I decided to start a blog that keeps track of what I have learned during practice as well as other life lessons off of the course.
I am 22 years old and have been playing golf for a very long time. I would say though, that I never really started taking it seriously until about 3 years ago. Since then I have been working hard every day to refine and tune my swing. Although I have not been playing golf with the "proper" technique, I thankfully have been blessed with great spatial and athletic ability. And also swinging at a ball for 12 years helps aid in that process.
My goal is to to be playing professionally on the LPGA tour some day. Even though I have been playing golf for such a long time that doesn't mean that I have been playing golf properly for a long time, otherwise, I'd already be on tour. I do not believe that it ever to late to chase after what you want.
I literally had to start from scratch with my swing. I had to start from the ground up and it has been a very rocky road, but the outcome has and will be well worth the work.
My goal that I have is very feasible and I could not be trying to pursue this dream without my support system. I believe that no matter what anyone wants to do, that if they do not have a support system, then they will not succeed. Even the wealthiest and most successful of people would not be where they are without a support system. I have been very blessed and fortunate to be able to be surrounded by people that continually lift me up and continually support me. I am very blessed to have a family that has been able to provide a means for me to continue to pursue what I want to do. For that, I am forever grateful.
When I met my swing coach, whom I also call my friend, I never realized how much was in store for me. For 3 years I have been working with him, and each time I think I have reached my maximum level of potential, a few weeks will go by and I will look back and see all the growth that has happened within my swing. For example, when I look back now, I used to think I was really good, but now I think I am even better.
That is kind of like what life is like as well. Sometimes we don't realize how much change has taken place until we take a step back and reflect.
Every day is another day to be better.
