| Understanding this game. Research is now telling us that understanding our chosen field is paramount to success. They say we must have complete knowledge of what we intend to accomplish if we are to succeed and reach our goals. This seems like an obvious statement yet many players skip vital parts of their training and never reach the level of success they desire. Let's be comfortable with the idea that we need to be fully versed in all aspects of the wonderful world of pocket billiards. We need to be committed to hard work in a consistent training program and be clear about the level we want to achieve. Where do we start? Many of my students who order THE MONK TO THE MAX write to me after they receive their big package and wonder just where do they begin their studies? The Monk 101 teaching material covers a wide range of subjects on the art of pocket billiards. You will not get through these books and dvd's in a short time. It would take a long time to fully understand all that is involved. Once you complete your study you would have the complete knowledge you are seeking. This is done in a step by step effort or one will get lost along in the wayside and never make it back. Research suggests that exceptional achievers are getting older. Good news for me! Success comes to a person who has worked hard, learned a great deal about his domain and applied that knowledge to skill development. We know that Tiger Woods won the Masters at a very young age. He had been training for this tournament for over 17 years!!! While there may be these young super stars popping up out of nowhere you will find that they have been working on their craft for a very long time. If you begin to train in the proper manner you can achieve success at any age. Older players think they have no chance but the facts are, almost all winners’ have been training for many years. If we are willing to put in that sort of time we can stand in the winners’. The key is not to waste time. I have been involved in my books and dvd's for the last year or so as I intend to put aside my teaching to establish a program that will bring pocket billiards into the age where it is once again an art form. I put together The Monk Master Trainers Book which is a complete training program that will take you to that winners circle. As I have been putting this together I find that I am actually re-learning my own material. So much of it was written in a burst of enlightenment that I did not fully understand it. My research began when a player asked me, “Where do I start? What order to I follow?” There is so much material here. I set up my camp in a resort in Florida and worked ten hour days on The Monk Master Trainers Book so I could fully understand how to answer that question. In other words, I learned my own material. I became well versed in The Monk 101 program. My twenty five years of research and teaching has not been wasted. The Monk Master Trainers Book is the mother lode of pocket billiards instruction. We need to know the material so we can reach a high level of skill execution. All that goes into a stroke comes from years of training and the acquisition of specific knowledge. How long would it take to acquire a complete understanding of this game? It would take two years to master the material in The Monk Masters Trainers Book. You would need to be diligent in your training and learning. Unless your training is specific and deliberate you will not reach your goals. You will be going around in circles and many of you have been at the same place for years. If you are not infected with bad habits you can reach your pocket billiards goals in two years. Those who are ruled by bad habits can overcome this by taking a two day lesson and going through The Masters of Art in Pocket Billiards. You need a coach, a good coach who knows what he/she are doing. Some players get stuck in the Warrior Learning Stage and never break through. All they do is learn and nothing happens. I don't want that to happen to you. I want to help you break through to the next level. |
