But the step between those two is commitment to the target.

In part 1 of this conversation with Karl Morris, we discussed the importance of building skill, rather than obsessing over golf swing. And how you can access that skill through having a more optimistic view of the circumstances you’re in. But that was mostly concept. In part 2, I want to make it more concrete. I want something for the player that is in the middle of a bad round and needs something to go to. A tactic to put into place to help them through it. A way to adapt to changes in the environment or in ourselves. Karl Morris guides us through some great ways to do just that. ----- Karl Morris's podcast: Mind Caddie Apple: Mind Caddie Spotify: Mind Caddie ----- Get 10% off a Divot Board!

I actually learned a thing or two in researching this, so I'm confident you'll learn something. ----- Get 10% off a Divot Board!

In this episode of The Mental Golf Show, we have Paul Salter, a mindset coach and hypnotherapist for golfers. We discuss how hypnotherapy has a misconstrued reputation, why Paul believes it can speed up the mental improvement and performance of golfers. We also discuss the amateur golfer’s common diet mistakes, how to get premium fuel for your body, how ‘scarcity mentality’ applies to golf and can affect your game, how long golf improvement should take, how nonjudgmental curiosity can help us change the internal rules we’ve created, what’s at the heart of fear of failure, how fear of getting kicked out of the group can fuel playing scared, and the power of clear visualization, and specifically clear visualization of mistakes. ----- Get 10% off a Divot Board!
