Time for tennis. I'm training a friend of mine to be my partner in the next League. He gives me such a good energy this guy, he's improving a lot too!
When you play doubles, having good chemistry with your partner is essential.
My current partner is very cool guy and slightly better than me for the moment. And this is the issue. For the moment. It's obvious that in 2 months I'll be way better than him.
In order to improve in anything, you need to identify what you want to improve & a plan.
And then you need to start implementing it. And here's the tough thing.
Whenever you try to do this, ie change your serve, you will loose in the start. Big time. So you have to be able to loose, without this hurting your ego.
He can't do that, he doesn't try new things, in 2 months from he'll be playing the same game. Not me.
This I'm trying to show to my future partner: Not to fear the defeat. In order to can implement the plan.
