Uphill and Downhill WITH AN UPHILL lie, you are going to pull the ball. Go ahead and make allowance for it. Shorten your uphill leg and straighten the other, so that your hips are level. You will naturally play the ball back in your stance, but don’t let your weight shift back with it. On a downhill lie, straighten your downhill leg and flex the uphill leg, again to level the hips. Play the ball back toward your right foot. Sole your club on the ground and the manufacturer will tell you about where it belongs when the face is square. You may hit the ball a little to the right. But do not play for a slice off a downhill lie. If you do, you are in danger of shanking it.

Harvey Penick's Little Red Book

Harvey Penick, Davis Love III (Introduction)

Most people, even adults, have never attained a level of performance in any field that is sufficient to show them the true power of mental representations to plan, execute, and evaluate their performance in the way that expert performers do. And thus they never really understand what it takes to reach this level—not just the time it takes, but the high-quality practice. Once they do understand what is necessary to get there in one area, they understand, at least in principle, what it takes in other areas.

Peak

Anders Ericsson, Robert Pool

If I’m asked what the next most important quality is for a novelist, that’s easy too: focus—the ability to concentrate all your limited talents on whatever’s critical at the moment.
