"Two things define you. Your patience when you have nothing, and your attitude when you have everything."

It has been a rough week to say the least, more mentally than my skill in the game.  I put in everything I had but for some reason its as if I am being tested in terms of my mind strength in order to persist through my rough year.  I have changed my practice routine, longer hours at the golf course and having little to no social life.  I was striking the ball better than I have ever had in a long time but could not validate it with my disappointing putting game.  I have learned to keep my head up no matter the result in order to move onto the fact that it is just a game.  I know it will come together but it is a matter of time and although I am moving at a slower pace than others I can't put so much pressure on myself.  In terms of moving on, it was another great experience where I was able to really see what I need to continue working on and what I need to maintain in my golf game.  Although this was not my best week, I still believe that I will have my time.  It may not be today or tomorrow or even next month, but I am not willing to give up!

My friends on tour managed to put a smile on my face after my round which I learned is important in keeping a positive mindset for the future.
