It's important to remove all distractions, like the ball, the hazards and people. Several of the drills are most effectively done while looking in a mirror. By doing this, you can get instant feedback. You'll be able to see whether or not you're doing the drills correctly. If the drills are done daily, before long, the proper motions will become habit, and during that one second swing, your body will go into the positions you've trained it to go into.
Patience is important when forming new habits.
Most sports psychologists agree that to form a new habit, you must correctly do 50 repetitions a day for 21 straight days. You'll be tempted to try to think your way through each swing when you're on the golf course, but try not to. When you're over the ball, it's time to swing. If you've formed good habits, you'll hit good shots. Jon Ebert, a golf consultant and teaching professional, writes for the Naples Daily News in Florida.
