Holy Sheep 💩 That was tense!

Perfect conditions at for 9 holes.

Age raced out to a 3-0 lead through the first 3 holes only to be pegged back over the next 4, Beauty taking a 4-3 lead through 7. Age then rallied levelling 4-4 with 1 to play. Both tee shots were average on the last. Age missed a regulation 3 foot putt giving Beauty the hole and a 5-4 win!!

Age v Beauty, the tables have turned 😳

Beauty now 5-4 up in the Summer Series 😎

The scoreboard only shows the final result, but the real work happens in the dark. 🌑

True success is built on the non-negotiables you stick to when no one is watching. It’s the discipline to show up that ultimately separates the dreamers from the achievers. 📈

Public praise is just a byproduct of private persistence. Keep your head down and stay focused on your growth mindset. The world will see the results soon enough.

I see it all the time: a fixation on outcome goals. Standing on the podium or smashing a PB.
Motivating? Yes. Effective? Not always.

Here’s the truth:
Success is built over a long period of time, with clear, controllable process goals at the heart of achievement.

That’s why top-performing athletes are masters of process goals.

❌ The Limitation of Outcome Goals
Outcome goals depend on factors outside your control:
• Weather
• Competitors
• Course conditions

When your focus is only on the outcome, you create pressure, anxiety, and frustration. Miss a session? Suddenly, it feels like failure.

✅ The Power of Process Goals
Process goals focus on what you can control:
✔ Training ex*****on
✔ Nutrition planning
✔ Session intensity and duration
✔ Post-session performance reflection

The result? Momentum, confidence, consistency, and mental resilience. All of which directly translate into race-day performance.

🧩 Framework for Success
Outcome Goal: Age Group Podium
Process Goal: Execute training as prescribed
Daily Habit: Post-session check: Did I follow the plan and hit my targets?

Small wins daily → Big results on race day.

🏁 Coaching Insight
Dream big, but measure success by what you control, not what you hope for.

Show up. Execute. Repeat.

The outcome will take care of itself 😎
