If you want to get the most out of your workouts, your job, your business…your life than take a moment to think about what you should focus on. What have we taught ourselves to do? Are we going in the right direction.
Is what you are doing getting you closer to your goals – or further away?
Take 30 seconds and read this brilliant email I received from an honest, intelligent and caring family man I am honored to associate with. Steve Sisler has a knack for helping people stop life as a human doing and start a new as a human being.
THE SHORT GAME
Friends,
When it comes to the game of golf, wisdom dictates that 70% of all golf shots take place within 100 yards of the pin. This is what is known as the “short game.” The short-game involves little things like pitching, chipping and putting to name just a few. This particular aspect of the game represents 70% of your score.
Now go figure; wouldn’t you think that if you were going to improve your golf score, you would spend 3-4 hrs practicing your short game for every hour you spent on the driving range acting like Godzilla? But, that would be smart, most people are somewhere between stupid and brain-dead.
If you’re playing 18 holes, you’re statistically using short irons and putters 50 times, while using a driver about 14-15 times according to statistics. If people can’t fix their idiosyncrasies in golf, can you imagine the driving force behind fixing their faults at work? Yeah, you guessed it… about zilch. If your emotional short game is what I statistically believe it is, then maybe you should set aside some time and practice being human again.
