Golf & Success Quotes



Scream out..."I AM AMAZING!"



When you are destined for greatness,

it shows in everything you do.

It becomes you.

Greatness becomes you.



A good golfer's métier is his or her golfing skill.

A great golfer's métier is his or her golfing skill,

coupled with the mastery of good

sportsmanship, rendering him or her an

ambassador for the sport.



Consider the value of doing what you

love and being paid for it!

This is truly a golfer's dream.



To desire to change one's past means

there is a desire to change oneself.

one must learn to change.



Wasted strokes, like missed deadlines,

are preventable and costly.



Avid golfers creatively practice their sport!

They check their grip as they grab the handle

of a broom, and they test how well they

calculate distance as they walk their dog!

You might say that avid golfers always keep

their game in play--even when off the course.

From the Inside Flap

When business professional Lorii Myers decided to write a motivational self-improvement book that used "golf as a metaphor for life," it was because she saw the game of golf as a perfect reflection of what a person needs to do to be successful in their career.

Not only do you have to read the course, you have to know how to deal with the hazards. You even have to deal with your own abilities, knowing that a slice could cost you a stroke or two. "When you make a bad play," Myers says, "in golf or in business, it's not the end of the world. It is just time to regroup, work a little harder, and get back on track."

It's clear that Myers's purpose is to help others make the most of themselves no matter if they are new on the job or high up on the corporate ladder. Utilizing the framework of a round of golf, she takes readers through the career game from the first hole to the eighteenth, focusing our attention on what makes a businessperson successful every step along the way.

The "Front Nine" is about self-perception and self-direction. It discusses the finer points of self-improvement, the development of confidence, the value of ethics, and how to become a positive influence at work.

The "Back Nine" delves into effective success strategies for employees and employers alike and is a call to action to engage in proper leadership, empowerment, teamwork building, and learning how to become proactive effecting positive change.
