How Top Tennis Players Use Positive Thinking Between Points

There was a study done in Florida at a tennis academy, and what they looked at was what is the difference between those tennis players that are top five in the world versus those that are top 25?

Was it their diet? No. Was it their exercise? No.

Was it when they started playing the game? No.

Was it their coaching? No. What they actually found was this.

The difference between the top five ranked people in the world and the others in the top 25 was their thinking.

In the 10 to 15 seconds after a point had been scored in tennis, those athletes that thought positive things, things such as, "I love this game. There's nowhere else I'd rather be.

I may have not got that shot, but I'm gonna get the next one.

Watch this."

Those athletes that thought positive, it slowed down their heart rate, slowed down their breathing rate, and across the entire competition, they were conserving a lot of energy.

They were feeling better about themselves, and thus, across an entire tennis match.

In the end, they were victorious.
