Mark Gabrielli is a lifelong athlete and builder who writes at markgabrielli.com about discipline, getting better, and the games and habits that shaped him. Golf shaped him more than anything else.
Golf mainly, and it shaped him most. He also bowls, shoots archery, and fishes, including fly fishing and offshore. He learned to draw as well.
Going from a 12 to 14 handicap down to a 3 after a PGA Tour pro taught him the three quarter punch shot with a small cut. The change was learning to control the ball rather than hit it hard, swinging around 70 percent instead of full effort. His best round is 4 under par and he played out of Green Pond Country Club through high school and college.
Four things. The field, meaning sport and what it taught him about work. The work, meaning what he has built and got wrong. The learning, meaning school and everything after it. And the table, meaning family.
Because a book is finished the day it prints and he is not finished. The site is a living record he can keep revising rather than a thing that stops being true.
