Hey @Coles who do I contact to make a complaint? I ordered online delivery. After 2 emails, 1 phone call, 1 online chat, they all told me it was delivered. Then another online chat, after 1 hour, confirmed they delivered to the wrong address. 4 days later. Not even an apology.
Hey @sendle why does it take one week to send a package 15 kilometers in Sydney Australia?
Amen 🙏
The #1 thing players bring up that they want to improve is moving on from bad shots
By far and away this is what I talk about most in 1-on-1 mental coaching sessions
So as I like to do, I respond with a question:
Why is it hard for you to move on from bad shots?
This can go several different directions, but the most common answer has something to do with frustration
But that's not deep enough. We've gotta know what the source of the issue is
So I ask something like "Why are bad shots frustrating?"
And eventually we get to the bottom of it
Which is usually something to do with how they see themselves as a golfer, and a person
If you believe that in order to be the golfer you see yourself as you need to hit every shot well, then yeah you're going to be frustrated and that bad shot is going to stick with you
And then you're going to double down on the next one and feel like you absolutely for sure have to hit this next one good or your view of yourself as the type of player who plays good will crumble
Instead, seeing yourself as a work in progress is one of the best mentality shifts to have in order to uproot the unhelpfully constricting identity we create
Needing things to go a certain way to be happy is a sure fire way to play really protective and scared
Being ok that things won't go perfectly, and no golfer no matter how good they are will play perfect golf
Also- quit watching golf highlight reels, those aren't helping the identity expectations 😆
The surface area of luck increases if you get more shots on goal, you're well-positioned, you have a long time horizon, you have access to a network of successful people, and you mix curiosity, energy, and integrity.

I've worked myself to the point of burnout twice.
But in 2020, I finally got it under control.
Here are my 8 anti-burnout tips for solopreneurs:
Omg @JetstarAirways never again. 1.5hrs before departure. Car and hotel booked. Staff at service desk don’t know what they are doing. Disaster.
Hey @Wotif bought a place 12 months ago. Used to be a B&B, but not anymore. It’s still on wotif. 3 people have turned up so far, have been disappointed that they can’t stay in my residence. Have tried calling 3 times. virtual assist hangs up. Need property off wotif. Next steps?
