I started practicing table tennis when I was eight years old. It was in the early 199s, and my coach was my uncle. After he graduated from Sport University, he became a PE teacher in our school and taught a group of us to play table tennis in the evening. At that time, children were not so spoiled as they are now, and parents would not go to the teacher to fight because the coach beat and scolded the students. Therefore, we were beaten a lot since childhood. Many people couldn't hold on, so they gave up. As a result, the six of us held on and won the title of second-class table tennis players.

at that time, I remember my second uncle often said: serve and attack. This is a popular style of play in the 8' s and 9' s, which means that you will attack the second board after serving, the so-called first three boards! Therefore, we often train to get ready to attack sideways immediately after serving. There is another sentence: when rubbing the ball, pay attention to the fact that the other side used 5 points of force to serve the backspin, and you should use at least 5 points of force to rub it back. At that time, these two sentences were words of wisdom.

Later, my younger brother (the son of my second uncle) took part in the training of China Table Tennis Club when he grew up. After two years, he found that his skills had greatly increased. It was more difficult to win him slowly, and he could never win again.

After my son's training, my second uncle said a sentence that I still remember vividly: It seems that my skills were out of date at that time, and now it's to serve for defense, and whoever doesn't make mistakes will win. Rubbing the ball is not as wrong as before, but the feeling of half rubbing and half holding. No matter whether you turn 5 minutes or 1 minutes, I will directly hold it to the net for you to see what you can do!

have you seen it? Times have changed! I didn't understand why Hao Shuai (a native of Tianjin, a member of the China table tennis team) was so good at the game. I trained with him for a short time. In a word, I didn't lose the ball. Look at him playing ball. His speed is not fast, his strength is not great, he doesn't turn so well, but it's not bad. The ball sticks to the racket.

sports are all connected.

Take football as an example. Italian football is the top level in the world, but many players feel that MD, who has been defending, doesn't look so carefree, but the buddies always win. Let's take a look at Holland, the uncrowned king. The attack is fast and well coordinated, but even with poor results, it is always impossible to get out of the line. Why, there are many loopholes in defense and what is the use of attacking the world's number one?

look at basketball again. The Spurs are good at defense. Look at the results. The defensive efficiency of the Spurs ranks first in the league, and the Spurs have won the championship five times. Some experts also commented that the offensive level of European basketball teams is 1 times better than that of NBA. Ten times better. Why can't you beat the NBA? No defense!

in a word, it can be seen that defense is easier to succeed than attack to some extent.

so what is defense? In fact, it is to reduce the chance of making mistakes. There is a saying in table tennis: unnecessary mistakes. Even before people hit you, you made a mistake yourself. The difference between amateur and professional is first reflected here.

does this inspire our work and life?

there is a saying in the 8848 mobile phone advertisement: running fast doesn't necessarily win, but success lies in not stumbling.

words of wisdom! In doing things, we should all uphold this sentence. Confucius said in his old man's house: Don't be angry, don't be angry. This is a gentleman. No, we all need to train ourselves to do it.

exaggeration is related to deliberate practice now. What do you mean, that is, don't make the same mistake again, and then you will find new mistakes in practice, and then don't make them again, and gradually make progress. This prevents us from being on the road of low-level repetition all the time, and we should constantly revise ourselves, iterate and improve constantly.

besides, life is a long-distance race. Don't rush out at once, there is no strength in the back, and running with rhythm and safety can make you run farther and farther on the road of life.
