Act like a Pro

The one thing you can do to help you get a tennis scholarship and impress the coaches, is act like a PRO. Try to carry yourself in a professional manner, let everything you do show to other people that you take PRIDE in playing tennis. The key thing here is not settle for being average, go beyond it and expect great things from yourself. This helps build up your SELF-IMAGE and gives you the confidence to set goals and achieve them, after you reach your goal set even higher ones. The thing about goals is you can’t set them too low, because you want to feel as if you are stretching yourself with every goal. Also act like a pro on the court, by giving all out effort and treating your opponent with respect, study how some of the pros you like act and adopt and adapt it to your style of play, never try to be like them, just learn and study from watching them. Action tip-take control over your EMOTION today and be aware of how you are in control of them during a match or practice, breath deeply and make sure you are recovering after every point, I find this to be the best way to stay BALANCE. The saying is true, “to play like a pro,you have to act like a pro”!
