In today’s show I get the chance to chat to my good friend Gary Nicol.

Gary spent over 20 years coaching at the very highest level of the game of golf on the European Tour

He worked with many tournament winners and Ryder Cup players

In our time together we discuss what he found to work best by actually being at the ‘coal face’ of coaching

To be out there on the European Tour for so long tells you an awful lot about how effective a coach is.

The Tour is a tough taskmaster in the sense that if you don’t get results with players you get fired!

Rapidly

Gary found that simplicity was the key to peak performance but underpinning this was a vast knowledge of the intricacies of the game and more importantly cause and effect.

As I once heard

‘It takes a very bright man to keep it simple’

Gary does that better than most

In our time together we also discuss how Gary came to find the simple principles of INTENTION and ATTENTION so very important for his coaching and how he now realises that a lot of his successful coaching was down to his ability to keep a player’s attention in a USEFUL place

Whatever you aim to get from this podcast to boost your brain Gary has some tremendous insights gained from practical real word application
