Smash. I unexpectedly change the pace and shoot the Ping-Pong ball to the right hand corner of my opponent's court.
Within seconds, my mind flashes from guessing my opponent's technics as soon as the ball is tossed to the mid-air to deciding responsive strategies the moment the ball hits my racket. Quick in mind, I think and tackle problems the same way as I play Ping-Pong-quickly and incisively elicit the essence from complex details. Quick on feet, I respond accordingly under changing situations, just as I move flexibly from one spot of the court to another after judging the direction that the ball heads to.
Although externally intense and aggressive, Ping-Pong playing requires a peaceful mind. The game is an alternation of wins and loses, and I came from the stage of being easily susceptible to fluctuations to coolly analyzing the result. Remaining calm, I recover from thrill or depression, and therefore keep my good performance or modify my tactics timely. Through learning from mistakes during grasps of breaks in Ping-Pong games, I treasure rather than lament at failures because they are bases for improvements.
Applause bursts out for my sudden and perfect smash. Simply wiping down the sweat on my forehead, I focus back on the spinning Ping-Pong ball, which has been instilling me with acuteness and calmness during the past eight years.
