I completely agree. The Conscious Mind programs precision Golf Stroke Mechanics into the Subconscious Mind. Not a huge concept: Your Conscious Mind taught your Subconscious Mind to tie your shoelaces. Since then, your Subconscious has delivered -- on command and in the blink of an eye -- all its Conscious programming. The end result is that your shoelaces get tied every morning with zero conscious thought. That's a good thing. But, there is a third element to be considered. Namely . . . The Self Image. Born of countless experiences, you now 'act like you'. Your 'comfort zone' behavior always lags the ongoing improvement. Thus, for those who would accelerate the process, conscious training in this mental 'catch-up' effort is a must. Here's the deal: When your skills are there, and you are ready to win . . . Your Self Image must be ready to accept that reality. Otherwise . . . There must come another, more congruent day. __________________ Yoda Yoda View Public Profile Send a private message to Yoda Visit Yoda's homepage! Find all posts by Yoda
