What Are You Looking At? 

"Schuman had caught himself lying awake in bed the previous night dreaming about making the cut and playing on the weekend. He could sense that those dreams were fading quickly. 'It's funny how a couple of bad swings can get you going in the wrong direction, and then you have a lot of trouble getting it back,' he said. 'There's just no margin for error at this level. Those guys at the top of the leader board look at the golf course and they see flags to fire at. I look at it and all I see is rough I want to stay out of."

In sports, it's very important that you know what you are looking at. 
Are you looking for the "flags" or the "rough"?


Look at what you want.
Look at what you control.
Look at where you want to go with your game. 
Look at your strengths.
Look at the lesson in each mistake.
Look at what inspires you.
Look at what you love about playing.
Look at what you are grateful for.
Look at how you can serve the team.
Look at the positive in any situation.
Look at the present moment.
Look at what you want to learn to become a better player.
Look at the opportunities in any situation.
