Michael Anthony's Mental Golf Tip Newsletter Issue 237: Tuesday - April 29, 2008 Hi Determined Golfer, If you find this newsletter helpful, please tell your friends, associates and golf instructor. Thanks for helping out. "Keep Polishing Your Wheel" If you are new to my newsletter, welcome aboard. My mission is to help you lower your score by increasing your awareness of how your mind processes information and providing you with insights on how to improve your mental game. It is important for my new subscribers to get up to speed as quickly as possible. If you truly desire to lower your score, read my book and listen to my CD (part one) before and (part two) after you play as well as read my mental tip newsletters. Once you have done your homework, you will have laid the foundation to have one of the best mental games around. The next step is to continue to work on improving your mental game (polish your wheel) until these insights become an instinctive part of your mental makeup. My advice to my old subscribers is to keep polishing your wheel if you want your scores to continue to fall. Since my mental tips are designed to enhance and reinforce your understanding of "The Mental Keys," keep reading them as well as rereading my book from time to time. Some of my newsletters contain new tips and others repeat past tips to refresh your tape. If you keep polishing your wheel, your scores will continue to fall. I guarantee it! Once in awhile, I send out a Golf Announcement to inform you of other golf products that will help you to polish your wheel. Please take a serious look at them. Play well and keep polishing your wheel, Michael Anthony P.S. Once you read this section "Keep Polishing Your Wheel" several times, you can skip it in future newsletters and go directly to the "Golfers Locker Room Bulletin Board" for inspiring success stories or updates from me. After several repetitions, just seeing the words "Keep Polishing Your Wheel" will automatically remind you to keep working on improving your mental game. Click for access to my private mental tip archive GOLFERS LOCKER ROOM BULLETIN BOARD I am pleased to announce that you can listen to my mental golf tips weekly at GolfSmarterTips Podcast. Mike, "Just a note to thank you for your good work. It is definitely helping my game. I have shaved 2 strokes off my index going from a 6 to a 4.1 in the last several months. " I have been working more on my mental game in the evenings as work commitments do not allow me more time to spend practicing. I have seen results in tournament play as well, finishing 4th in our club individual net match play championship and 1st in the team net match play championship (the first time I had played in any club events). " I shared thoughts from the mental keys with my partner throughout the rounds. Afterwards he commented on how my postive comments helped him during the tournament, particularly dropping the negative thoughts of past misses and focusing on the next shot at hand. "In the final match, after missing a 3 foot putt to lose the 16th hole and even the match, I encouraged him to forget about it and be confident that he would make the next one. Thankfully, he did and then drained a difficult 20 footer on the 18th for birdie and our team victory! "Thanks again for the all the help. I will continue to work on my mental game and I will reorder your program when I wear out my current CD!" -Patrick ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It makes my day when you email me your success stories or ask for my help after you have read my book and listened to my CD. Don't be shy. It is always good to share positive feedback with your fellow golfers. Your generosity in sharing your experiences with others will help inspire them to keep polishing their wheel and help you sink an extra putt or two :-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MENTAL TIP by MICHAEL ANTHONY Training, Training, Training After a friendly game with a stranger, he bought me a drink and told me that I had intimidated him. Then he said firmly, "I don't get intimidated." I asked him why he got intimidated. He replied that my level of confidence never changed whether I made or missed a shot and I always played as if I would make the shot. Then I asked him what he did. He told me that he coached wrestling and was the lead man for a swat team. Being curious, I asked him what exactly does the lead man for a swat team do. He told me that he was the first person through the door and his job was to take out whoever was on the right side of the hallway or room before he was shot or killed. I told him that I was a mental trainer and asked him how he mentally prepares himself to do his job. He told me that it's the same for wrestling or being the first one through the door. Training, training, training was his answer. He trains himself to focus totally on executing the process without any fear or concern about the outcome. I asked him if he had any fear. He said his only fear was that the second man through the door behind him wouldn't take out whoever was on the left side of the hallway or room. Then he told me that he relies on his partner's training to keep him out of harms way. Can you rely on your mental training to keep you out of harms way on the golf course or do you still get emotionally involved and think about the outcome? Scientific research has revealed that human beings learn and remember what they have learned through repetition. Isn't it amazing then, that so many golfers expect to read a piece of information one time and retain it forever? You may think my newsletters are somewhat repetitious, but that's OK. They are designed to be repetitious to help you to keep polishing the wheel until you have the best mental game around. Once you have a great mental game, it's important to keep training, training, training to keep it that way. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Super Bonus... When you order my book and CD, you will receive my new book Michael Anthony's Mental Golf Tips, which contains 75 of my favorite mental tips. If you read a tip a day, you will be amazed at how much it will help you to keep polishing your wheel and shoot lower scores.
If you are not working on improving your mental game, you are playing golf with only half of the equipment. If you have not read The Mental Keys to Improve Your Golf, your mental game will benefit greatly by seeing the whole picture instead of just pieces contained in these mental tips. My book gives you the tools to improve your mental game. My CD Polish the Wheel makes it much easier to keep using them. "To develop a great mental game, it's critical to realize that your mental state affects the chemistry of your brain which in turn affects your ability to perform. Then, it's just a matter of reprogramming your mind to optimize your chemistry so you can play in the zone."
