what to do once you reached your goal?

[patricks148]

my aim has been to get to 5 since i started playing in 2006.

I reached that the other week and have made buffer and got 0.2 cut as well since getting to 5. So i can play to it OK.

What do i do now?

Do I try and get lower still and hope the current Mrs148 does not remember I said I would give up once i got to 5?

quickly get to 4 and then give up when you are back to 5 (as you obviously meant with your original goal....)

YOU SAID WHAT!!!!!!
Does she have to ever find out?
Which would you prefer to do give up golf or get a new Mrs148?
Easy option is to say "I ment when I get to +5!"

does she even care! you out the house for 5hrs 3 times a week she would probably pay for


p.s your first goal wasnt big enough, zillions of players on 5 and not much difference between them and 5-9h/caps imo.

go for 3.............why not? feint heart never...............you know the rest

Could be a tough ask, with only 0.1 reductions from now on..

....but it can be 0.3 or 0.4 or 0.5 blah blah

go for it, be inspired

 

[Foxholer]

You tell her! Men don't do deceit well!

Oh and make another target!

For both reasons it would be a waste to not take full advantage of the whole year's sub you've paid for. And you'd just get under her feet too!

 

[Deleted member 15344]

I never set myself any goals in terms of HC or scoring etc - that way will never have any pressure to reach any goal.

 

[Garush34]

Just set another target. A target shouldn't be the end of the road it should just be a stepping stone in a journey. The journey has no end point cos you never know how far you can go untill you try.

Seems like a waste of hard work to just give up now.

 

[HawkeyeMS]

Set yourself another goal. Perhaps just to finish the season on 5?

 

[nemicu]

Hate to sound like Seymour Skinner, but see how far you can go - and then try and break that record.

 

[chrisd]

Simple ... Just tell her that now you've got to 5 you can give up trying to get there, surely that's what you meant! :whoo:

 

[Evesdad]

Why would you want to give up? The fun has surely just started!

 

[Oddsocks]

Move the target Patrick

Mine was single figs, got there and playing to and below it, today proved 5/6 is achieveable this season so my target is now 6. I'd be happy to get to 7

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Congratulations on reaching such a great standard. Keep going and see how far you can really take it.

 

[Tommo21]

Just staying at 5 is a good goal for starters.........

 

[Hendo007]

Give up the golf as you said you would and take up Lawn Bowls instead.

A few weeks of coming home absolutely sozzled several times a week should see her buying you a new set of shineys and paying your next years subs.....

You know it makes sense.

 

[FairwayDodger]

Similar for me but I made my short term goal staying in cat 1 and longer term I want to get down lower. I briefly hit 4, would love to get to 3 but very challenging to keep dropping from here....
