Mental Training and Your Life

For those of you that are knee deep in snow, you can do a lot to improve your mental game for golf during the off season by applying the principles of "The Mental Keys to Improve Your Golf " to your life. Even if you live where the weather is warm and sunny, you can work on improving your mental game everyday by applying my book to your life.

The same negative emotions that upset your chemistry while playing golf are present in your daily life. The only difference is that during a round of golf the feedback is immediate and easy to see because it affects your performance and score. The negative emotions in your life may take days, weeks, months or even years to catch up with you in one way or another. As a result, you pay little attention to the negative emotions in your daily life and allow them to continue to exist.

If you have a strong desire to be in control of your emotions on the golf course in order to lower your score, make it a habit to reflect on the Daily Affirmation in my book several times a day every day. When you do, follow Shakespeare's advice in Hamlet, "To Thine Own Self Be True." Without being true to yourself, the Daily Affirmation of "I am always truthful, positive and helping others" will only be eight hollow words without meaning to you. Empty words will not increase your self-awareness of the negative emotions that are on your tape.

However, if you are true to yourself and make it a habit to reflect on the Daily Affirmation throughout the day, you will become very aware whenever you attach negative emotions to the facts in your life. Once your awareness of what is on your tape increases, then you can start to reprogram your tape and stop attaching negative emotions to the facts you encounter in your daily life.

Your tape wants to do its job which is to have you repeat or make similar responses to what you have done in the past. If you have fear or get angry in your daily life, you will have fear and get angry on the golf course. Your fear and anger will cost you strokes when you play golf.

However, if you take the time to mentally train yourself to reduce the fear and anger you may experience in your daily life, it will become easy to do it while you are playing golf. Once you reduce or eliminate the negative emotions from recurring on your tape, you will be amazed at how well you can play golf and how much happier and productive your life off the golf course will become.

If you are knee deep in snow, you have plenty of time to reread "The Mental Keys" several times and work on reducing or eliminating the negative emotions from your tape in your daily life. If you do, your mental game will be much improved when your golf season begins.

The same holds true for you if you are blessed with good weather. If you desire to keep improving your mental game, make the time to reread "The Mental Keys" and apply the Daily Affirmation to your life.

If you have not read "The Mental Keys To Improve Your Golf", you will benefit greatly from my book by seeing the whole picture instead of just pieces contained in my mental tips.
I guarantee it! So order now and lower your score.
