Think Above Par | Your Mental Caddy for Golf Mindset & Performance

The 6 Biggest Mental Shifts That Transformed My Golf and Life


Listen Later

In this episode of 'Above Par,' Kathy shares six mental shifts that improved her golf game and overall life: 

  1. recognizing thoughts are optional, 
  2. understanding that thoughts create emotions, 
  3. realizing feeling emotions isn't a sign of weakness, 
  4. comprehending discomfort leads to growth, 
  5. believing in something before seeing it, and 
  6. treating confidence as a skill that can be developed. 

These realizations proved pivotal, teaching her to take control of her mental state both on and off the golf course. 

She encourages listeners to pick at least one of these shifts to experiment with in order to experience positive changes in their lives and their game.
