Welp, when the first (and usually only) answer to failure is, "you're trying too hard and over-thinking it", you tend to get weak minds.
I'm not lost on the concept of over-thinking a putt in golf - I can connect those theoretical dots - but this ain't golf and rarely does a golfer miss the ball, they simply miss the hole. I'd be happy if when our guys over-thought their shit and followed it up with trying to hard, they'd actually make contact the the ****ing ball!
So, like it was years ago, it's still time to tell these guys to be scared because you'll fire them (and then fire a few), and tell them when they fail, they need to try even harder. Take MANY more hours of BP, study the ****ing game, neglect you family (like the rest of the world does in this day and age!), and get in the ****ing gym and don't come out until you're a ****ing beast. Essentially live and breath THIS GAME and every possible aspect of it, forsake all else, for the glory of the game and the glory of becoming an idol.... And if you juice, make sure you're two steps ahead of testers. But let them know it's fully supported. For it, for that time you spend in bed each night, you can have a different hot chick to fulfill your desires - and that's what it's all about at that age. Spend 10-12 years as a stud, then go back and find one of those hot chicks, marry her, have 2.5 kids and ride off into the sunset at a loved hero instead of somebody who was/is a joke who played (badly) for the Royals...
Try that mindset for 7 years and let's see where it gets us!
