Zen and the Art of Losing (in Pickleball)

My first two books “Zen and the Art of Pickleball”, Volumes 1 and 2, focused on the mental game of pickleball. How does one stay calm and focused on the court? How does one visualize the perfect shot in every situation? How to make good decisions and communicate better with one’s partner. Forgetting about your mistakes and having more fun on the court.
However, some comments from readers of these books told me that something was missing. Some readers wanted to know how to handle a loss. Thus, the impetus for this book. The Zen of Losing provides a roadmap for those who have difficulty finding the positive aspects of losing.

In fact, losing is a gift that, if used wisely, can help you improve your game much more than winning can. When you win, not much introspection ensues. But when you lose, you wonder what happened. Why did we lose that game? Was it poor shot selection? Was it poor strategy? Poor communication? Many aspects of the game come into greater focus if you do the analysis after a loss.

So this book is for those who want to learn how to turn their losses into gains. This book explores all of the positive outcomes that can be experienced after a loss. I hope you find this book helpful and you can enjoy your losses as much as you enjoy your wins in pickleball.
