Unfortunately, what most people do is listen to everyone else around them, quit it! This is the worse way in the world to perfect your golf swing; the operative word here is "your".

Then take a your left foot and move it forward towards the target your back foot should then be moved away from the target. Now you are properly squared to the ball and your swing will begin to work for you properly. More than likely it will feel awkward at first because you have been doing it incorrectly for so long.
