About Athletic Potential, Disappointment, and Success.

I firmly believe that any Man's finest hour, the greatest of all that he holds dear, is the moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle-victorious. VINCE LOMBARDI

I think this is a fantastic quote. Whether it applies to you or your friend, to the Men's Club Champion, or the Ladies Club Champion, to your children or a Tour Player, or unfortunately to my Green Bay Packers today in their battle with the Cardinals in the NFC Playoff Game.

We know how it feels to be so close to victory and to have had it slip out of our hands, we know how it feels to fail, and this quote talks about how fantastic the feeling is when we feel we have fully given ourselves and that level of effort achieved victory. Most important we must know the satisfaction in giving it our all even in failure.

I guess, my bottom line is this, Win Lose or Draw, we need to have a plan to achieve our goals, and as I quite enjoy the saying "Plan Your Work, and Work Your Plan". To follow this entry I'll begin mapping out a plan to make this your best year of golf and mine.
