Letter at a tennis player

Dear Tennis Player,

  • Don’t insult yourself when you make mistakes and don’t cheer against yourself.
  • Support yourself in a positive way always, even when the ball goes out or you are under.
  • Don’t yell at yourself; you will play worse.
  • Play joyfully, freely and make the choices you want to make.
  • Don’t criticize how others play just to imply that you understand tennis.
  • Support your less good friends in the Circle, let them feel your support.
  • Remember that too much tension is harmful; you are not playing the Wimbledon final.
  • Have fun, use humor to reduce the fear of making a bad impression.
  • At the end of the match, don’t tell yourself that you are deeply disappointed and will stop playing.
  • Accept defeats, even the ones that sting the most.
  • Don’t always blame the racket, the weather, bad luck.
  • Remember that it is your mind that commands technique and tactics and not viceversa.
  • Do not show by your behavior disrespect for others, whether teammates or opponents.
  • Show them respect in your every behavior on the field.
  • It is never others who make you wrong.
  • It is you who have not been able to respond to a shot or have not adapted to that type of play.
  • Don’t make the same mistake over and over, don’t insist on a shot that doesn’t fit.
  • When you make a mistake do something different and change the way you play.
  • Don’t play to close games as quickly as possible.
  • Take your time to build the point and reason.
