This is strategy week. Strategies are the plans we set to overcome obstacles. Some obstacles are self-produced. We create them ourselves because of the way we think, decisions we make and things we do. Other obstacles come from the outside forces. We have to deal with both.
In the late 1950s, golf was not open for everyone. For some people, simply playing golf was a challenge, learning to play well was even more difficult.
The movie, The Long Game, gives us a view into the obstacles the students of San Felipe High School had to face. The actual school is gone now. It closed in 1971. But, the types of obstacles they had to face still exist. When you watch the movie, pay attention to the strategies and tactics they had to use. The San Felipe Mustangs not only learned to play golf, they learned to play so well that the won the 1957, Texas state championship.
What is your long game? What is your plan?
Change. Think. Golf.
