That said, I live life one day at a time. While that’s my motto, it does not mean that I don’t plan for the future. What it means is that I don’t get too far ahead of myself to the point where I worry about things that happened in the past, or what might happen in the future. I have little control over a lot of what happens as I walk through this journey we call life, but there are things which I can control and things I can plan for − and that is what I focus on. The same goes for a round of golf. I can begin my round with a goal and with a plan of how I want to play. For example, I step to the first tee with a mind set on playing bogey golf or not losing any balls. But I can’t control the slow players ahead of me who affect my rhythm and affect my concentration, or the tree branch that kicks my ball out of bounds, rather than back onto the fairway, just like in life when we can’t control what others do or say. We need to remain focused on what wecan control. Be in the moment and whatever happens, happens. Well, enough of my ruminations on golf and life. Here’s to a winter of content wherever you are. Take it one shot at a time. Plan when you can, but enjoy the journey of the unexpected and realize that there is often perfection in imperfection and beauty in the ugliness that life throws our way.
