Thinking positively does not happen by it self. It requires aware focused attention and we need to practice it, consciously, to habitually develop the ability to think positive. The ability to think and act positive and makes it possible to turn a negative situation into positive experiences, with bonus outcomes. We can unleash our newly discovered unlimited mind power to attract success, friends and anything we desire in life. The old habits are the negative habits, which, stall us, limits us and prohibits us, to go beyond ourselves to achieve a successful life.

Positive thinking alone will not change our lives. Re-organizing our minds and our way of life (habits) will provide us with a structure and to form a solid foundation on which to build a clear vision and outlook of the present (as is) and the future (should be) situation. We create our own happiness and our own drama. If you are not currently happy do something about it. We need to Change our habits to get a different outcome?

How do we change a Habit.

* Enhance your Self Esteem - through self acceptance - to be on your own side, to affirm yourself as a human being, to be committed to your own growth, your own value as a human being. (The thought process of the (as is) situation)

* Evaluate your Self Worth - Establish and evaluate your problem and face the real problem. (as is situation)

* Ensure and re-assure your self of what you want to achieve - Your choice and decision. (What is the should be situation)

* take a stand and decide on an action plan - Consider the When, Where, Why, With Who (all the W's)

* Put your plan in action. - (Keep to the Rules)

* Evaluate whether it is working, if not, adjust. (See Reflection below)

* Reward your self when you have done well. (Keep to your Rules)

That's it - Go for It - put the habit in a bag with a cement brick and drown it. take on a Weight Loss diet and kick the old habit of being over weight!

Reflection

Do an evaluation, alone at a quiet time. Reflection is a review of the events which happened in a day. Some went great, some bad. Have you done great today? What went well and went not so well? How can you improve? Re-commit to your goals? Have you reached your goal or still far from it? Or worst still, moving further away from your goals.

To your well being!

Fun golf tournament planning can be accomplished as long as you try to keep in mind that you want it to be fun and that you can all agree on which not-too-serious golf tournament ideas to use. There are many different formats for teams of nearly all sizes and I will discuss some of them in this article. Some fun golf tournament format ideas include '123 best Ball', 'Air Presses', 'Aces And Deuces' and 'Honest John'. There are too many popular games to try to explain in such a brief article, but many can be found in golfing magazines and on-line.

When playing '1-2-3 best ball' you should have four person teams, and it is played by simply all golfers playing the entire game. When the first hole is done; the lowest score goes on the card, when the second hole is done the two lowest scores go on the card, and when the third hole is done the three lowest scores all go on the card. After three holes you start back at one.

When playing 'Aces And Deuces' the basic idea is that the lowest score is the ace, and the highest score is the deuce, who ever is the ace wins a preset amount of money from the rest of the players. The deuce on the other hand owes each of the other players a preset amount (usually half the ace) also. this is a game where even the second and third place players still get some money back in their hands, and is usually played by four people. It is a good idea to consider when planning a fun golf tournament.

In 'Air Presses' the bets are of a predetermined amount and bets are placed by the golfer who has not swung yet as it gives both the turn to up the ante. If the second golfer bets while the first golfer's drive is in the air then he would shout' air Press' and the bet would be automatically agreed on. If the first golfer shouts air press while the second golfer's drive is in the air then the bet is automatically doubled. this game is also suited for fun golf tournament planning.

'Honest John' is also a very fun way to make things a little more interesting during a nice friendly game of golf. When playing 'Honest John' each player pays an equal amount in to a pot. Each player then writes down the score he thinks he will make on the round. At the end if the round the golfer with the closest score to what he wrote down is the winner.

These are only a few examples of some fun golf tournament format ideas. You should discuss a few ideas to your group and see what the general consensus is about each idea. Remember that a fun golf tournament is no fun with a driver sticking out of your head.
