Stoppingthe ANTS
Now that you better understand these pesky insects, let’s figure out
how to STOP them with a simple,
3 Step Approach.
Step 1 - Awareness -
To STOP any type of negative energy, you
must be aware when it happens. I have my students identify
their TOP 10 ANT Traps, both on and off the course. Putting
your ANT Traps on high alert makes it much easier to STOP
them.
Step 2 - STOP
- If you want to STOP this negative energy
wave, the best way is to physically STOP moving. By stopping,
you create a what is known as a
pattern interrupt
which sends
a new message to your brain.
Step 3 - Repeat Your Strategy Aloud
- In the January issue we
shared the importance of playing golf with a Mental Game Strategy.
To reverse your negative energy, simply say your strategy aloud. For
example, if your Strategy for the day is Smile, then repeat the word
3 times to yourself and put a big Smile on your face! Since you can
only have one thought at a time, it’s best to make it a positive one.
Use these three steps to
STOP the ANTS.
Overcoming your ANTS
will improve your confidence, lower your score and increase your
enjoyment of the game
