INSIGHT

Gratitude Rewires What You Notice

Gratitude is a practice of choosing to look for good moments and opportunities.
Reprogramming your attention (reticular activating system) helps you notice positives more often.

ADVICE

Practice With One Clear Goal

Define a clear goal for every practice session and rehearse the feel before hitting.
Notarize results by writing them down and analyze instead of mindless autopilot hitting.

ADVICE

Simple Wall Drills For Swing Awareness

Use a wall to rehearse swing plane, head centrality, and spatial boundaries without hitting balls.
Hold the club by the head and swing close to the wall to feel correct path and length.
