Characters of great Pool Players
The Will to Practice
The Guts to Compete
The Desire to be the Best
These are the characters of great Pool Players!
Practice on a regular basis is sometimes hard to obtain depending on what is going on in your life. I’ve found if I play on a league - I will practice more. Having that commitment to be at the pool room every week is sometimes a hard choice to make. Of course there is always an excuse I could make but why? I love to play pool… So I must have the will to practice…
Competition in league play is great but why stop there. Some of the best competition is playing in a local pool tournament. Yes, there is an entry fee (money well spent) not to mention you may get a chance to play some of the best players out there… You may or may not win your matches but you will learn a lot in the process. Also a friendly money game is good for your focus - you don’t have to play for $1,000 per set.. Sometimes a few dollars a game will do. You must have the Guts to compete.
Desire is a big word in many ways. Do you want to be the best? If so, what are you doing about it? How big is your desire? Great players are like sponges, soaking up every bit of information out there. They study the table, the shots and the players, learning little tips along the way. Most great players also keep a notebook with notes about shots, safety’s and evaluations on the players they’ve played or observed - You may not know where your game is deficient but other players do. Great players know that knowledge is power and they have a desire to be the best. What is your desire?
character is what one is; reputation is what one is thought to be by others
