Daily Post: Mental Myths Continued - No2
Myth #2
We can harness our minds;
We are sold the idea that Tiger goes into a bubble where only positive thoughts go through his head. And then, when we can't find a similarly serene mental state, we give up on the notion of mental control.
The fact is, you can't control your thoughts... and neither can Tiger. The notion that you might make a mess of things, of topping it off the tee or shanking it onto the road, can affect any golfer at any time. But while you can't stop these nasty random thoughts popping up, you can control how you respond to them.
There is a big difference between believing your thoughts and simply noticing them. Just because your mind conjures up the image of an embarrassing failure, you don't have to go with that thought.
Instead you can do what Tiger or any tour pro does: notice the thought, let it pass, and refocus on what you have to do to execute the shot in front of you.
Check back in tomorrow for Myth No3!
