About the Author

Andrew D. Thompson is a high-performance coach and award-winning author who has been empowering people of all ages and walks of life including elite athletes, high performers, and business leaders over the last 25+ years. He specializes in helping people to improve focus, clarity, and resilience, get past their setbacks, failures, and fears, and perform at their best when it matters so they can overcome the barriers that block them from living their best and most fulfilling lives.

He is a former professional athlete, hospitality industry executive, and high-performance coach who survived a debilitating and life-threatening illness in 2016 that left him bedridden for months and took years to overcome.

Thompson’s unique life experiences helped him identify and develop the 12 key attributes of high performers, which he draws on to help elevate the lives of those looking to improve their circumstances and be at their best. These 12 key attributes were also critical to his survival, healing, and eventual recovery from the rare illness that ravaged his life for over eight years.

A High-Performing Mind
is Thompson’s award-winning, inspiring, and motivating self-improvement book that shows you how to develop your own high-performing mind so that you can expand your capabilities, get past your fears, perform at your best when it counts, and live a more enjoyable life with lasting success and happiness—no matter who you are.

“What you learn in your Hardest Moment is the foundation for your best results.”

“Adversity is almost certain to come along on the way to achieving our goals. By preparing for it and knowing how we will respond positively if it does, we're mentally stronger, more resilient, and able to keep going until we succeed.”
