The Mental Game
Winning isn’t just about skill. It’s about mindset. It’s about health. It’s about how you show up every single day—on the field, in the gym, at work, and in life.
I built The Mental Game Performance Coaching because I know firsthand: it’s never just the physical that makes or breaks you. It’s everything behind it—your habits, your headspace, your health, your hustle. And too many people are training only half the equation.
My journey started in competitive sports and education, coaching athletes, leading schools, and building teams. Over time, I saw the same pattern everywhere: the ones who rose to the top weren't just the fastest or strongest—they were the ones who mastered their mental and emotional game.
That’s why The Mental Game goes beyond traditional "mindset coaching."
We train the whole competitor:
✅ Mindset — building confidence, focus, and resilience
✅ Health — creating strength and energy from the inside out
✅ Nutrition — fueling your mind and body for elite performance
✅ Life — setting real goals, taking real action, and dominating every arena you're in
My approach is simple: real talk, real strategies, real results. No fluff. No cookie-cutter programs. If you’re tired of surface-level motivation and you’re ready to actually change how you think, live, and compete—you’re in the right place.
This is The Mental Game.
And it’s where real champions are built..

About me
My name is Daniel Baugh, and I believe greatness isn't given — it's built from the inside out. I'm the founder of The Mental Game Performance Coaching, a system built for competitors who refuse to settle for average — in sports, in health, or in life.
My journey has been anything but easy, and that's exactly why I'm here. I spent 15+ years as an educator, athletic coach, school leader, and now a General Manager in professional sports. I’ve built programs from the ground up, led teams to championships, and helped turn failing systems into winning cultures. I've seen firsthand: talent fades without discipline, and pressure will break you if your mindset isn't bulletproof.
But my proudest titles aren't on any business card — they're Husband and Dad. My wife and my kids are my "why." They're the reason I show up every single day with fire, focus, and fight. I know what it's like to have people counting on you — to feel the weight and still find a way to level up. That's the mindset I coach.
At The Mental Game, I don't just teach you how to perform — I help you rebuild the way you think, train, and live. We work on mastering the mind, sharpening the body, and creating the life you were meant for. If you're ready to dominate your field — and your future — you're in the right place.
