Better Golf Daily: Suckville Series - The Expectation Trap

In 1978, researchers tracked down actual lottery winners and compared their day-to-day happiness to their next-door neighbors — and also to people who'd just survived life-changing accidents. The results were not what anyone expected, and they explain something about golf that most of us have never quite put into words. Episode two of the Suckville series picks up where we left off: why hitting your goals almost never feels the way you think it will, and why chasing a number is quietly setting you up to be disappointed no matter what you shoot. There's a shift you can make today that actually fixes it.
