"Before working with Dr. Greene, I was too often preoccupied with the "what-if's" while I was playing. However, through his methods of centering and visualization, among others, my concentration and sense of focus has since drastically improved my performance on many levels. This book is a "must-have" for anyone who wants to beat their own mind-games!" -- Julia Pilant, Principal Horn, Syracuse Symphony, Musician of the Year

"The key, I discovered, is not getting rid of the things that happen in stressful situations, because that's unrealistic, but instead learning how to work with them positively. This man really is incredible. His teaching... has really helped me pull everything into my own sphere of control. Working with him has been one of the most productive experiences of my life." -- Pat Gonsalves, trumpet, Oberlin student
