You probably have a pre-shot routine to get your body and mind ready for the shot you’re about to hit. But have you ever considered a post-shot routine? Dr. Carly Hunt, a sports and performance psychologist, says that having a post-shot routine can help you nimbly move from one shot to the next.

When I was playing Division III college golf, I went through a particularly uninspiring stretch of putting. Someone advised me to tell myself, ‘I’m the best putter in the world’ each time I set foot on the green. He was trying get me to create confidence so big that it removed any doubt from my mind. He was trying to help me fake it until I made it. I understood all of that, and I appreciated that he was trying to help, but it didn’t work.
