It\u2019s a good time to ask yourself if you have all the mental golf game tools in your toolbox to play at your peak performance level.<\/p>\n<p>December is a month of reflection and preparation. It is the arbitrary end of a cycle we call one year. This natural cycle is one\u00a0way to measure your progress in your golf game. This is an opportunity to look back and measure the\u00a0successes, the missed opportunities, and the memorable moments. It is a good time to review and set your intention to make next year even more fun and satisfying than the past year.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Change your thinking and you can change your game<\/em><\/strong><strong><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Science has shown that negative thoughts and emotions create habitual patterns of stress which can reduce your performance abilities and drain your energy.<\/p>\n<p>Be aware of your personal thoughts of lack and limitation. Everything you desire is possible, except when your limited thinking keeps those possibilities from happening.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps now is the time to think in a different way to change what you are doing. Instead of trying to control your golf swing, change your pattern to just trust and allow it to happen. Allow yourself to receive the success and enjoyment you deserve.<\/p>\n<p>Stay in the present by letting go of how you are scoring. Do not be attached to the pattern of focusing on the outcome. If you spend too much time in the future, the present will slip through your fingers. Life and golf are meant to be enjoyed. Put all of your focus on what you are experiencing in the present moment. It will create a wonderful memory.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong><em>Play \u201cin the zone\u201d with Joan<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong><em>Entrain Your Heart &amp; Mind for Peak Performances<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>To train your brain to play your best golf, listen to Positive Mental Imagery self-hypnosis guided imagery CDs in the privacy of your own home, available at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.pmi4.com\/cart\">www.pmi4.com\/cart<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you aren\u2019t able to maintain trust and belief in yourself on the golf course, email Joan at\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:pmi4@bellsouth.net\">pmi4@bellsouth.net<\/a>\u00a0or call 828.696.2547 for a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation about developing a new strategy.
