Hitting hard

Hi guy's & gal's

I've only been playing golf a few months " twice a week " and at first i stood on the tee trying to smash the cover of the ball and i had so many issues , cutting left , topping the ball you name it. The guy's i've been playing with told me to slow the swing down and straight away i've seen a MASSIVE difference resulting in straighter shots and lower scores consistently BUT now i find myself on a par 5 looking at the flag and again wanting to smash the ball to reach again resulting in a shocking shot.

I'm wondering how you compose yourself and talk yourselves out of doing risky stupid shots?

Thanks.

Looking forward to Swinger answering this question. :)
