Make it a great Monday - One shot at a time

Sally,


Emily has a school golf tournament today in Temple, TX. I asked Uncle Ricky, who has been playing a lot of golf and is a good player, what advice he would give Emily for today. He said, "One shot at a time." That is a good mantra for a round of golf. 

It is also suitable for a Monday morning. Sometimes Monday can seem quite overwhelming. The week is starting, and we have a lot to accomplish. The best way to tackle a 'to-do' list, which may feel intimidating, is the same as the best way to play a round of golf -- one shot/thing at a time. 

Some people refer to this as the power of completion. When we complete things, we gain momentum and can move to the next with purpose, power, and fulfillment.

Make it a great Monday,

Dad
