What is your thought process when you miss a shot?
Is it negative??? Especially those shots YOU know you should of made!
Also, You make the shot and you screw up the shape on the next shot.
(this is about the same as missing the shot)

Did I overcut/undercut?
Did I hit it too hard/too soft?

I think some lose a game they should of won, because they get too
negative on the last shot they should of made or shape after the last shot.

Trying to maintain positive thinking after a missed shot/shape is very
important & You may still win that game.

Each time at the table you need to clear the mind of the past.

Same thing happens when I make a great shot!!!



any input?

Agreed. The Inner Game of Tennis talks A LOT about this fact. Take every miss etc as a learning opportunity, analyze it from the standpoint of what you can do the next time to have a positive outcome.
