• How achieving my goal has affected my confidence
• The power of short-term goals - and why they’re essential if you’re committed to playing to your potential
• Why and how I look backward to empower me to move forward
• My next goal and what I’m excited about for this week’s rounds

Key Quotes:

• "Achieving this short-term goal has boosted my confidence."
• "Progress is not linear; there will be frustrating moments."
• “Instead of looking at how far you still have to go to break 90, break 80, shoot par, look at how far you've come.”
• “And let me be frank, maybe you reflect back on this year and you're like, fuck, I didn't come very far. How can you view this through a lens of non-judgmental curiosity and get really curious as to why? Was the effort there? Did you take aligned, effective action steps? Did you ignore some of the harder, uncomfortable aspects of the game that you need to work on?”
