My breakthrough was a mindset change. I spent a couple years trying to hold rounds together. I'd stand on 15 and think "4 more pars and I shoot 78." I'd end of ejecting and shooting 82. Now I try and think "4 more birdies and I shoot 74". I Earley finish with 4 birdies, but that mindset helped me breakthrough. It isn't just the last four. If I bogey 1, my thought is "17 more birdie opportunities"

I do better not knowing my score. I used to look add up the front nine and would either be happy or mad. I quit adding it up until I finished. I still have an idea of what I am shooting though but I try not to think about it. Play every hole against par.

I know someone who breaks down their round into 3 holes at a time trying to be 1 over or better through each stretch. Every 3 is a reset.

Me, I try to be one shot at a time not thinking too far ahead and ignoring completely what has just happened. I’m not always successful.
