Getting to Neutral

In this breakthrough book, the author of national bestseller It Takes What It Takes provides life-changing guidance for navigating adversity, revealing how to apply neutral thinking to help us through the most challenging times.

The most trusted mental coach in sports, Trevor Moawad revolutionized competition with his concept of neutral thinking: a performance strategy using a judgment-free approach to coolly assess situations in high-pressure moments. Top athletes, elite coaches, and successful businesspeople have relied on his training methods to help them reach the top of their respective games. From the World Cup to the Super Bowl to the c-suite, Trevor’s clients are using neutral thinking to perform their best.

But in late 2019, Trevor discovered his method works far beyond the playing field when he was faced with his biggest challenge: cancer. In the following months, as the pandemic went into full swing, Trevor was in and out of the hospital for treatments. With the world and his life in chaos, he relied on neutral thinking to help him stay calm, collected, and sane.

Filled with personal anecdotes and insights drawn from interviews with some of the world’s best athletes, coaches, and leaders, Getting to Neutral teaches readers how to apply neutral thinking to everyday life—from living through a global crisis to a health emergency, from a big game to an important meeting, and everything in between. Raw, inspirational, and unforgettable, Getting to Neutral is for anyone looking for peace in a turbulent world.
