Never Allow Fear to Over Take You

By Paul Van

Why is it that Tiger Woods can be trailing in a golf tournament and come back to win? Tiger does not have any fear of his game because he practices to keep it at the championship level.

After glimpsing the Buick Open recently I observed the fear factor in the leaders prior to the final round of the tournament. Two golfers were seemingly ahead to stay, however a tiger was lurking in the shadows waiting to over take them.

People making observations about Tiger Woods say, "He is too good or he is lucky." Tiger Woods is a great golfer because he faces his fears.

What do I mean by this? Tiger has flaws just like any other golfer on the PGA tour, the difference is he consistently works on his flaws and in times when he needs to call upon his weaknesses to be a strength, the consistent preparation pays off time and time again.

You are no different, albeit your game may be that of an accountant or a banker. The philosophy is the same, if you consistently work on your weaknesses, in moments of trials or tribulations you have prepared yourself accordingly and will succeed because you don not fear the outcome, rather you dictate the outcome of a business venture.

Once you begin to understand the importance of preparation your skill level increases exponentially. Never allow fear to over take you. The bottom line is your preparation will make a world of difference in your life and that of others.
