#138: [Inside the Mind] Dr. Bob Winters: Building an Elite Golf Mindset for Peak Performance

Dr. Bob Winters—The Confidence Doctor—is back for round two, and this conversation is a straight-up masterclass in what actually creates elite confidence. Because here's the truth: most golfers (and high performers) don't have an information problem. They have a compliance problem. We talk about why "positive thinking" is useless without "positive doing," how Dr. Bob uses a deceptively simple question—"Are you good?"—to expose blind spots, and why real confidence is earned through proof, not hype. We also go to a deeper place: the cost of becoming elite. The strain. The sacrifice. The quiet moments where you wonder if it's worth it. And why, for the people who truly want it, the hard is what makes it great. In this episode, you'll learn: Why "positive doing" is the missing link between ambition and results The simple question that exposes confidence… or hidden self-doubt How to stop "knowing what to do" but still not doing it What elite performers do differently when setbacks knock them down The real cost of elite confidence—and why it's worth paying How to use selective attention to train your focus (and your results) Why compliance is the separator between winners and wannabes Get your pencils ready and start listening.
