Tennis Under The Blue Sky Anyone? 🎾 Here Are My Today's 90 Seconds of Happiness 🙃

Marlene@surfermarly (75)2663d

The player of the inner game comes to value the art of relaxed concentration above all other skills; the secret to winning any game lies in not trying too hard. - Timothy Gallway

That's exactly what we practiced during today's tennis session.

I was supposed to think about an imaginary net right in front of me, even when I was playing from the baseline. Suprisingly that simple trick helped me to improve my swing considerably.

Tennis is mostly mental.

If you get to control your thoughts, you'll be in control of your game.

Since I'm one of these head persons, at times my brain even stands in the way to success. Whenever I manage to switch it off and play in confidence-mode, I'm on the winning side.

But enough talking, here are my today's 90 seconds of happiness in pictures. Enjoy!

Hope your Tuesday is as sweaty and joyful as mine 🙃🙃😃:-)

Much love, Marley -

    Your game looks quite professional except the serve. I am not a die hard fan of tennis but I do watch some games often and I feel tennis is hardest sport to master. I have also heard people tell it is quite difficult to play and not as easy as it seems to be. Is it true?

  • @roger5120(73)· 2663d

    That's wonderful that you are able to play the game of tennis. Not everyone can play it. But I'm sure one must have passion to do what they love to do best and that discipline of mine, body, and soul is all part of it. Thanks for sharing your love of tennis.

  • @brettcalloway(58)· 2663d

    Overall, pretty good form! Keep working on that serve! 🎾

  • @vangie(57)· 2663d

    Great video. And must be fun to be able to move around that much rather than stucked behind the table. I have not got the chance to try tennis.

  • @shaidon(71)· 2663d

    Firstly, thank you for posting the competion and supporting the #Seven77 movement.

    Yes, most things are mental game. Visualisation is really important because it helps to focus the mnd on what you want to happen.

    @surfermarly, Yes, if we control our thoughts then definitely we can control our life effectively. And one point i really liked and that is, the secret is hiding in not tyring too hard, sometimes we push so hard that we actually pushing us into pain and our thinking process drains.

    So let's relax and let it flow. And definitely when we stay in relaxed state we can achieve more productive results. Stay blessed.

    How funny I should see this now, a few hours after reminiscing on the phone with my mother about our tennis playing days! The topic only came up because my brother dropped by to visit her on Mother's Day (after not seeing her for a number of years...long messy story), and told her that he and his new wife now play on a regular basis. He was a football player & body builder in his younger days, and used to tell us that tennis wasn't really a sport. 😜

    Enough of my meander down memory lane - thanks for sharing that gloriously sunny & blue skied bit of happiness! Just what I needed to see on this gloomy, rainy Tuesday here in New Hampshire. In fact, I think I might've even burned a calorie or two just from smiling, so extra thanks for the vicarious exercise... 😉 😂

    Oh, and I think, "If you get to control your thoughts, you'll be in control of your game" would make a wicked awesomesauce bumper sticker, because that rings true, no matter what the game is. Especially the game of life (and no, not the board game...LOL).

  • @flaxz(75)· 2663d

    You nailed it @surfermarly, and you got a good workout as a bonus.

    Yes. This is another form of creativity in art. Swinging your arms in tennis represents a motion in art that describes the pattern and shape of the body at the very time you make each move playing back the ball. You must have really had a nice touch under the bluesky playing the Tennis.....

    Nice moves

    Hello @surfermarly, what a joy that you can start a Tuesday with full concentrated exercises, I congratulate you, mine starts at 5 am, to prepare breakfast for my daughter who goes to school, I enjoy doing it, then I eat at the bus stop that takes her to school, then to run to prepare myself to go to work, the exercise touches me in the afternoon that I take my son to karate classes and while he is there I take advantage of walking and let my thoughts fly, thank you for sharing and happiness always.

    I love your swift move and fast learning ability @surfermarly.

    If you get to control your thoughts, you'll be in control of your game.

    Much happiness!

    Great video! enjoyed the watch. not much of a tennis fan, but as a starting vlogger, i am appreciating the edits, music mix and other tech tricks more and more. Your vids score high in each of these categories. Perhaps the only element missing in this video is the personal touch. Who is this person learning to play tennis? Did she like it? finishing the video off with a remark (reflecting your style, content etc) would give it a personal touch and a brand (ugh, hate the word).) I am not meaning to be harsh here (believe me, i am not qualified to criticise), just my two cents based on impressions. (Upvoted!!)

    Best wishes, your 11,111th follower ;)

  • @gikitiki(62)· 2663d

    The only thing you need to improve on your serve is your grunt.

    When you watch professional tennis, every serve involves a guttural grunt.

    If you master the grunt, you master the serve. :-P
