I understand that everyone, including champions, has occasional doubts. No one should be upset if doubt occasionally enters his mind. But whether they are golfers or people in other endeavors, individuals who achieve durable, frequent success are optimists. They shake off their doubts and know in their heads and in their hearts that in the long run, they are going to be successful, they’re going to have great careers, everything will fall into place, and wonderful things will happen to them—if they keep doing the right stuff.
