Good sports coaches work on The Wheel of Success. There are four arcs to The Wheel of Success:

1. Hard Work makes people more Confident.
2. Confidence enables them to Win.
3. Winning is Enjoyable.
4. Enjoyment makes Hard Work easier.

And so the wheel goes round and round and success comes more and more often.

The point is that Winning starts with Hard Work.

What I know from playing a lot of golf over many years is that most golfers do not work very hard at their game. They go out to play with hope in their hearts. But they have not spent much time on the practice ground or at the driving range. They do not practice chipping and putting save for a few putts before each round.

Be honest with me now
