This is something I struggle with. I truly love playing golf, but I am also a very competitive person, so I have been trying to accept the reality that I don't have the time to get my game where I feel like it could be.

I saw this question last night and it started a serious ponder. Before I left golf the first time, I could not accept good (at my level) and wanted to be great (at my level). The trouble was that I never put in the real work required, took myself too seriously and was, more often than not, frustrated. When I fast forward to present THP and returning to golf, I have found that golf has been so much more rewarding. When I put in the requisite practice for the MC, there was a marked improvement in my game and I was producing the best consistent golf of my life. Lately though, there has been a lot going on and the practice time is just not there. The game suffers and the frustration level goes up.
Recently I find myself taking me and my game/ability too seriously. Far too seriously...... Yesterday I had a really bad day off the tee box and really had a talking to myself because I could see myself slipping into a bad mood. I was with friends, the weather was decent, we were playing golf for crying out loud and there were still lots of good shots happening. I'll take "good" golf at my level and be happy with it, because unless I become independently wealthy any time soon, I won't be great. The great friends, great times, great places golf takes me and the great shots I am able to pull off from time to time will just have to do :act-up:. And I'm cool with that. Thanks for the kick in the pants Fuppy! May not have been your intention, but it's just what the doctor ordered.

I learned to accept the fact that I not that good and was never going to be that good a long time ago. Scratch players are 1 in 1000. Golf is hard.
This is true too. Golf is hard
