How to overcome lack of motivation!

Hi Andy,

Everybody has been there.

If you are getting negative images of the strokes, stop hitting for a while or watch some better players hitting.  This will reinforce the better images.

A  lot of the game is in the head.  Training is a good time to start to reinforce good routines.  By developing a good routine between pants and between games you are going to be able to minimise those negative thoughts that go through.  Occupy the mind with other things and it won't have time to wander to those negative places.  This allows the body to do what it knows how to do already.  It doesn't forget how to play a stroke.  That is just us getting in the way of ourselves.

After one good session, motivate will improve again.  The best players are the best players because they train through these types of things.  As I said at the start everyone has been there, believe it not, even Ma Long.
