Mindset

"I don't do things half-heartedly." -Michael Jordan

Find any athlete at the top of their game and you are almost surely going to find someone with an intense work ethic.

MJ is legendary for his work ethic - teammates often recount how Jordan competed just as hard in practice as he did in actual games. (For the record, Jordan now puts this same energy into his own golf game.)

Are you putting everything you can into accomplishing your goals in life and on the course?

Do this exercise 8 times for a total of 40 putts. How many can you make? Record your score in the comments so we can compare future results.

This exercise is great because each ball will have a different break and require different weight from a speed perspective.
