Hey there — your weekly Rx. No filler, I promise.
Words Worth Keeping
"A golfer must train his swing and then trust it."
— Bob Rotella, Golf Is Not a Game of Perfect
Train it. Trust it. Read the book.
This Week at the LA Phil
On Thursday June 4, the LA Phil gives the world premiere of Bravo Gustavo! — a trumpet quartet written by John Williams specifically for our section. Let that land for a second. High pressure doesn't even begin to cover it.
The Prescription
One concert. Being recorded directly to vinyl. No edits. That's Thursday.
When the stakes are high, the squirrels in your brain are going to start doing laps. Judging. Waiting to see what mistakes you'll make. That's what gets in the way — not the preparation. The preparation is done.
I've coached this exact moment for years. Thursday it's my turn.
Train it. Trust it. Get out of your own way.
That's it. That's always it.
Happy practicing,
Chris @ Honesty Pill Coaching
