I'm sure there's quite a few of you (at least in the U.S.) in the corporate world who haven't seen these "motivational" pictures hanging somewhere or sitting on someone's desk. Unfortunately, I can't find the older versions of these, with other golf hole pics, but can anyone names these holes/courses?
"Life is a journey... taken one shot at a time."
"Excellence is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, skillful execution and the vision to see obstacles as opportunities."
"There are many things in life that will catch your eye, but only a few will catch your heart... pursue those."
This last one looks just like where Pasatiempo is located (bay below and what appears to be Monterey Peninsula in the distance), but this is not any hole at Pasa.
One of the older ones is hanging in our fitness center, with a very faux-Scottish hole with fake mounding and maroon heather-like tall grass lining the hole, but I couldn't find it online.
"You can't set the course for where you're going until you know where you are."
We will either find a way or make one" (Myrtle Beach schlock?)
"The achievement of you goal is assured the moment you commit yourself."
"Ability may get you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there." (obviously Japan somewhere)
"The distance to success is measured by your own drive." (I know this one - Princeville (Prince) holes #13 and #14, although the picture is reversed!)
"Give every challenge your best shot."
"Our aspirations are our possibilities."
"The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity, the optmist sees opportunity in every difficulty."
(if you don't know this one....)
"The harder the course, the more rewarding the triumph."
(again, if you don't know this one....)
The ability to overcome obstacles along the way."
"Great accomplishments are performed not by strength but by determination."
(no explanation necessary)
(no exp. necessary)
That's plenty, for now.
