And James Clear talks about this in Atomic Habits, that great book.

If you want to start running, can you put your shoes, your running shoes by the door?

That's the first step.

Can you just do that?

And the next day, can you just put them on and walk around the house?

and take these very small steps.

It's like Teddy Scott, Scotty Scheffler's wonderful caddy, the world number one.

He's also a coach.

And he says, what I try to do with most of my clients is help them lower their expectations to what they know they can do.

It's kind of like, how can I help them be present?

Can you, if you're putting, can you hit this on the center of the club face?

Like a mantra you have.

Yeah, it's like a mantra.

Very powerful.

Yeah.

This morning, I drove here from central New Jersey, and the GPS said it was going to take under two hours, and it was all close to four hours, and threw rush hour traffic into Manhattan.

And I've been working on a book and not a ton of sleep lately.

And so the thoughts on the way here, one, I was really working hard and not getting caught up in my circumstance of rush hour traffic for four hours.

But the thought of what if I'm forgetful or it doesn't go well and I don't share some good ideas.

And I was in the bathroom as soon as I got here.
