Buddhism teaches that a craving for things outside ourselves causes an unhappy and pointless search for security. It teaches me to stop following every impulse and to learn restraint. Obviously I lost track of what I was taught.

My main focus is on my game.

Younger guys now are all working out, and you find that if everyone's doing it and you're not doing it, you're going to be left behind.
Tiger Woods
Image
In retrospect, golf for me was an apparent attempt to emulate the person I looked up to more than anyone: my father. He was instrumental in helping me develop the drive to achieve, but his role, as well as my mother's, was one of support and guidance, not interference.

I'll tell you what, I've been in some seriously bad places playing golf and it's just part of the game.
Tiger Woods
Image
My dad was a big believer of having a golf club that fit me. Always have a golf club that fits you, so you don't have to make any swing compensations for that particular golf club.

You have to look at the past in order to learn from it and move on. I've done a lot of reflecting over the past year. And certainly, I've turned the corner and am looking more toward the future in a lot of ways.

Don't force your kids into sports. I never was. To this day, my dad has never asked me to go play golf. I ask him. It's the child's desire to play that matters, not the parent's desire to have the child play. Fun. Keep it fun.

People don't understand that when I grew up, I was never the most talented. I was never the biggest. I was never the fastest. I certainly was never the strongest. The only thing I had was my work ethic, and that's been what has gotten me this far.

I'm lucky to have been able to represent different companies over my career.
Tiger Woods
Image
My failures have made me look at myself in a way I've never wanted to before.

Education is a priority over any sport because without a mind you can't contribute to society.

I've been going to chiropractor for as long as I can remember. It's as important to my training as practicing my swing.
Tiger Woods
Image
You ever go up to the tee and say, 'Don't hit it left, don't hit it right'? That's your conscious mind. My body knows how to play golf. I've trained it to do that. It's just a matter of keeping my conscious mind out of it.

As you all know, I'm kind of a perfectionist.
Tiger Woods
Image
I'm going to try to keep getting better.
Tiger Woods
Image
I don't think you're ever there. You never arrive, but if you do, you might as well quit because you're already there. Can't get any better. And as players, if you ever have that moment - you should never have that moment. You're always trying to get better.

Golf is something I do selfishly for myself.

Image
Your private life, exposed, has a lingering effect on your mind and your game.

I don't believe that human beings can achieve ultimate enlightenment, because humans have flaws.
