Coach Marcin Bieniek, founder of Enjoy Tennis Blog, explains the importance of planning a long-term strategy for your tennis career.
Tennis career can last 20, 30 or even more years, therefore, you should have long-term benefits in mind while performing day-to-day activities. Unfortunately, many players do the opposite, as they consciously (or unconsciously) incorporate actions based just on short-term benefits.
Balancing long-term and short-term goals
Work hard, give 100% every time you practice, play all important tournaments, use every opportunity to get experience — all these examples seem like the necessary requirements to improve your game and have a chance to get to the next level.
