First off.
Before I get into the post.
These tips are for competitive tennis players that want to transform their mental game and take it to another level.
So, if you can't or aren't feeling them, there is no need to comment on them.
Oh yeah.
They are free too.
Let's get into them.
1). Your emotional response in a match will always transfer control to your opponent.
During a match.
"Your opponent is always trying to read your emotional reactions after points".
So.
Never give them anything to work with.
Remain in the Mushin Mindset and focus on the next point.
2). Your words have power.
Every word you say during a match is important.
Because it will have an energetic influence on your play.
You should never say anything about your tennis or mental game, that you don't want to become true!!
This is really the key to playing the mental game like a warrior.
Speak powerfully at all the times on the court.
3). Win the point in your mind before you play it.
Now, of course.
You won't be able to do it all the time.
But here is the trick.
The more you do it before points, the better you will get at doing it and the more you will start winning those points.
It's the "Law Of Practice".
You become what you PRACTICE.
Let me share a story with you guys.
I had a junior in Kobe, who wouldn't do this at first(He thought it was impossible), but then he started doing it after a month and kept doing it for a month.
The result.
He started winning more points and couldn't understand why.
Here is why.....
All tennis players will perform up to the self-image that they have of themselves.
Because that is the mental law!!
Practice these tips until you master them.
You should be able to make that mental leap in 3 months!!
