Confidence is either unwavering or goes up and down depending on what you have just done.
Think about missing a 3 foot left to right putt, how is your confidence on the next putt that's similar, are you confident or fearful?
Around people you've only just met, are you uncomfortable or calm?
What about taking on a new challenge, does your gut fill with uneasiness or do your balls tingle with excitement?
Confidence comes down to the reps you have done. If you have done the work, you will be more confident, If you have the experience you will have confidence, this is all because of the thoughts that are going through your head.
So either do more reps, work and gain more experience or
Have your thoughts give you confidence rather than fear.
You do that by questioning your thoughts and the "meaning of the previous experience".
Our minds give meaning to what we have experienced, positive meaning = positive experience, negative meaning = negative experience
How do you change the meaning of past experiences,......
Questions, all good coaching is asking questions,
Asking the questions of the body,
Asking questions of the mind
Asking questions on the golf course..
The simplest way to do that is to ask the right questions at the right time and allow the mind to open up.
