David Nurse didn’t start his journey with dreams of becoming a bestselling author or a top NBA mindset coach.
He simply wanted to help people get better — not through pep talks, but through real connection.
“You’re not stuck. You just haven’t taken the next step yet,” David often says.
Nurse believes success doesn’t come from shouting motivational quotes — it comes from listening, understanding what’s holding someone back, and helping them uncover what’s already inside.
His coaching style is rooted in presence. He asks better questions instead of offering fast fixes. That’s why elite athletes, CEOs, and everyday people trust him — they’re not looking for hype, they’re looking for perspective.
Whether it’s a shooting slump or a life crisis, Nurse brings calm, clarity, and deep insight. He believes transformation begins the moment a person truly feels heard.
Pivot & Go — A Book About Shifting Forward
In Pivot & Go, David Nurse invites readers to pause and ask:
“Where am I now — and where do I actually want to go?”
This isn’t a book about burning everything down. It’s about strategic, intentional shifts — small, consistent actions that open the door to meaningful growth.
What sets this book apart?
It’s useful and doable in addition to being inspirational. Every chapter provides resources, insights, and mentality techniques gleaned directly from Nurse’s interactions with NBA players, corporate executives, and his own personal failures. The book contains:
- 29 daily chapters to spark mindset shifts
- Clear action steps to build clarity and momentum
- Journal prompts for deep self-reflection
- NBA-level performance tools, adapted for everyday life
Each chapter opens with a real-life example — proof that growth isn’t always loud or dramatic. Often, it’s quiet, internal, and deeply personal.
But beyond the content itself, what truly distinguishes Pivot & Go is its structure. The pacing feels like a personal conversation, not a lecture. You don’t just read advice, you interact with it. Each entry feels timely, digestible, and actionable, even for readers who don’t consider themselves “self-help” people. Nurse doesn’t ask readers to become someone new; he simply helps them uncover what’s already within.
From NBA Players to Personal Purpose
David Nurse has worked with top NBA stars — people under extreme pressure to perform. But what sets him apart isn’t his access to athletes. It’s his ability to help them overcome inner obstacles and develop a mindset rooted in purpose.
In his coaching and speaking, he emphasizes that true success doesn’t come from motivation alone. It comes from clarity, daily habits and aligned action
He doesn’t promise overnight change. He helps people shift their perspective. His core principles:
- Trust the timing — don’t rush the process
- Stay open — closed doors can point to better paths
- Embrace discomfort — it often signals growth
- Prioritize purpose — not popularity
- Reflect and adjust — gently, often
Nurse teaches that surrendering control isn’t weakness — it’s awareness. And awareness leads to clarity. That’s when the right next step becomes obvious.
