Career musings....

Hello once more.

My sincerest apologies for the tardiness of this blog. Its been a month now since the last blog, far too long!!

There's been some personal stuff going on but I won't air it as this blog wasn't created for those purposes. All i'll say is that everyone involved has dealt with the situation brilliantly and I know things will be fine in the long run. Can't elaborate more on that!

Rach and I still don't know any more about our house unfortunately, god it seems like this whole thing has been going on forever now but we've come this far, so we'll see it through to the end.

My golf has been decidedly 'iffy' and it's been driving me nuts. It's typical of the game really. Not too long ago I played the steadiest game of my life and then it changes and I lose the plot! I guess that's the thrill of the game really, striving hard to play your best every time.
I must have hit over 1000 practise balls this past week, I've worked really damn hard and thankfully today i've found some answers and I've suddenly become super confident again. I tell you something, noone can accuse me of not dedicating myself to my golf. I've endured time-after-time of playing and practising for literally hours without feeling like i've achieved anything at the end of it so I deserve something good to happen to me. Actually, correct that, I've learned that even with hard work and desire that it still doesn't mean success will be derived from doing so. I'm convinced it must increase your chances though so thats why I stick with it. In a harsh bit of personal reality, all I want to do is play golf for a living and I refuse to accept that it won't happen!
I could do without having to do 3 years of assignments and exams so that I have alternatives if I'm not good enough as a player - which in all honestly I'm perhaps not but I won't accept that till I feel I can't get any better. Truth is, if I can't play golf I don't know where my career interests really lie!
I have been enjoying teaching and i've been studying a lot as I feel that this is perhaps my direction in life - to teach full time and play in every tournament I can. That wouldn't be too bad actually although it would definitely be career choice 'b'!

Oh well, I guess this blog demonstrates that 'life as a pro golfer' isnt always very exciting. This is the reality I've come to realise. However, 2 years time I'll be fully qualified and can do whatever I want to do which'll be great! I can't wait!!!

I think that brings everything up to speed. Till next time......
