"The last few minutes before a major challenge can be terrifying. Ever wished you knew how to make sure you ace a test, audition, or interview? Journalist Daniel McGinn dives into the latest psychological research and interviews athletes, soldiers, entertainers, and others who, despite years of practice and enviable track records, will ultimately be judged on their ability to deliver a solid performance when it's their turn to shine. McGinn separates the facts from the old wives' tales and shares strategies for activating your talent, optimizing your emotions, and getting psyched up to take the spotlight.
