Key Habit of a Highly Effective Pickleball Player
We all have a conscience and we know what ’ s right and wrong when it comes to emotional displays on the pickleball court . By James Hackenberg
We ’ ve all heard it before , right ? Probably
from our parents , or maybe it ’ s something we said to our children . I ’ m writing this article in hopes that someday I can “ Do what I say ” or “ Walk the talk .” In reading this article , maybe you can identify with my situation and make a commitment to change a behavior on the pickleball court .
A little background … I ’ ve always been a hothead , especially when it came to my performance as an athlete . I can ’ t stand personal failure . I often base my self-worth on performance , not only in sports , but in all aspects of my life . I ’ m not proud of it , but in high school while on the tennis team , I made John McEnroe look like a choirboy . Tennis racquets were made of wood back then and they broke very easily .
