Summary

There are many exercise programs out there to choose from; however, choosing martial arts as that exercise venue is a big decision.  As in all sports, dedication and discipline are required in your chosen sport to become good.  In choosing the martial arts as your pursuit, that dedication and discipline is at a very high standard.  It becomes a lifetime devotion which is geared towards a code of honor, a creed to follow, and responsibility to carry your skills to a higher human level.  This book is not just about martial arts or about you making a survival choice regarding a self-defense endeavor; it is also about life and longevity as well as how to stay and maintain that state of physical well-being.  This maintenance or balance formulates the essence of “Taijiquan” the philosophical concept for both its defense training and its health benefits.  I hope in reading this book it will help you to choose wisely.

What would happen if the masters of different martial art’s academies join forces to devise one master form of martial arts?  This should include all the martial arts systems, styles, philosophies, and functionalities and to embrace the hidden secrets of their individual styles and formulate one master super self-defense universal system that is all incorporating and encompassing.  A structure in which entails the very essence of human survival.  This new system of martial arts would maintain the subsistence for the sacredness and protection of our evolutionary way.   This “way” is the continuation of the human-species.  Longevity depends on maintaining your survival skills and survival skills depend on maintaining your health.  It is all tied together and there is no separation of these factors.  This book is about that; to maintain and live a healthy and long life through the use of the martial arts format.  I called the union above “The Yoda System.”

    Mental toughness in Golf 3 of 10 Concentration 
    Concentration, or the ability to focus on the task at hand while ignoring distractions, is crucial for success in golf. This is true because golf is a “stop-start” game in which at least 90% of your time on the course is spent doing something other than hitting the ball. And because there is a lot of walking and mental “down time” between your shots, a multitude of distractions can arise and divert your focus from the present moment. For example, a sudden noise or movement from a playing partner could upset your swing or you may find yourself thinking too far ahead as you face a putt. And like most players, you probably find it difficult to forget about a missed opportunity that occurred several holes back. Unfortunately, each of these distractions could prove costly to your score. 
    Contains 6 special tips to improve concentration in your game, and a short visualisation exercise involving a short putt. 
    Written by Professor Aidan Moran. Aidan is Director of the Psychology Research Laboratory in University College, Dublin. Aidan’s work for the last twenty years has included one to one coaching on mental toughness with top players including Major winners. Narrated by Sara Dylan
