The majority of existing transition planning programs are focused on people with a disability in general and may not meet the specific need of adolescents on the autism spectrum. In addition, these interventions focus on specific skills (e.g. job readiness or self-determination) rather than the overall transition planning process and there are methodological limitations to many of the studies determining their efectiveness.

Hall of Fame golfer Ben Hogan once remarked that golf is 100 percent mental and 100 percent physical, and the two factions of golf cannot and should not be separated. I agree. By its very nature, golf is both physical and mental. It also has a strong emotional component that makes it the toughest and greatest game ever created. On the professional golf tours, what separates winning golfers is the strength of their mental game and emotional resiliency.

Several years ago someone told me that once you hit thirty-five you have to work harder just to keep playing golf at the same level. I want to play until I’m fifty-five, and I don’t want to be one of those guys just barely clinging to the PGA Tour. I want to keep getting better and I want to win. So when I turned thirty-five, I hired Boris Kuzmic as my personal trainer and started working out. I liked Boris’s background as both a professional golfer and fitness expert, and with the workout plan he designed for me, my torso strength and flexibility improved and my clubhead speed increased,..

Primary care clinicians often provide continuity of care, emphasize prevention, and address chronic illness with their patients. All these endeavors require the active involvement of the patient in treatment planning and adherence. An active and healthy therapeutic alliance that recognizes that patients are the chief consumers of health care is essential in this regard. This critical role in directing one’s health care can be either facilitated or complicated by a patient’s emotional, cognitive, and behavioral strengths or weaknesses (ie, mental health).

Overall, the strength of evidence for specific design features in these interventions was low or insufficient. This is attributable, in large part, to differences in the types of interventions and, subsequently, in the mix of results.
