-quote-
"According to the Optimum Arousal Theory each athlete will perform at their best if their level of arousal or competitive anxiety falls within their optimum functioning zone. The challenge for the coach is to determine the athlete's zone and identify the techniques that will place the athlete in this zone prior to competition.

This is a concept from Sports Psychology, first mentioned by a psychologist called D.O. Hebb in 1955. It shows that the Optimal Arousal is a balance between Excitement and Relaxation and between Boredom and Anxiety, between Under- and Overstimulation: here is the Optimum Stress Zone - Quality, Creativity, Flexibility.
