We are more than half-way through\u00a0summer golf. I have been hearing from a lot of golfers who are unhappy with their golf games. When you are totally focused on trying to achieve your goals or\u00a0expectations, your golf games will suffer. Here are some strategies to remember to get you back on track.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Golf is just a game.<\/li>\n
  2. Playing golf is what we do for fun.<\/li>\n
  3. All golfers, pro or amateur are\u00a0playing the game they love.<\/li>\n
  4. Participate by playing golf as if you are a kid again.<\/li>\n
  5. Change your limiting beliefs and you change your golf game.<\/li>\n
  6. On the course, play the game and not\u00a0golf swing.<\/li>\n
  7. Plan your strategy before you get to the course. Stick to it.<\/li>\n
  8. Enjoy the process of swinging instead of trying to make it happen.<\/li>\n
  9. Constantly imagine the perfect rhythm and tempo of each shot.<\/li>\n
  10. Make up your mind to enjoy what you are doing each moment.<\/li>\n
  11. Give 100% intention and attention to every shot.<\/li>\n
  12. Treat each length putt\u00a0with the same pre-shot routine.<\/li>\n
  13. Validate your small as well as large successes.<\/li>\n
  14. Enjoy your excellence when it occurs.<\/li>\n
  15. Think thoughts that will produce exciting and rewarding shots.<\/li>\n
  16. Accept mishits with dignity and humility.<\/li>\n
  17. Know that feeling frustration and looking foolish is part of the game.<\/li>\n
  18. When the hole is over, leave it and move on.<\/li>\n
  19. Enhance your self-esteem by smiling and enjoying the game.<\/li>\n
  20. Your golf game doesn\u2019t reflect on you as a person, but your attitude does.<\/li>\n
  21. Treat yourself on course as you would your best friend.<\/li>\n
  22. Golf is just a game.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
