Even Tiger Woods needs to Practice!

Today was pretty cool. I thought about going to golf, but I just ended up messing around on the net. I wanted to find you guys more information on golf packates in Arizona, but I got side tracked.

I promise to work hard to find you more information as soon as I get back and can make something happpen. But for now, check this out...

I'm not a huge golf fan, but like most people, I know Tiger Woods as the best golfer of our generation. He is a true master. A natural.

Even though he is considered one of the best golfers of all time, Tiger Woods needs to practice to stay on top of his game. His philosophy and approach to practice and where he devotes his focus is very surprising.

To simplify the game of golf, there are two major skills needed, putting and swinging. Your swing drives the ball down the fairway a long distance onto the green where you then putt the ball a short distance into the hole. The fewer times you hit the ball to reach the hole the better.

Tiger Woods has a great putt. In fact, his putt gets all the glory, we've all seen the commercial where he sinks a putt, pumps his fist in victory and drives away in a new Cadillac. But it is his phenomenal swing that separates him from the rest of the field. It is truly one of the sweetest and smoothest in the history of the sport.

So what do you think? When Tiger Woods heads out of the club house for his morning practice, where does he spend his time and energy?

Does he head to the practice green to work on his biggest weakness, his putting or does he head for the driving range to work on the biggest strength, his swing?

--Tiger Woods spends 20% of his practice time on his weakness and 80% on his strength. Surprised? I was.

He knows (and I learned) that working on the things you are good at gives you more energy, more motivation and ultimately more success.

His work smart ethic is to focus on his natural strengths. By doing so he makes them sharper and they become an even stronger asset to his game.

It is practice and it is effort, but because his swing is natural to him, he enjoys working at it and getting it just right. For him seeing the ball fly down the fairway with just the right angle and correct distance is gratifying.

On the other hand, he works on his weaknesses just enough to keep them from hindering him, holding him back or getting in his way to success.

The Tiger Woods story is a reminder that we all have natural strengths and weaknesses. It's where we spend our energy and time that makes all the difference.

My challenge to you is to think about your business. How are you investing your time and energy within your business? On your strengths, the things you enjoy doing or on your weaknesses, the things you really struggle with?

In future issues, we will explore how you can focus on the things you enjoy doing and less on the things you don't.

The Best OC Golf

Some of us play because we LOVE to play and would find the time to play no matter what.

Today was a good example of “no matter what”, when I left home it was sprinkling, not much, just a little, so we go to the course just to see if it might stop shortly. Upon arriving at the course we go in the Club House and wait to see if any other idiots show up. Now I should tell you that this is the middle of the week and everyone that I play with is retired, so we have time to wait and see if the rain stops, or at least lets up a little.


Since its beginnings centuries ago in the Scottish Highlands (or possibly Scandinavia), golf had been an activity that promotes both physical and psychological well-being. oc golf is a popular activity that allows one to get out in the open air, get a bit of cardiovascular exercise and even socialize.

With a mild climate similar to that of the Mediterranean, Orange County is possibly the orange capital of the world. Home for centuries to tribes of Penutian-speaking Indians, the area offers spectacular views of both the ocean and the Mountains as well as lush gardens and interesting archtitecture ranging from Victorian and Spanish Colonial to modern. In such a setting, it's small wonder people enjoy OC golf.
