Being Present

Lessons from the NET 🎾

Tennis is a microcosm of life.

Every time you get on the court it's time to release expectation - and just BE with the game. All of the preparation was done before the match - the healthy eating, exercising, drilling, mental training and practice matches were all leading up to this sweet moment of being "in the zone" and present with the ball.

And win or lose there is always something to learn - and that information can be learned to improve the next match.

I feel so lucky to have found this elegant sport - it opened up a whole new challenge and life for me.

The sound of the can of balls opening, the feeling of a great serve or getting an overhead to smash can't compare to anything else. Okay - well maybe there IS ONE other thing just as fun! 😂
