I believe the great thing about sport is that there is no limit as to how far you can develop no matter what level or age you are. And I’m not talking about what level of tournaments or club tennis you play, I’m talking about YOU. There is no limit on YOU as to what kind of player you can become if you keep constantly learning and trying. No one knows what you are capable of, including you so I challenge you to find out!
I know sometimes it feels like it takes a lot effort to learn more. You know what I mean, thoughts come in your head ‘it’s too hard’ or ‘I’ll do it later’ and ‘I know all that stuff’ and before you know it your on the court loosing again wishing that you took a bit of time out to ‘read that book’ or ‘watch that tape’.
Here is a way I have found to keep out of lazy habits. When I’m faced with a decision I ask myself this simple question: “If I do this or I don’t do this will I regret it when I’m 80 years old?” The reason this works is because the pain of regret hurts more than the pain of effort (and no one knows that more than an 80 year old who didn’t live the life of their dreams). I would hate to look back on my life at 80 and say ‘i wish i did that and this etc’ you know what I mean?
It’s always up to you – are you going to learn and live a full life or will you take it easy and hope for the best?
