Don’t Practice Until You Get It Right! Practice Until You Can’t Get It Wrong! | Jason D’Amore
Description
A big takeaway from our conversation with Jason D’Amore is authenticity. If a player doesn't love their sport, their journey will not work out well. So, if you’re going to do something, make sure you love it or you’re wasting your time.
Our parents often ask us “Do you really love golf?” Just like D’Amore, they believe if we don’t love it, we should look for something that brings us joy. However, we truly do.
We also think picturing yourself playing in the future is important; remember, visualization is major—in your pre-shot routine and in staying true to yourself.
