Welcome to http://golf-life-style.blogspot.com/
Whenever I tell myself to take control of my golf swing; slow and easy back swing and extension of the arm forward (avoiding the chicken wing), the contact will be good and the shots will tend to be straight. But at times where I feel pressured, hurried or when I loose concentration, the swings will go wayward and the outcome will be disastrous; ending up spending more effort rescuing the situation.
Just like my pace of life at this point, it is just too fast for comfort; loosing focus, making mistakes along the way, forgetting things that need to be done and putting health at stake.
Need time off to set things straight, clear the mind and start afresh. Take a DEEP DEEP breath, take it at a comfortable pace and do it right first time round and conserve energy for the next challenge ahead.
Same principle in golf and in life.
Sport of Choice
Welcome to http://golf-life-style.blogspot.com/
There is a saying that goes:
The sport of choice for the urban poor is basketball. The sport of choice for maintenance level employees is bowling. The sport of choice for front-line workers is football. The sport of choice for supervisors is baseball. The sport of choice for middle management is tennis. The sport of choice for corporate officers is golf.
Conclusion: The higher you are in the corporate structure, the smaller your balls become.
So what is your sport of choice?

Natural Golfer vs Natural-Looking Golfer
"You must work very hard to become a natural golfer."
- Gary Player
...just like some ladies who must work very hard to make their makeup look natural! Lots of hard work before it looks effortless.

In Golf and Life - Does Practice Makes Perfect?
We have been hearing "practice makes perfect" ever since we started the concept of learning eg. golf, piano, dancing etc. But have you thought about it; if we practice the wrong things and wrong techniques constantly, what will happen? It will become a BAD HABIT! That's right, Practice actually makes PERMANENT! (permanently good or permanently bad). That's why it's wiser to practice smart; do it the right way first time round and try not to repeat the mistake; it is more difficult to undo a bad habit then to learn a new skill.This applies to both Golf and Life.

Life is Like a Game of Golf
Life is like a game of golf; the only thing that is certain is uncertainties...
In life, as in golf, there are always challenges ahead that we need to learn how to overcome. We educate ourselves and learn useful life skills to survive and compete in the society, just like in golf, where we spend a lot of time working on our game to perfect our techniques. However, just skills and techniques alone are not enough; we know that positive EQ and the ability to make smart decision and appropriate application of the skills are equally important in creating a successful life and golf game.

Golf is my Sport
Where most ball games have the balls coming towards you; Golf may be the only sport where the ball waits patiently for you to take the perfect position, swing down and strike the ball and finish off with the perfect pose!
GOLF! How Graceful!
