People often laughed at me. All other sports I have been real good at but not golf. Before summer this year my colleagues at work persuaded me to attend a beginners course in golf. At the beginning \u00a0I was a very nervous putter\u00a0where I\u00a0did not\u00a0have any controll of my left arm and it jerked as soon as I tried to put the golf ball. Inspired by Tim Galloway , the author of the \u201cInner game of tennis\u201d,\u00a0 I gave my arm permission on failure, \u00a0gave my arm<\/p>\n<p>permission to be tensed, looking at my arm and told it to be relaxed. Saying to myself<\/p>\n<p>I realy dont care if the golf ball gets into the hole or not, dont care at all about people<\/p>\n<p>what they think, \u00a0dont care the least. At the same time during a couple of weeks \u00a0I practiced putting at home repeating those sentences to myself .Like a miracle, \u00a0after a while my putting gets perfect\u00a0and my arm stays loose and dont get tensed.<\/p>\n<p>Now I realy dont care about people on the golf court it feels fantastic. I can concentrate and focus on my putting and have 100 procent controll of it and at the same time I don\u2019t do any judgments at all about my putting I only enjoy it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a text I wrote to the Redefining stuttering- group on facebook:\u00a0 I started to play golf just before summer.
