Philosophy

Jim McLean taught me that the game is divided into four areas: Long game, Short game, Management, Mental.

Each of these areas will be addressed during the improvement PROcess

First, what is your goal? What are you trying achieve?
Know that faith in GOD matters
Know that GENETICS matter
TRUST the IMPROVEMENT Process (your focus should be on improving yourself)
CONTROL only what you can CONTROL (starts and ends with you)
Surround yourself with positive influences & emulate the greatness from all that you meet
Be POSITIVE (always keep this perspective)
Give EFFORT–more than you think you are capable–ALL THE TIME
Expect to win and learn
Always LEARN (vital if you want to grow)
Must love CHALLENGES
Be AWARE
EVALUATE experiences
Know that there will be ADVERSITY–learn from it –but more importantly FIND A WAY!
Make ADJUSTMENTS
LOVE to WIN; HATE to lose
MUST have the WILL to win
Prepare with URGENCY–like it will be your last tourney–it is your last day to prepare
PERSISTENCE –remember incremental improvements. Your daily actions reap long-term rewards
EMOTIONS are used to motivate–if you LOVE it, then, you move towards it, protect it, and enjoy it. If you don’t like it, you move away from it as far as possible. EMOTIONS are part of the journey —MOTIVATORS & enhancers.
Use MOMENTUM to springboard you forward
