117: 6 Lessons After Quitting My Career 6 Years Ago to Play Golf (GIVEAWAY)
FREE GIVEAWAY (read below)
6 years ago today - May 11th, 2017 I left the corporate world with almost no experience with two goals... build an online business + pursue professional golf.
While the pro golf dream is long gone, high level amateur golf is still very much alive. And somehow, I've been able to build a few online businesses including this one to avoid going back to corporate America.
When you listen you will learn:
- Why you need to "swing your swing"
- How to have more fun and play better every round
- The importance of getting clear about your golf goals
And a lot more. Plus, since it's a celebration I wanted to share what I've learned in this journey to help your golf game.
Fill out this short survey and I'll select the 10 best answers to get a $10 Amazon gift card. Plus, two golfers will be selected for a FREE 1:1 mental golf coaching call.
