高潮與低谷：我的乒乓心路歷程 | 乒乓物语系列 Highs and Lows: My Ups and Downs in Ping Pong | Ping Pong Stories Series

：

打球多年，最讓我難忘的，往往不是某一次完美的扣殺，而是那些起起伏伏的時刻──高潮與低谷交錯，像人生的縮影。

我曾有一段時間打得順風順水，連勝幾場，感覺自己像飄在雲端。每一次擊球都信心滿滿，甚至會默默對自己笑：今天狀態真好。那種無所畏懼的感覺，會推著你更勇敢去嘗試難度更高的動作，也讓練習變得充滿期待。

但好景不常，運動就是這樣：總會有碰到瓶頸、連續失利的時候。那時候你會懷疑自己，懷疑訓練的方法，甚至懷疑自己是否還適合繼續。記得有一次比賽，連續出現相同的失誤，心態開始變得急躁，動作也跟著亂了。那段日子，我會把球拍放下，坐在場邊想很多：要不要改變打法？要不要找教練？還是該暫時放慢腳步？

重要的是，我慢慢學會接受低谷，並從中找回自己。做法很簡單：回到基本動作、一點一滴修正；放下對結果的執著，重建打球的樂趣；向球友請教，從別人的經驗中汲取靈感。漸漸地，困難被一個個化解，信心也慢慢回來。

高潮與低谷教會我的，是耐心與韌性。勝利讓人欣喜，失敗則是最好的老師。若沒有那些挫折，或許我不會那麼懂得珍惜每一次穩穩的擊球，也不會在遇到逆境時保持冷靜。

這就是乒乓的魅力：它讓你體會人生的起伏，並在每一次揮拍中，慢慢累積成熟與堅持。

 Highs and Lows: My Ups and Downs in Ping Pong | Ping Pong Stories Series

After years of playing, what I remember most aren’t always the perfect smashes, but the ebb and flow—the highs and lows that mirror life itself.

There have been stretches when everything clicked: several wins in a row, a confident smile each time I struck the ball. Riding that momentum, I dared to try tougher shots and looked forward to practice every day. That feeling of being “in the zone” is intoxicating.

But sports aren’t a one-way climb. I’ve also hit slumps—times when losses piled up and doubts crept in. I remember a match where the same mistake kept repeating, and that frustration made my whole game collapse. I’d sit on the sideline wondering: should I change my style? Should I see a coach? Or should I simply slow down and regroup?

What mattered most was learning to accept the low points and work through them. My approach was straightforward: return to basics and fix the fundamentals, let go of obsession with outcomes, and rediscover the joy of playing. I asked fellow players for tips and borrowed small ideas from their routines. Little by little, the slump eased and confidence returned.

The highs and lows taught me patience and grit. Victories are exhilarating, but failures are often the best teachers. Without the setbacks, I wouldn’t appreciate a clean, steady rally as much, nor would I have learned how to stay calm when things go wrong.

That’s the beauty of table tennis: it lets you feel life’s ups and downs and, with every stroke, builds resilience and quiet strength.
