You guys know something.
After coaching juniors for 28 years in Kansai and helping tons of low ranked players in Kobe move up in the ranking.
The one thing that I have discovered is that...
90% of all competitive tennis players will be in and out of tennis slumps because they don't know what game they are REALLY playing during and in competition.
It's like.
They think they are playing tennis in their matches, when in reality, they are playing the mental game and this is why they mentally struggle throughout their careers.
The sad part about this whole problem for players is that...
"Most coaches don't even know how to coach the mental game, because they have no coaching philosophy that is updated or modern."
Okay, with that being the case.
I have some good news for you guys.
If you are in a slump right now.
Here are 3 things that you can do to break out of it and never get into one again.
First.
"Know the game you are playing in your matches".
Understand that.
You are not playing tennis, but you are playing the mental game. ( write it down on something and read it before and during your matches for the next 2 months)
You have to work on your mental game daily, and you have to work on it as twice as much as your tennis training.
Once you reach a certain level and have hit tons of balls and discover your authentic style of play.
It's mental reps all day, every day.
Second.
Stop mentally playing movies of your past matches in your mind that you lost or fail in.
To break out of a slump.
You have to see yourself playing in a new tennis mental movie that you consciously create.
In other words.
Become your own director and never allow others to direct your tennis movies unconsciously.
Never forget that.
You are a reproduction of your own thoughts.
And the last and most important thing that you have to do is...
Become the player that you would hate to play against.
Think about those mentally tough players that you hate to face in matches right now or imagine who it could or would be...
Now.
Become that player yourself in the next 2 months.
Meditate on this type player and then start acting and feeling the part, until you are unconsciously playing the part.
This is how the world-class player reverses and engineers their own way to the top of the tour!!!!
It's powerful and it works for them and it can work for you.
You can use all 3 of these warrior tips to break out of your slump and never get into one again in your career.
