Last night after sinking a couple of very long putts, one of the women in my group said that she had been telling herself that she was going to make the putt before she hit each one. That got me thinking about the power of positive thought. I'm a firm believer in it. Are you? Do you walk up to the ball and tell yourself that you're going to make the shot?

I would like to take this a bit further. Most of us agree that positive thinking helps but, my question is, how do you maintain positive thinking when you are having a really bad day on the course? Or how do you discount a bad day (at work, etc) and not let it bother you on the course?
