#76: [Inside the Mind] Dr. Bob Winters (The Confidence Doctor): Building Confidence and Playing Mistake-Free Golf In this powerful episode, I sit down with renowned sports psychologist Dr. Bob Winters - affectionately known as The Confidence Doctor - to explore how true confidence is built, sustained, and reclaimed after setbacks. Dr. Winters explains why confidence isn't something you're born with - it's something you build through competence, commitment, and mental resilience.

In today's episode, you'll learn: Why confidence is earned—not inherited The difference between real confidence, arrogance, and bravado How to recover from slumps, setbacks, and embarrassing mistakes Why your physiology changes your psychology (and your performance) The two mindset trophies you must win before every round How to stop hitting “anyway” shots and start committing with clarity What Hakuna Matata and I can handle this have in common If you want to win your club championship, break 80, or just stop getting in your own way, this episode is a must-listen (and re-listen).

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Twitter: @parsoverbogeys Key Takeaways: Confidence is not arrogance—it's earned through competence and repetition Your environment, not your DNA, builds early confidence Commit 100% to your plan—especially when it matters most Real confidence doesn't need external validation Your body language influences your brain: walk like a winner Persistence > talent. Confidence is a self-fulfilling prophecy Key Quotes: Confidence is the mental and emotional strength to resist doubt, worry, and anxiety—and still move forward. The moment you change your mind, you change your game If you're always looking for others' approval, you'll always be searching. You don't fake it ‘til you make it. You do it until you become it. Average is a crowded place. Greatness is lonely—and worth it.
