Ping-pong table as a mentoring tool

New Personal Rules:
Lately, I’ve been playing ping-pong with Brent almost everyday and almost anytime we have a spare minute available.  Such a pleasure to have a partner handy at the house.  We utilized the ping-pong table as our ‘mental break’ during a serious study or work or reading or homework or anything else that requires concentration.  As we played, we talked [sometimes trash talked on how we play] and there were times also that I was able to mentor him as a father.  Last night, I came up with the following new ‘personal rules’. 

1. DIN-Do it now; when you have the opportunity, take it.
2. DIR-Do it right; when you are given the chance, do it correctly at all times
3. DIP-Do it precisely; when you execute a task, strike with precision according to plan
4. DIG-Do it gently; when you are filled with pressure/tension, soften your actions
5. DIS-Do it seriously; when the game is on the line, be serious; don’t get distracted
6. DIH-Do it hard [sometimes]; when you are losing/failing, strike hard
7. DIC-Do it consistently; if what you are facing is so difficult, be consistent
8. DID-Do it differently; when an opponent/problem is not going your way, try a different way.

My favorites are #1,2,3. What about you?
