BE Your Best You

Happy Headcover

Be your best you and manage yourself.

Summer is here with lots of great tournaments to follow. Our intention to coach towards wellbeing and excellence feels more important than ever.

Of course we coach so players can perform better, but that’s only one aspect. The other is that, through the coaching and training, they integrate the skills, habits, and perspectives that make them grow in a positive way as a human being. Actually that aspect of coaching will always be the most important one for us. Trophies and fame mean nothing if you don’t feel good inside yourself.

Over the last few years, we have come across so many more players who are struggling. They express feeling lost, depressed, stressed, or unmotivated. Reading about Grayson Murray’s tragic end of life and Lexi Thompson’s courageous decision to retire at age 29, saying that life on tour is not that easy and words said can ‘hurt’. On the positive side, it’s wonderful to see Simone Biles resetting herself mentally and being back competing very successfully.

When you compete in the public arena, opinions and judgment are everywhere. The ability to self-reference becomes essential for a healthy self-esteem. Self-reference means to compare yourself to yourself, and knowing you can’t be anyone else but the best version of yourself.

Some of the skills we encourage and train, will help you to have a healthy relationship to competition and support self-referencing:

MY54 – what we call knowing the best version of yourself. You have a unique way to play great golf, so evaluate and inventory what that is.
>> Action: Write down five things you do when you play well.

Playing Focus – put your attention on the process of playing, instead of obsessing over the outcome – Think Box, Play Box, Memory Box, and Between Shots recharging.
>> Action: Next time you play, decide the most important thing to focus on that is under your control. Check up after the round if you stayed with it.

Emotional and Mind Management – learn the skills to manage the emotional variability on the course and learn to take charge of your Self-Talk.
>> Action: Next time you play, between shots, spend more time being grateful for the beauty of the course, your playing partners, your game. Also, spend some time being present feeling your breath, your feet walking, listening to the birds or the wind, or look at the trees, clouds, or nature around you.

Attention Coaches & Teachers
