How often have you found that when you go to play golf, you have tremendous challenges because your mind is so busy? It seems like there's a constant stream of thoughts getting in the way of playing your best golf or releasing your best golf. Every time you hear people talk about playing the best, it seems to come from a quiet place. It seems to come from a calm mind as opposed to a busy mind. One of the things to understand is that this is a natural part of modern day life. We're constantly being asked to think. We're constantly being asked to think about the future, the things that we need to do, the things that we should do, the things that we have to get done. We're constantly projecting forward about all of those needs and necessities. We're also pretty good at going into the past of things that shouldn't have happened or things that we believe wouldn't have happened if we'd done things differently. The mind is this time travelling machine that we're constantly getting into and projecting forward and going back in time over and over and over again. The busyness of the mind often creates the turbulence that gets in the way of good golf. And yet what does golf require? It requires a presence. It requires a mind still to allow you to create this shot in this particular moment in time.
Speaker 1:One of the things that I want you to begin to do is to understand that it's important that you let your mind know that it's time to play golf. It seems a strange thing to say, but I think what tends to happen for many of us is that we get to the golf course and we're just so busy inside of our head that we rush to the tee. We sometimes hit some shots to warm our bodies up and do some stretches, but we don't get our mind centred in a quiet place that will allow you to just let out the capability that you have for the game. One of the things that we've touched on in the past which I can't say too many times, I can't overstate is that the mind is capable of doing time travel. It's doing it all the time backwards and forwards, backwards and forwards, past and future. Yet the body can't do that.
Speaker 1:Any time that you ground your attention in your physical body, you bring yourself back to the present moment.
Speaker 1:So just the simplest thing that you can do when you get to the golf course.
Speaker 1:It might seem a trite thing to do, but my experience with many plays that I've worked with is that it does make a difference, is that you very simply get to the point where you're about to get out of the car and you just pause.
Speaker 1:You just pause just for a moment before you rush to the first tee or before you rush out to get your card or sign in or do whatever it just simply take a moment to pause.
Speaker 1:And as you take a moment to pause, just bring your attention to your breath, bring your attention to the rise and fall of your breath and begin to realise that the only moment that you need to focus on now is this present moment, the quality of your experience. In this present moment, and by bringing your attention to the breath, you'll start to notice things will slow down somewhat. You'll start to notice that things become quieter and as things become quieter, you start to settle down and as you settle down, you're able to access that part of you that is able to coordinate physical movement, that is able to swing the club freely. And just by doing this, just this simple exercise, the simplest thing that you could ever do is just to pause before you jump out of the car, just pause before you rush into action, just steady yourself in this moment, the only moment that we ever have, which is the present.
