Techniques for Developing Confidence

great article... and thanks for posting a link back to the article, in this forum thread
only thing(s) that have worked for me, are
* staying in the moment
* focus on specific things i can control

for me, "staying positive" is too vague, and not actionable... and even things like "visualize a great return on break point" are opposite of of staying in the moment/forget about the score. but i guess i can see it working if you're using it as a sorta checkpoint of things like "split, stay low, weight forward on contact, etc..." (eg. specific actionable items that i can control in the moment).

What an awesome and inspiring article. Confidence is a fleeting thing, especially in tennis. These high school kids are lucky to have this coach.
