I am very pleased that Victor and Becca wrote about our BNG meeting where we discussed, What Kind of Ball Are You? It was a stimulating discussion and I was very impressed with the BNG members.
Here is my part of the story.
I love golf. I mean, really love it. I started playing golf when I was in high school. My dad and my brothers played golf. We watched golf on TV. Growing up, I thought Arnold Palmer was the most important man in America.
My mom took up golf at age 63. My son and daughter play golf. My favorite times were on a golf course in Arizona when my mom and dad and my husband and me and our kids all played golf together. That is one of the cool things about golf, different ages and different ability levels can play together. Like in golf, in my life, I have friends who are very different from me yet we can enjoy being friends. They make my life richer. In my work, I value the chance to team with a diverse group of people.
From the time I started playing golf, I was best at hitting the t-shot. The long shot. The big shot. If I could do something different in life, I would own a driving range and hit golf balls most of the day and instruct others about the big shot the rest of the day (and pass along my advice on living a good life).
In my life and in my work, I like the big idea. I can't turn off the ideas in my head. I am always coming up with ideas. But I don't stop there. You can't play golf only hitting the drive. You have to finish the hole. You have to chip and putt. Sometimes those shots aren't much fun, but they are necessary to finish the hole. I start with the big idea, then, I know how to finish.
In golf, I am responsible for my own score. I play the game alone or with others. The others don't have to be similar to me. I follow a set of rules. Yep, that sounds like my life and my work.
