Abstract/Contents: | Suggests that "having an attitude that focuses on what cannot be attempted, rather than what is possible, becomes tiring and results in little progress toward achieving the goals put forth for improvement." Continues that "a can-do attitude is a must during a sluggish golf economy," and that it may be possible to develop a workable maintenance strategy despite limited resources or budget cuts. Recommends exploring alternatives and communicating with golfers about their expectations for the course. Concludes that "focusing on the possibilities can transform many challenges into opportunities." |
