Today, I want to stay focused on the process. Pierre is having me serve-and-volley on all my first serves. I understand that this can be frustrating, since I am very bad at it. However, if I change my perspective to see that this is an opportunity to improve, and I remember that my goal is not to win, the situation becomes much more positive.

I have an obligation to my parents, my coaches, and my future self to use this day to practice staying process-oriented. I will not let results take me off the high performance route. The results don't matter to me. I am trying to improve at something and that is my focus

My coaching voice will remind me that this is how I can learn to love problems. I will face the challenge and not shy away from it.
