The S.U.C.C.E.S.S. Path | Episode 2: Use Your Tools
Welcome to Episode 2 of The S.U.C.C.E.S.S. Path — the 7-day series on the exact steps my most successful clients took to transform their mental game.
Today's episode: Use Your Tools
Jennifer decided to actually use one of the tools I teach — the CCC tracker (tracking calm, certain, and confident shots).
At first, she was at 67% calm, certain, and confident — and shooting mid-80s.
As she improved that number to 76%, she was shooting low-80s.
Then she hit 92% calm, certain, and confident — and shot 76.
But here's what really drove it home: when she stopped tracking, her numbers went back up.
The tool only worked when she used it.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- Why your tools are the reps for your brain
- The toolkit available inside Your Mental Caddy (Mental Prep Protocol, CCC Tracker, Reality Check, Brain Dump, STEAR)
- Why tools don't work in your head — they work in your hands
- How to pick ONE tool and commit to using it consistently
