Reframe Your Frustration: Ditch the Struggle by Embracing the Process

This week we dive deeper into a recent episode by Tony on a very powerful perspective that had me reflect on my journey about learning. What I discovered about the reality of the struggle during practice is that, first of all, it's unavoidable. The absolute only way to master a skill to proficiency is through repetition where you will inevitably face both success and failure, no shortcuts.Now practice is about finding joy in the process and being fully present in that moment. There is just something so satisfying about the rhythm of drilling, practicing and the repetition of hitting a pickleball. What helps me to stay grounded a majority of the time is a really simple tool that I use after every practice, or after playing a session, called 3, 2, 1;👉 Writing down three things that I did well that day that do not have to be result-based. 👉 Taking on an awareness about myself on the two things I learned about myself to bring back the things I can control. It can be as simple as noticing that I play better when I take a deep breath before serving. 👉 Then one is one thing that I'm going to do with that information in the next 24 hours. This exercise is a way to shift the focus back onto the process and away from the results, and ultimately, from where I feel the struggle and the frustration. Check out the Better Pickleball Academy; https://betterpickleball.com/academy/Pickleball Mastery.
