I know it’s been a while ago since I’ve published a post, and this one won’t be too long neither. Anyway.
So tomorrow there is my first two days golf training workshop in Hannover. For me it’s quite a big thing, because I’ve never done anything like this before. I am really excited for tomorrows, so I got myself some real thoughts about what this thing really means to me. I ended up with thousands of unordered note snippets in my head, but some, in my view are really important for me to have a calm weekend and that I can concentrate on the things for which this workshop is intended for. To improve my golf specific skills.
One thing is what I want to achieve with these workshops. I won’t stay there forever, especially after next year, when I’ll have to go one step further. The GVNB team from 14 years and higher. I need to improve, thats why it is important to stay training, even in winter and to attend these workshops.
But I don’t only do this to stay in the GVNB team. Its also a big thing for my nearer future. Nobody knows what will happen this year, next year or in 5 years. Maybe I’ll go to the US to a golf college, maybe I lost my passion in golf after some time, but what I then learned is helpful for anything what I am going to do then. Maybe not the golf technics when I become a journalist, but just imagen all the things I’ve learned through the workshops then. The overcoming to start something new. Discipline. Self confidence. I could go on forever…
In my opinion everyone who starts something new, unknown, should first think about the things you could learn for yourself, job, lifestyle. And with these things I don’t only mean the obvious stuff like having a temporarily free mind after visiting a writing block help group, but the things you take with you and can get back to anytime in life, thoughts or ideas which make your life easier, but first have to be detected. It can e.g. happen that your writing block comes back after some months, but the ideas you got through visiting that workshop or group can help you cleaning up your mind again so the blockade has disappeared.
When I take these points with me over the weekend, I guess I don’t need to be afraid of anything, “just do your thing”.
