Click here to read a past edition of The More Pars Than Bogeys Newlsetter that details how to dismantle destructive mindset programs. Key Takeaways: Awareness Is Key: Recognizing destructive patterns, like the compulsion to rush, is the first step toward change.Understand the Root Cause: Destructive mindset programs are learned behaviors designed to keep you safe, often formed in childhood.Reframe Your Self-Talk: Words shape thoughts, and thoughts create beliefs. Shift from negative narratives to empowering ones.Cultivate Presence: A consistent grounding practice, like meditation or breathwork, helps you stay focused and reduce anxiety.Emotions Are Neutral: Learn to observe emotions like fear and judgment without attaching to them or letting them control your actions.Slow Down to Improve: Slowing down your routine helps you commit to your shots and build confidence in your swing.Accountability Matters: Fully committing to each shot eliminates excuses and fosters a growth-oriented mindset. Key Quotes: "Destructive mindset programs are learned, which means they can be unlearned.""Your subconscious deploys these programs to keep you safe, but they often hold you back from growth and success.""Rushing provides a false sense of urgency, protecting you from judgment but ultimately sabotaging your performance.""Slow is smooth, and smooth is strong.""When you rush, you avoid fully committing to a shot, but you also avoid taking full responsibility for the outcome.""A grounding practice off the course strengthens your ability to manage emotions during a round.""Your beliefs are the lenses through which you view the world—and they shape your results, reality, and identity."

Key Takeaways: The mental game’s primary goal is to reduce stress, as stress disrupts motor patterns and prevents you from swinging your best on the course.A growth mindset is critical for improving in golf; believing that improvement is possible fuels the effort needed to achieve your goals.Effective practice involves intention and structure—prioritizing deliberate, focused sessions over marathon practice that leads to burnout.Consistency in effort, even with small, incremental steps, is the foundation for long-term progress in golf and life.Managing your expectations with data-driven insights (e.g., realistic fairway hit percentages) helps avoid frustration and enhances performance.Pre- and post-shot routines, along with slowing down after mistakes, are essential tools for bouncing back from blow-up holes and staying composed.The golfer you are on the course is deeply connected to the human being you are off it—prioritizing physical, mental, and emotional well-being will elevate your performance. Key Quotes: "The whole goal of the mental game is stress is coming—it’s going to happen. No matter how good you get, you're going to hit bad shots. The key is figuring out how to calm down and get back to your process as fast as you can.""You have to have a growth mindset—if you don’t think you can improve, you won’t. But if you believe someone else did it, then you can too.""Do different to get different. If you keep practicing the same way, going through the same motions, and expecting better results, you’ll stay stuck. Challenge yourself to do what others aren’t willing to do.""Your swing is already there. It’s not going to change the day before a tournament. Sometimes the best preparation is resting, eating well, and showing up with a clear and focused mind.""Consistency beats everything. Even if it’s a mediocre practice or an okay workout, you’re still showing up. Over time, that builds belief and creates real progress.""Having the right expectations is everything. If you think you’ll hit every fairway or make every putt, you’re setting yourself up for frustration. Focus on playing your best with what you have that day.""You can’t separate the golfer from the human being. How you care for yourself emotionally, physically, and mentally off the course directly impacts how you perform on the course." Subscribe to the More Pars Than Bogeys Newsletter.

Key Points: The Importance of Identity Change: Achieving your goals requires transforming your identity.

Developing emotional resilience, mental toughness, and the ability to access your potential on demand is crucial.Goal Clarity Simplifies Decisions: Clear, well-defined goals act as a filter for decision-making, helping you focus on what truly matters while eliminating distractions.Progress Takes Time and Trust: Results often lag behind effort. Trust in your process and stay consistent, even when visible progress isn’t immediate.Golf as a Reflection of Life: The game of golf mirrors life, offering opportunities to grow, confront fears, and become the best version of yourself both on and off the course. Key Quotes: "A goal isn't just about achieving an external result; it's about becoming a better version of yourself in the process.""If what you were doing today was enough to achieve your goal, you'd already have achieved it.""Your why is the emotional fuel that will sustain you during the inevitable grind of the process.""By aligning your habits and actions with the identity of the golfer you aspire to become, you'll improve your game a hell of a lot faster and enjoy the process of becoming the best version of yourself.""The best golfers are those who can access their potential on demand, especially under pressure.""Golf and successful golf are about so much more than the swing; it's about managing emotions, staying resilient, and playing with intention.""Your goal should make you pause, feel nervous, or even afraid—it means you're pushing yourself out of your comfort zone, which is the sweet spot for growth."
