| FOCUS ON SUCCESS (Michael Anthony) | |||
|
To
those
of
you
who
have
read
The
Mental
Keys
and
my
many
mental
tips,
you
are
well
aware
that
associating
negative
emotions
to
facts
adversely
affects
your
chemistry
and
performance.
So
what
do
you
focus
on
when
faced
with
facts
that
challenge
your
ability
to
pull
off
difficult
shots? Let’s
assume
you
make
a
bad
tee
shot
and
your
ball
landing
in
the
rough
is
completely
covered
by
the
grass.
Or,
your
ball
buries
itself
in
a
sand
bunker
with
the
top
barely
showing,
or
any
other
worse
case
scenario
that
Old
Man
golf
will
occasionally
confront
you
with.
When
this
happens
to
you,
what
runs
through
your
mind?
Do
you
get
upset
or
complain
that
you
got
a
bad
break
and
face
a
very
difficult
shot?
If
you
do,
train
your
mind
to
focus
on
success.
Start
playing
each
shot
with
your
focus
on
your
probability
of
success,
instead
of
failure.
By
this
I
mean,
once
you
estimate
your
chances
of
making
a
shot,
focus
totally
on
making
the
shot.
Don't
concern
yourself
with
the
probability
of
not
making
the
shot.
Even
if
the
odds
are
only
1%
that
you
can
make
a
very
difficult
shot,
be
happy
and
excited
that
you
have
a
1%
chance
of
making
that
shot.
Expect
to
be
able
to
make
the
shot,
if
everything
goes
right. This
will
put
you
in
a
very
good
frame
of
mind
and
chemical
state.
You
will
find
that
you
will
make
more
shots
if
you
believe
you
can.
If
you
end
up
missing
the
shot,
so
what
because
the
odds
were
against
you
anyway. Michael
Anthony,
mental
trainer
and
author
of
“The
Mental
Keys
to
Improve
Your
Golf”
contributed
the
above
tip.
