Hitting too hard and losing control - balls flying out constantly while you wonder why "less is more" is so hard to actually do
Panicking when balls hit the glass - making desperate, off-balance shots instead of calmly playing the rebound like better players do
Standing in the wrong spots - leaving huge gaps your opponents attack over and over while you scramble to cover court
Trying to win every point immediately - going for risky shots that result in error after error instead of building points patiently
Forgetting lessons during matches - knowing what to do in theory but your body just won't cooperate when it matters
Feeling embarrassed and frustrated - dreading games because you know you'll make the same mistakes again and let your partner down
Controlling pace effortlessly - hitting at 60-70% power with precision, watching opponents make mistakes against your consistency
Using the glass confidently - calmly letting balls bounce off the back wall and playing calculated returns that keep you in control
Positioning instinctively - moving to the right spots automatically, covering court efficiently with your partner
Building points strategically - being patient, making smart decisions, and waiting for the right moment to attack
Playing on autopilot - your technique becomes natural, letting you focus on tactics and actually enjoying the game
Feeling confident and capable - looking forward to matches, earning respect from partners, and finally seeing real improvement
