How to become a good golfer?

I started my design of a learning program on skill but lately I have been thinking of golf as a mental game. Both qualities technical skill and mental strength are important, BUT...

To become a good golfer you need to be a person that others like to play with. Golf is fun. It's a social game. You might be judge by a score of a single round, but I more important is to atmosphere you create in the group. If you can help other play well, it will affect your play too.

Just a thought...
