The human desire to increase their performance is perhaps an eternal motivation. However, defining human performance in itself is a rather perplexing question. Surely, when raising the topic, sports may be the first thing that comes to mind. Sports are an exaggerated version of normal everyday life, a noble struggle placed within frameworks and rules according to Coubertin's traditions.
Examining the question from a wider perspective, performance is a part of everyday life and appears in all areas of life. Performance is a general term that refers to the behavior of humans or animals, as well as larger entities such as countries, communities, and organizations. Human performance is perhaps the physical manifestation of an internal, creative driving force, through which the individual strives to become better than themselves or others. It is an integral part of daily life, ranging from achieving various goals to sports performance, artistic performance, and the world of work.
The re-evaluation of performance in today's culture can lead to extreme reactions. Our performance-based world challenges both society and the individual to different coping mechanisms. Some may take up the gauntlet and respond to the challenges with adaptive reactions based on the available opportunities. Others may be crushed by the burden, and some may overcompensate and choose a path that is harmful to their mental or physical health.
The goal of the MCC Center for Sports and Performance is to introduce the field of performance psychology as a new area of science in Hungary, utilizing knowledge from sports psychology. Additionally, it aims to promote competitive sports, recreational sports, and the idea of a sound mind in a sound body, as well as the spread of physical activity as medicine.

Menthal Performance Enhancement
An avearge recreational athlete trains their muscles, hones their technique, develops their strength, speed and atamina up to 3 to 5 times per week. And we can go on about those factors, we do our exercises for. If we are being honest with ourselves, we spend 3 to 6 hours every week with developing our muscles, wich adds up 12 to 18 hours per month and 144-216 hours per year. Yet the very mechanisms that operates all these functions, our soul and the "training" of our menthal capabilities remain neglected in our daily lives. Today there is no question about the fact that peak performance is more than only the sum of physical abilities. In today's world the psychological factors are much more important than they have ever been before. Peak performance is a psychophisiological phenomena, which besides pshysical performance demands psychological preparation as well. The basis to achieve peak performance are vigilance, focused attention and a calm mind. This idea is closest to the notion of the Flow-experience drawn up by Mihály Csíkszentmihályi: during peak performance, the person is joyfully immersed in the activity they are doing; this is when you feel efficient and focused. Athletes need a mental training plan, and they must prepare mentally with the same method as they do physically during training. In the best case, this preparation is an enjoyable spiritual adventure, part of a serious personality development in order to achieve higher and higher performance. Along the way, the traveler faces many other questions: he considers his true goals, fights his anxieties, learns more effective communication, acquires assertive behavior (learns to stand up for himself), corrects mistakes in his movement pattern, prepares for his next competitions, and the list goes on. The athlete must constantly practice and refine his psychological preparation in order to take advantage of his potential and act consistently. During the sports psychology preparation, the athlete acquires abilities and skills, the purpose of which is to enhance performance and optimize performance. The aim of the seminar is to introduce the relationship between emotions and ideal performance according to the arousal theory. Interpretation of the psychological profile of peak performance, treatment of anxiety, maladaptive behaviors and thoughts, learning about the possibilities of developing attention and concentration. In addition to psychoeducation, among the psychoregulation and performance enhancement methods used in sports psychology, we adopt simple and quickly applicable techniques that the student can put into action the next day in order to improve their performance.
