Unless you can find the root of the problem – your problem with persist and you will continue losing. I often ask players why they lost a specific match. They often respond with…
 
“It was a bad match.”
“I was just off.”
“I didn’t practice enough.”
“My opponent was on fire.”

When I ask for specifics, some have no answer, while others somewhat give generalities like…
 
“I missed too many backhands.”
