0:00.0 | Hey, welcome to today's micro show. It's Chase. Let's get into it because I want to share today |
0:10.0 | seven lessons, seven important life lessons that I've learned from golf. Now, before you hang up, |
0:16.8 | wait a minute, I'm not a golfer. During the pandemic, it's a little story time here. During |
0:21.1 | the pandemic, I rediscovered golf. I played as a young person. I used to ride around on the cart |
0:25.4 | with my dad when I was a little kid. I got interested. He cut down some golf clubs for me and |
0:29.4 | stuck a grip on him. You know, you've maybe seen some of those funny internet videos. That was me as a kid. I gave it up for like 27 years. At first I was, you know, in college. I was |

1:34.4 | into this game that I thought was a little strange. But here's what I discovered. I discovered |
1:39.2 | something remarkable. The lessons that I learned on the golf course, they go way beyond golf, right? They |
1:46.1 | transcend the boundaries of the game and they've become guiding principles in so many aspects |
1:51.8 | of my life. And I thought sharing a little personal anecdote here around golf and some very, |
