PLAYING GOLF
Lots has been written
about how to practice golf but not as much has been written about how to play. To
me, playing golf simply means hitting the shots you know you can hit, instead
of shots you think you need to hit. Sounds a bit like a bird in the hand is
worth two in the bush. In other words, face as little doubt as possible. It
seems like a boring, timid way to play, but think of it as a long-term
investment. What you forego in the excitement of chasing a tucked flag, you gain
in predictability which will lead to better scores. Imagine Matt Kuchar LLC.
and Patrick Reed Corp. as investment opportunities. Where do you invest your retirement
fund? Why? If you’d like to play more consistently, aim to improve your scores
as an entrepreneur aims to build a business betting on long term consistency
over short term fluctuations. Act like you’ve got a little skin in the game,
having the confidence to buy an 18-hole bond instead of a 1 shot penny stock. If
you know you can stuff it to that back left pin, by all means stuff it, but don’t hit the shot if you have one shred of doubt.
P.S. Patrick Reed is the man...
