Learn How to Build Your Confidence!
In table tennis, try your best to build an early lead in points, try your best to win the first game, try your best to win the match 3-0.
One of my students recently lost to a player who had an amazing forehand and a terrible backhand. This opponent’s forehand was at least 1900-level and his backhand was around 800-1000 level. After losing, I asked my student why he played so many balls to the forehand. He responded by saying, “Well, I didn’t want my opponent to know that I knew his weak point.” What a terrible way to lose a match.
