But most of us no longer have to do work we are not suited for. Some golfers are born with incredible talent, while others earn their game with extraordinary dedication and hard work. And some should consider doing something else. I am absolutely convinced that the road to greatness, wealth, and personal satisfaction lies in taking the path of least resistance. And, that brings us back to hard work.
Great golfers work incredibly hard.
There is no substitute for skill. The third component is patience. During this U.S. Open competition, two people have caught the imagination of the crowds, Payne Stewart and Matt Kuchar. Payne has been around the PGA Tour for years. He won the Open and started strong a few years ago, but has had 7 dry years of traveling the world, practicing and waiting for his time to come again.
