Did you get more upset before training in meditation?
Lahiri: Absolutely. I still get upset on the course and that’s a healthy thing, as it reflects your care and that you are trying. But it’s how long I get upset, or how intensely I react, how quickly I can look at it with perspective. These are the factors that determine how quickly you can move on or learn from it or overcome it.
Do you recommend setting goals?
Lahiri: You can set goals for sure. I feel you have to set two goals. You set long term goals or yearly goals or five-year goals, and then you set mini goals, that is measurable, tangible. To measure in your own mind, your own progress with the work you’re putting in, that’s very important because that gives you a perspective of where you are going.”
Do you feel you can control what’s going to happen during the round?
Johnson: Control what you can control. And that means everything: from how you walk, how you talk, how you’re walking to the ball, to how many swings you take, how many looks you take, things you can control. After that, it’s irrelevant.
