Whatever you do at the table when you play a table tennis match, you can’t get too emotional after missing a shot because it can cost your match if you don’t recover quickly emotionally. Mistake ritual is a great way to deal with mistakes. Mistake ritual is a physical gesture that you do consistently after missing a shot. This physical and mental pattern helps you to move on and flash your mind and focus on the next point. For example, turn away from the table, look at one spot and take a deep breath and walk in a big circle. The goal is always to focus on the next point, regardless of what happened the previous point.
