The Open is Over - What do you need to focus on in the next 11 months?

  The Open is over. Whether you love it or hate it, it is what most of us train for. That one time a year where we really get to push ourselves and see how we measure up.  You probably had some great workouts and some horrible ones. You might be happy with how you did or you might be very disappointed. In either case, now that it is over, it is a good time to reflect on your own performance and ask yourself some tough questions.     1. What did you do well?   2. What did you do...

Sometimes 80% isn't good enough

I am sure we have all heard someone say 80% will be good enough. If you really want to excell, if you reall want to achieve your life goals, sometimes 80% may not be enough.  Lately I have been on a new eating plan and 9 weeks it in it is all going very well and it has made me reflect on why this time it has been successful and why I am going to achieve what I have been trying to achieve for 3 or 4 years. There are several reasons I can point to but the single biggest...
