Top athletes have great anticipation
     Top athletes throughout the world report that intuition and mental projection helps them in many ways.
     The ability to correctly anticipate what your opponent is going to do gives you a definite edge in competition. In fact, the ability to use your intuition to get information and to anticipate future events is the real secret to outstanding success in every area of life. If you can use your intuition to sense the best training routine, you will get into better shape more quickly and easily than if you are limited only to random guessing. Any time you can sense what other people are thinking or what they are likely to do, you know exactly how to prepare so that you will be ready for them.
     Imagine sensing what someone is willing to pay for your services. You'd know exactly what price you can negotiate. Imagine sensing what opposing players’ game plans are. And imagine being able to send a message to your teammates: To let them know mentally what you are going to do next. Basketball player Walt Frazier said that he and teammate Bill Bradley could do this. “Sometimes he has passed the ball before I've taken the first step. It's like telepathy,” Frazier said in the book Clyde, which he wrote with Joe Jares.

Many athletes use intuition
     There are many real-life examples of athletes who use intuition:
     Sportscaster Frank Gifford often speaks of the great quarterbacks in the National Football League having the ability to “sense” when a tackler is rushing up behind them and moving out of harm's way at the final moment. Gifford's broadcast partner Dan Dierdorf agreed during a broadcast on December 31, 1994, noting that when he asked the great ones how they knew to move, they said they didn't know it was just instinct.
     Race driver Emerson Fittipaldi has talked about how premonition works for him. When asked how he knew how fast to go into a corner during the Indianapolis 500, Fittipaldi told interviewer Charlie Rose on the Public Broadcasting System, June 3, 1993, “You must know what the car will do before it does it.”
     Muhammad Ali made many accurate predictions about his fights. He often ignored the advice of his trainers and fought the way he felt he should.
     Soccer great Pele said he played his first World Cup game in 1958 entirely in a trance, as if the future were unfolding before his eyes. Pele's team won, largely due to his efforts, according to Peter Bodo and David Hirshey, authors of Pele's New World.
     Middle linebacker Ray Nitschke said in his book, Mean on Sunday, that Cleveland Brown fullback Jim Brown “had a sixth sense that told him how the defense would react.”
     Pitcher Sandy Koufax wrote about the extraordinary rapport he had with catcher John Roseboro in his autobiography, Koufax. “Not only did we have the same idea at the same moment,” he said about one risky decision about what pitch to throw, “we even had the same thoughts about what could happen back in the clubhouse” if it turned out to be the wrong decision.
