Only, when you see progress.
Not sure if you’ve been watching the recent resurgence at Arsenal football club. But what you notice is that the fans are happy.
It might look to people on the outside that this happiness comes from liking mediocrity.
What’s really going on is we can see "progress".
In the years under "le boss", even though things seem better on results, There was a feeling that there wasn’t progress as it was the same every year.
A real-life version of Groundhog Day. Under the last manager, it seemed to be 11 men throwing the self destruct button to each other like a hot potato.
Seeing the same thing over and over again, it was true unhappiness and frustration at not seeing any progress.
With a new manager, we can see progress, an idea that’s being formed, a plan, a blueprint...
Progress becomes an inspiration and keeps people focused rather than wanting to put your foot through the tele...
What does any of this have to do with golf? We'll my inpatient club thrower (not seen that for years but would love to witness an angry golfer launching a club at a tree)
If we are making progress that’s when we are happy.
It doesn’t matter if your 2nd, 5th of 17th
The progress is where vision and excitement is...
If you can’t see any progress you lose focus and with that lack of focus lose the desire to keep going.
But progress however small (could even be as small as not saying 'I always do that on this hole"). Then that’s where you have happiness.
If you are currently not seeing the results you want in your golf it’s probably because you are not making progress or you are not aware of the progress you are making (if your consistent it’s more likely this)
What’s your starting point?
Where do you want to end up?
What's the plan?
Are you making progress?
If you can see the progress you will be happy or at least inspired to keep going,
If not,
You will throw in the towel.
Wanna know what we do...
For fat loss and distance it’s the Golfmob.
For injury, pain, anger and serious lack of focus, its Unbreakable Golfers
What you could do next is...
Find a way to check you are making progress in whatever it is you are struggling with,
Build a plan of action,
Take consistent actions on that plan until there is no more progress
Build a better plan.
If that’s golf performance it starts here...
