Message: [QUOTE="Tonyc, post: 3793444, member: 73"] I find that repetition is the mother of skill (Tony Robbins) . As was said, practice til you cant get it wrong. Another phrase I live by is there are two types of shooters in this world. Those who think they can and those who think they cant...and their both right. Practicing the right way to shoot is very important. Practicing til your confident and til you can trust your shot, under pressure, in a big game is the goal You need to have the proper fundementals that apply to your shot. Your attitude must be give me the ball and I will make the shot under the most critical moments in a game. That means you need to be tweaked and work on it as long as it takes to make it reflexive without thinking about it. When you start thinkin is when you start stinkin. Like any sport you have to make a total commitment. That means give up what youve been doin and do what you should be doin. You must be committed to it . You must be coachable and be wilingl to change. For many people trying to make a change find its not happening fast enough so they go back to their comfort zone. Thats a killer. You must stick with it. I am a avid golfer. I have worked for many golf professionals some of which played on the big tour. Ive learned alot from them. I remember working for a former tour player who got off the tour after 10 years. He asked me what I wanted to be in golf. I was just out of the Army. I said I want to play the tour. He laughed and said ..do you know what it takes? He continued you have to hit 300-500 balls a day, play 18 holes and if you dont break par play another 18 holes and putt til dark every day rain or sunshine and after 4 years you might make it. I found that true as many of the tour players would stop by and take lessons from him during the Westchester Classic. Guys like Johnny Miller JC Snead Chi Chi Dave Stockton a rookie by the name of Fuzzy Zoller Lou Graham right after he won the US Open and a few more. They hit balls all day and practiced all day. Thats something I live by today. So for someone like Paige and Azzi and we hear about them and I watched Diana at practice it just never changes. They love to practice for long periods of time. Thats what it takes if you wanna be somebody. If you want to be special one of the greats you must make a total commitment, pay a huge price in advance with no guarantees. If you wanna be average and ordinary keep doin what your doin. All it takes is a dream to do something special in your life. [/QUOTE]
