I remember when i was working at Subic Bay Golf and Country Club, i had to learn golf as part of my job.   I took the services of a Pro to teach me, so i had many hours spend in the golf driving range in Julia Vargas in Pasig City. It was helpful having golf training aids in making my swing better. Most of us think that practicing makes perfect, but in golf i realized that such statement is untrue. Practicing the “right” way, makes perfect. What are you practicing?

Its important to have the following for success:

1. A goal. What do you really want?

2. Make a plan. Who do you know is very good in what you want to accomplish, it to play golf well, then get a golf Pro as a Mentor…don’t just follow the instruction of another golfer (who may be good at his game, but not trained to teach).

3. Take Action.  Practice what you learned to be the proper way to do your stance, your swing and the likes.

4. Analyze. Have you pro check how you swing, how you play, how you make choices on what clubs to use.

5. Adjust. Make the adjustments needed.

In life a lot of people know what needs to be done, meaning they can perfectly analyze a situation, or their problems. The difficult part is making the adjustments needed because sometimes, we have developed our habits already and find it hard to let of the habit and make some change.

Doing the same thing and expecting different results as they say is insanity. If you know that your swing keeps giving you a slice..then work out the adjustment the pro is telling you to make.

Are you practicing adjusting to make your game or life better?
