    I tend to think about badminton before I go to sleep. It helps me clear my mind and relax.

    I feel at ease when I'm on the court, either just spectating or playing. Badminton is my release.

    I think of badminton every second of every day.:eek:
    Pretty sad:crying:, but it has its advantages.:cool:
    Although I started playing badminton around 6 months ago, many people that don't know that fact think I've been playing for years.:confused:
    I'm not saying it to brag. (Maybe a little):D
    The point is, to improve as fast as possible in anything in life, one must have tunnel vision and think nothing else but their goal.:eek:
    My goal is to get good enough to be able to play with the top players of my club. We mostly play doubles in my club.
    If it was singles, I'd get owned.:crying:

    To improve, we nerd to practice, not just thinking of it

    .
    hellopanda3 ... Are you saying that to improve as fast as possible, we need to think of Badminton as often as we can? Have you heard of people saying "Sometimes I tell my body to do this/that, but my body just doesn't obey"? :p:p:p

    No, this is not meant to make fun of you. What I am saying is; To improve, we nerd to practice, not just thinking of it. However, running through our minds before what we are intending to do/practice actually do help us to be more prepared for it.

    :):):)

    I agree with you.
    Of course we need to practice.
    One can't expect to get better by just thinking.
    Like you said, "Running through our minds before what we are intending to do/practice actually do help us to be more prepared for it."
    I'm all for practicing a lot.
    I play around 17 hours per week.

    What does it say about badminton fixation when you can't help thinking about each derelict office building or warehouse you pass by: "I wonder if that could be converted to a badminton hall?":rolleyes:

    LOL. When I pass by office buildings or warehouse, I think "Is this a new badminton place that I don't know about?":) since many badminton halls sprang up in the bay area in the past few years.
