A Word about This and That

The realization that mental toughness starts with everyday attitude sank in over the last few days.  I've been taking in negativism everyday without being conscious of it.  NPR and news are the two biggest sources of negativism.  I vow to cut them out of my life.

To pump in positive energy, I vow to cut down the melancholy tunes and start listening to cheerful high energy songs, Deelite anyone?

After 4 years of learning and playing squash I finally felt what a proper forehand is like.  The shoulder blade feel compressed and I can see the racquet come across my face on the follow through.  When I see the racquet and feel the shoulder blade, that's when I know the racquet face is open and I am keeping still through the swing.  The ball resonates with a firm 'thud', finally satisfaction!
