Well I am very close to you level (I did shoot a 92 last Saturday, but that is only my second time breaking 100). All I think about when I am playing is hitting the ball solid and at least 90% of the distance I have assigned for the club(except for driver I just want to hit the fairway). For instance, if I have 150 to the pin I will pull my 150 club and aim straight at the pin. From there I do not think about any hazards or obstacles around the green, all I think about is hitting the front of the ball, that way I do not hit it fat. Whether it goes right or left as long as I get 90% distance I call that a good shot. This leads me to take many positives away from each round. I might shoot a 106 but if I go back and realize that I had 30-50 good shots I am really happy with my round.
