People mistrust (and even fear) that which they do not understand. That mistrust and fear is exacerbated when the 'redeeming' message is delivered without empathy -- and even with arrogance -- in a language they do not understand.
The mind of a Golfer -- whether Instructor, Student or Performer -- must be won. It cannot be commanded.
How can perceptions be changed?
Adopt the approach of
Homer Kelley:
Resolute in Principle...
Strong in Character...
But gentle in Spirit and respectful of his fellow man.
In short...
The Humble Approach.
