimming.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT….

….For Young People

To Learn

How Their Minds Work;

and to Learn the

Discipline of Managing

their Minds?

IT IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE….

• Their current beliefs and attitudes shape their

expectations for the future.

• Being in control of what they think,

they have the power to change the way

they live their lives.

• Once they understand how their mind

works, they have self-confidence,

self-esteem and a strong ethical center.

• PX2® is a life-changing experience!

Not just for teens but for the entire family:

promotes positive communication among

family members, building stronger relationships.

Facilitated Reflections Even though I think I am listening when

someone is talking, I know I am also

blending what I think they are saying

into their words. What spin do I typically

place on compliments directed at me?

(Do I typically reject of accept

compliments with my self-talk?)

Make a list of ways that people put

themselves down

When I find myself doing something that

seems normal to me, what words do I

use to say “That’s like me”?

When I find myself doing something that

seems not normal for me, what words

do I use to say “That’s not like me”?

“Since our retreat in May I have been

able channel all of my pre race anxiousness and

use it in a way that has lead to a lot of

success. Previously I would think about what I

hoped happened during a race but now I am

able to use stronger visualization techniques

and see the race unfolding the way I want long

before I get in the water.

“I have been swimming at a very high

level since I’ve been 15 years old but since May

I’ve had a new sense of confidence due to my

visualization and PX2®. Thanks!!”
