Publisher's Synopsis
Sweet Spot Tennis provides a handful of easy, fun tips that will help you get better at the game of tennis ... and the game of life, too! It focuses on playing from the sweet spots inside ourselves, specifically on balancing masculine and feminine energy (yang and yin), on balancing structure and energy (li and chi), and on not getting stuck in the past ("that shot was terrible!") or the future ("I wonder if their shot will go in") ... in other words, in playing from "the Now."
This short guide is, among other things, a recipe for cracking the Zone, because one is in the Zone when one is fully inhabiting the Now. From the ebook: "Tennis is a game of timing, and when we find our way to the Now, our timing becomes exquisite. When we find the sweet spot of the Now, we lose our two left feet and we start dancing with everything. And that, my friends, is the Zone." Sweet Spot Tennis offers seven fun games (or 'experiments') that will help you find your center both on the court and off. Seen more broadly, it offers two unique benefits. First, it points us toward a fresh and useful understanding of the game that is basically architectural. Specifically, it proposes, first, that the foundation is timing; second, that everything flows from that; and third, that the house atop the foundation is built, story by story (2.0 to 3.0 to 4.0 and so on), by getting more skilled at balancing polarities, in other words, by getting better at playing from the sweet spots inside ourselves.
