Winning
Quotes from the Book
When you are destined for greatness, it shows in everything you do. It becomes you. Greatness becomes you.
Passion in life…is life. It’s contagious. Get naked and roll around in it. People who enjoy living have it all figured out. They are passionate, driven, alive, and they are real.
The code-of-ethics playlist: o Treat your colleagues, family, and friends with respect, dignity, fairness, and courtesy. o Pride yourself in the diversity of your experience and know that you have a lot to offer. o Commit to creating and supporting a world that is free of discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. o Have balance in your life and help others to do the same. o Invest in yourself, achieve ongoing enhancement of your skills, and continually upgrade your abilities. o Be approachable, listen carefully, and look people directly in the eyes when speaking. o Be involved, know what is expected from you, and let others know what is expected from them. o Recognize and acknowledge achievement. o Celebrate, relive, and communicate your successes on an ongoing basis.
Your appearance, attitude, and confidence define you as a person. A professional, well-dressed golfer, like a businessperson, gives the impression that he thinks that the golf course and/or workplace and the people there are important.
Surround yourself with people who love life and learn.
In the event of a communication breakdown, decide whether you will dwell in the negative or rise above the angst and turmoil in a firm, positive manner and encourage all parties to listen and be heard.
Wasted strokes, like missed deadlines, are preventable and costly.
The excitement of opportunity and challenge inspires us to push for greatness.
You have had many successes, and you have earned the right to be respected.
Which came first: the change-ready company or the change-ready employee?
There is no one right way. Just figure out what works for you!
To desire to change one’s past means there is a desire to change oneself. To desire to change oneself, one must learn to change.
People learn when they are ready to learn. Are you ready?
Not much in the world ends up being the same as it started out, unless of course it had a very short life cycle.
Self-affirm—build yourself up with honest and genuine praise.
A good golfer’s métier is his or her golfing skill. A great golfer’s métier is his or her golfing skill, coupled with the mastery of good sportsmanship, rendering him or her an ambassador for the sport.
Contained exhilaration is not nearly as exciting as its release… accept challenge! What excitement do you have to share with the world?
If you’re not afraid of working hard, self-reliance comes easy!
There is confidence convergence when mental prowess and business aptitude mesh.
We, as human beings, enjoy freedom of choice. Your attitude is your choice!
Shoot for the biggest and boldest impact possible. If you need a full corporate makeover—do it. Moderation is just not going to cut it.
Consider the value of doing what you love and being paid for it! This is truly a golfer’s dream.
Successful people play the part of being successful consistently in all that they do.
If you dread ending up in the bunker, practice these tricky out-of-the-sand shots until you master them. Think of it as insurance—we all have learned that, once you know you can make that shot easily, you will seldom need to!
