Three Reasons, Why Novak Djokovic is the best tennis player of 2011


In this blog we all will see how Self-confidence can change whole point of view about your life.


2. Self-confidence


 
Self-confidence is a positive attitude about oneself and about the surrounding situations. Self-confident attitudes are also realistic. A person who has self-confidence is generally upbeat about getting what they want, within reason. People with self-confidence also generally feel in control of their lives, and when their situations fall short of expectations, they continue to accept themselves and to have a positive outlook.


A committed tennis player like Novak Djokovic cannot be defeated at the moment. Even when he is behind the Serb manages to obtain one victory after another. If you watch professional tennis, you also know that the game's very best players are just as vulnerable to the self-confidence trap as anyone on your local high-school team. That truth was on full display in Saturday's thrilling U.S. Open men's semifinal between Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic.

During the first two sets, Federer looked like he had stepped into a time machine and set the dial back to 2006, back when he stood, unrivaled, atop the tennis landscape. His footwork was nimble. His one-handed backhand exploded crisply off his racket. He played with the grace and flair that tennis aesthetes have so fetishized over the last decade, and which nobody on tour can come close to matching. (Nadal and Djokovic are both great players, but not great stylists.) Federer played the aggressor to Djokovic -- no easy feat, given that the Serb has put together one of the greatest years in tennis history (currently 60-2 with two Grand Slam titles to his name).

How he is achieving this:

Novak Djokovic is emphasizing on his strengths by focusing on goal to do best in his game. Now he is taking more risk with shots. After successfully completing new endeavours that involve risk, you begin to feel confidence about the future. He is also practicing more on his weaknesses.

Practice self-evaluations of his performances. These self-evaluations should include the aspects of his performance that he did well and other aspects that could be improved upon. This helps him to rely less on the opinions of others, which may dwell on the negative. It empowers him while taking power away from others.

He is continuing to recognizing the self-defeating thought patterns as they reappear and dismiss them. These include "all or nothing" expectations whereby if an outcome isn't perfect, it is seen as a failure. This can be seen as an unrealistic expectation. Thoughts that magnify negative aspects of yourself or your performance should also be discarded.



How we all can get this in our life.

The basis for self-confidence begins with parents who plan accepting attitudes toward their children, which means that adults may have to work harder to develop self-confidence if they are starting out with negative parental influences. Secondly they can develop this by Joining groups, clubs or organizations that provide positive support among their members.
