Pickleball, in its essence, is a zero-sum activity because it's built around the concept that there's going to be one winner and one loser. In a zero-sum world, our opponent's victory is our loss. Their positive is our negative. But it doesn't have to be that way. Think about your losses as simply learning opportunities so now you have a positive a…

In this episode we're going to re-up one of our most popular and best episode. How do we customize the journey best for ourselves?

We also talk about the concept of agency in outballs that applies to everything yo…

You can be successful as a pickleball player with different types of approaches, both hard and soft game strategies, and being a proponent of the soft game, doesn't mean that I'm an opponent of the hard game. Most pros have both a good soft game and a good hard game, because they'll mix the two depending on what's working in that moment and their o…

Sometimes we'll play in situations in open plays where there's really no gathering of levels. So it's basically a free-for-all. How do you keep the game fun? How do you keep playing productively with players who you've known for a long time when you, or they, get to different levels of the game? This is a common question or situation we encounter a…

Let's talk about ratings, one of those double-edged swords that really don't say anything about how you play. While there's definitely a place for ratings in our sport, the only reason you need the rating is if it's consistent with what you want. Always ask yourself; 1) Why do I need the rating? 2) What's the rating doing for me and what I want wit…

As a pickleball player, I want to feel good and play without doing that at the expense of my opponent. Taking advantage of my opponent and paying attention to my opponent's negative feelings to expand my confidence should not be something to look forward to or to work towards. The idea that our tank of confidence will be filled by our opponent's mi…

Good pickleball, and the best pickleball you'll ever play, is built upon a foundation of sound FUNDAMENTALS. I was reminded of the 'imagined' bad word, fundamentals, during a pro level match that I was watching because as pickleball players we often shy away from that word and dismiss it as only applicable for beginners. The truth is, executing eve…

In this episode we talk about three subjects; assigning fault, increasing our evolutionary empathy and staying focused. I got to play in a mixed group recently where I was paired with Dakota, a younger player, both in terms of her time in pickleball and also just a younger person. It was a tight match and we ended up on the losing end of it. I comp…

Have you've been dreading doing something or having a conversation for a long time? The pool is an interesting way of thinking about it where you're standing by the side of the pool trying to decide, do I get in the pool? Do I not get in the pool? One way to deal with it is to just dive into the pool. Take the plunge into the pool- quicker than 20 …

In this special episode of Pickleball Therapy we talk with the incomparable Sara Weiss about her pickleball journey and the idea of being an animal on the court. We also talk about how she balances between pickleball and life coaching and how that led Sarah to this amazing place where she's now playing pro-qualifiers. It's interesting to learn abou…

The idea of strategic fluidity (wanting to be adapt to everything) and pickleball is a fine concept that sounds great in theory. But how does that work in practice when it comes to pickleball rules and what rules to apply or not to apply? Having an idea of the rules or guidelines can help you determine the best shot in any given situation, as oppos…

There is another side to your game – and there’s plenty to be proud of I want you to list all the things you do not do well as a pickleball player – or that you could do better. Things that frustrate you or that you “cannot just get.” Actually, hold on for a moment before you start writing your list and hear me out. The moment you read the above wo…

As we move forward, we will be in a different place every time. Ask yourself, am I the same player I was an year ago? When you're working on a part of your game that you're trying to get better at, you're trying to get closer to the solution to the problem so you need to engage in iterations. It's processing it again and again and repeating it to h…

Game plan is super valuable because it's human nature to make errors. The better that you get at the big picture view of pickleball and your relationship with sport, the better you understand the perspective and the less likely you are to tip over into a downward spiral. Mental work will help you play better and have more fun. For instance, try and…

Pickleball is beautiful, amazing and with loads of benefits. The biggest of them all being you'll be a happier human being, just from playing pickleball. But sometimes we get lost or lose perspective of the game. The game that you choose to play helps you frame how you deal with adversity when you're playing. Also how do you stop being a 12-year-ol…

I recently got into the Wordle craze (a bit late I know). Got me to thinking though – why do we like games like Wordle, Crosswords, Sudoku, etc.? And does this same thought process apply to pickleball? Start here: why do we play a game like Wordle? Is it because of the game’s solution? The solution, itself, is what we are after. Or is it because of…

We all get advice – YouTube, friendly local player, partner. What do we do with it? Step 1: Remember that you have agency over your pickleball journey. This means that you get to decide whether to take the tip or say “get that outta here” (note – you can say it in your mind). Here’s the thing: 45% of the advice you hear out there is plain wrong. An…

To be a complete pickleball player you need a third shot drop. Seems simple enough but, as with many things in life, once you scratch at it a little you find out that it is not quite that simple. Before players start losing their mind reading the next words, let me make this one thing clear: in a hypothetical, what do you need to play a complete pi…

We are friends. Playing a pickleball game. One of us will win and one of us will lose. That is just the way of things. Imagine a world where you went into the game like this: 1. I know that no matter what, either my team or my friends opposite me on the court will be able to celebrate the win. 2. I also know that no matter what, the other one of us…

I was reminded of an important concept speaking to one of our team members who is a volleyball player converted to pickleball. The conversation went something like this (group setting): Me: “Hard to lob Emily as she can get up in the air.” Emily: “Yeah and I even like to jump when I do not have to.” Me: “I’ve seen it. Ball can be at Emily’s head he…

Your Relationship with Pickleball Much of the information available about pickleball has to do with the details: How do I hit a certain shot? What is the latest paddle thing going on? What is the rule about [__________]? There are many fewer resources that tackle our relationship with pickleball. The term “relationship” is one we use very intention…

Is losing 3-11 not fun for you? It might be - depending on how you look at it PLUS Too old or unskilled to play pickleball? You just got done playing 6 games, never scoring more than 3 points in a game. I try to share come encouragement by saying to you “It’s not the end of the world.” You agree but then add “But it’s less fun.” Is it less fun? Let…

In this triple episode we address three different areas; things in the PPA that merits some conversation, hardwiring concept and, in the RIFF, we talk about putting your finger on the paddle. 1. On the PPA experience, I was watching two matches and I observed how flaws in the mental game spill over into your physical performance, shot making, execu…

I had a chance to read this new book on the market, The Pickleball Mindset, that's written by my fellow senior professional, pickleball player, Dayne Gingrich, and his co-author, Jill Martin. One really powerful concept that Dayne and Jill address is to stop "chasing the win" and find your purpose. If you listen to this podcast you know we are big …

The journey to be a more well-rounded player can be filled with distractions that pull you in different directions, that are not as productive as others, the Erne being a good example. When you watch the Erne in action in pro matches, you'll find that it's of very limited strategic value. What's an Erne? In this episode I explain to you what that i…

There's a baseline appropriate for us based on where we are right now. Why? Because the baseline is supposed to keep us in reality. It's meant to ground us in the modality of our situation.

There are serious losses that we encounter that's part of being alive. If your favorite team did not win a contest, it's not an upset and does not mean that anybody suffered a loss. It just means that the contest ended with one team having more points, or other defining measurement of that sport, than the other team. That's why in this week's episo…

Players often struggle to recognize what occurred in the rallies they played. It’s through recognition that we can make adjustments as we move forward in our play.

Our March Win-More Series got me to thinking about…winning. We talk about it a lot because it takes up a lot of our mental bandwidth. Winning is fine, and it is A-OK to want more of it.
