The idea behind the game was to show what computers could accomplish. From arcade games to console games, to PC games, to early mobile games, and even to the recent tennis-themed slots, there have been plenty of games throughout history for tennis lovers to enjoy.
Seeing as its popularity has withstood time, CogniFit decided to make a melodic tennis game, that not only took the main aspects of tennis, such as aim but also added auditory cues to keep the user entertained while training their cognitive skills. Repeatedly playing and consistently training games like CogniFit's Melodic Tennis stimulates a specific neural activation pattern which helps neural circuits reorganize and recover weakened or damaged cognitive functions.
Consistently stimulating our skills can help create new synapses, and help neural circuits reorganize and improve cognitive functions. The Melodic Tennis game seeks to stimulate skills related to auditory perception and recognition. Our brain tends to save resources by eliminating unused connections. If a cognitive skill is not normally used, the brain does not provide resources for that neuronal activation pattern, so it becomes weaker and weaker.
If we do not train that cognitive function, we become less efficient in our day-to-day activities. In a clinical setting, the CogniFit results when interpreted by a qualified healthcare provider , may be used as an in determining whether further cognitive evaluation is needed.
CogniFit does not offer any medical diagnosis or treatment of any medical disease or condition. CogniFit products may also be used for research purposes for any range of cognitive related assessments.
If used for research purposes, all use of the product must be in compliance with appropriate human subjects' procedures as they exist within the researchers' institution and will be the researcher's obligation.

Thank you so much. No matter ow positive you try to be, are you unable to shake the doubt that rushes into your head when you size up your competition? Have you labeled yourself as a loser, poor closer, or mediocre athlete and these labels keep you stuck in a rut of self-pity and indecision?

You want to have high percentage offense. You want to attack with your consistency. You want to attack with your mind. You want to have an offense that you can rely upon that will win you matches and win your points assuredly.
When you are defending you are doing so with a purpose. Some people say that grinding it out is boring. There are flashy shots that some players hit but those flashy shots over time would be extinguished with a tried-and-true, solid strategy. Whereas a boa constrictor carefully and methodically constricts their prey from breathing and, over time, wins.
You want to have high percentage plays to close out games and points rather than the quick winner or unforced error. Tom Brady does it when quarterbacking for the New England Patriots. He goes for 2-point conversions only when absolutely necessary, like the two of them in Super Bowl LI. You want to quietly produce a winning game plan. Play with patience. Play with purpose. Play like a boa constrictor not a rattlesnake , and you will win more often.
And nothing against rattlesnakes. Tim Notke , high school basketball coach When you have expectations, you are setting yourself up for disappointment. Ryan Reynolds , actor. Mike White , American writer. Trade expectations for appreciations and the world changes instantly. Tony Robbins , American author, philanthropist and life coach. Success is giving percent of your effort, body, mind, and soul to the struggle.
Going into any competition or contest, you should have zero expectations of the outcome because the outcome is not fully controllable by you. The author thought leader, and marketing guru, Seth Godin, asks his audience to raise their hands as high as they can. Then he asks them to raise them even higher, which they are able to do. Focusing on the controllable of the effort and reducing your expectations of the outcome to nothing will reduce frustration.
Frustration is caused by the disparity of your expectation level and your level of performance. The difference is frustration. Whereas, if your performance level is higher than your expectation level, then you have confidence. On the contrary, you shift your focus to something that you can control, which is your effort. Now some would say that you need expectations in order to have achievement. I suggest that these are goals and they represent an example of the difference between goals and expectations.
Goal setting happens before competition not during it. Athletes would have goals set prior to the contest yet focus on the elements that they can control during the competition.
Have a goal that you will win; having the belief that you will win and having the expectation that you will win are different things. You should have expectations of your standards, practice level, or work ethic but not of the outcome.
Effort is a controllable just like attitude, preparedness, sportsmanship, and teamwork. These are controllables. If you focus on the controllables, like effort, and you are aware that if your expectations are too high, you could have disappointment, you will have the right mindset for competition.
A good way to evaluate whether you have this equation right is how you feel after a win. If you feel relieved that you won, then that indicates that you had expectations going into that match. Mindset Moment 27 The irony about our world record in was that I was the most nervous after we set the record. While we were still rallying, the goal of mine was not to make a mistake.
I let the ball pass on purpose at one-minute past midnight, so that we would end up with the identical number of strokes, since I started with the serve. Once we set the record, and simply adding to the record total, I got very nervous for a moment because I had raised my expectations.
I had to lower my expectations and accept whatever the outcome would be to shake off my nerves. If a mistake happened, not too bad, we had already captured the world record and raised money for charity. If you constantly check yourself and your level of awareness of your expectations to make sure that your expectations are 0, you will reduce frustration and increase your chance of success. Minimize frustration, maximize success, by using the 0 : Rule. Purpose Point 27 Prioritize the process not the result.
Remove the expectation to live in peace and find your joy. If you replace expectations with gratitude, then you will not sweat the small stuff and think about others before yourself. Understanding the place of expectation will help you find joy and remove judgment. Rather than judge your life, live it! I always welcome feedback at angelo tennacity.
Goal setting helps you accomplish tasks. Stretch goal setting helps you accomplish dreams. Angelo A. From the outside, it looks like a great idea to improve employee efficiency or effectiveness. Over time, however, in analyzing the results of this goal-setting method, some found that it stifled creativity. People selected goals that they knew that they could accomplish.
Ultimately, the greater the size of your dream the more imperative it is to have stretch goals and not just goals. My brother and I developed a new acronym after setting our first world record. G for Grand. Your dream needs to be a large stretch goal. It should keep you up at night and get you up in the morning. Create a dream board of pictures, quotes, and your heroes that you have above your bed so you are reminded of your dream when you go to sleep so you can dream about it and when you wake up you start taking action toward your dream.
O is for Optimistic. You need to have and maintain self-belief. If you believe in yourself and surround yourself with a team of supporters, anything is possible. Self-belief will change the seemingly impossible to possible. A is for Accountable. Find an accountability partner. We try much harder to please others than please ourselves.
Same holds true for letting others down versus ourselves. L is Long term stretch goals. These usually span 3 to 5 years.
These can almost seem like small dreams coming true as you reach them. S is for Short term stretch goals. If you create smaller stretch goals your ladder will line up with your dream rather than fall short of your dream if you just used goal setting. Make practice tougher than the competition or event. Every short-term and long-term goal should be stretch goals. In our case, we achieved stretch goals like losing 20 pounds in 35 days, volleying 4 hours without missing after fasting for 24 hours, and giving up coffee, the latter being the most challenging!
Coffee lovers know what I mean. Long-term stretch goals that we accomplished was breaking our past record in PRACTICE, giving us the confidence and belief that we could do it when that day came.
We shed the fear of making a mistake. Would our families still love us?
