I was sitting around last night thinking about a good topic for sports this week. I haven't been following much baseball and the NBA is still in the semifinals- if you can believe it. I thought well, there is always golf.
It seems to me that Kenny Perry has developed a magnificent obsession to make the 2008 Ryder Cup Team, which will play at Vahalla Golf Club in Perry's home state Kentucky. If you look at his track record the past few years, there is not a lot to speak of other than a great year in 2005. This year he looks like a different man. He has developed what the great insurance pioneer, W Clement Stone, called a Magnificent Obsession. Perry looks consumed with this goal. He was in the last group at the Players. He finished 2nd last week after losing in a playoff. He had a 3rd place earlier this year at the Bob Hope and he hasn't missed a cut since January. He has his sights set and I bet he reaches his goal.
What if we all could make a decision as to what we actually want- and then move toward it with a magnificent obsession to reach our goal?
