Today I was looking through the Tennis Groups at Yahoo, when I came upon a group which had the picture of Arthur Ashe holding the Wimbledon 1975 Cup. I stopped to remember the Barcelona Open 1974! Yes that far back!
Then I was a qualifier in the Barcelona Open and during the tournament, through a request from Wojtek Fibak, I gave him the possibility to switch our qualifying spots for the Tehran qualies which at the time were also played in Barcelona.
The reason being for Fibak to have a bye (which I had in the Tehran draw) was so he could play only against Arthur Ashe the next day, instead of a Tehran match in the morning and Arthur in the afternoon on the same day.

It may seem a paradox that we speak of the "ego", word that signifies the "I", and oneself at the same time. The I "ego" is in each thought, memory, opinion and even action that we carry out in each moment.

Your work, your friends, the family, your bank account, all of it will slowly parade in your head without any suggestion of your own.. We are speaking of your another "I". The psychologists call it egotistic mind.
How this mind affect the development of our tennis?

In this eternal search to find a reason to why things happen and how we function, humans invented the biorhythms. Many are total believers in it, while others consider it just plain hocuspoucus.
From the tennis competitive and winning edge point of view, could this be used as a factor? I have no idea! Let us explore.
Since I am open-minded (curious) and I believe one should test first, so I decided to look at one of these biorhythm websites and enter the players birthdates as requested and copy the chart results as well as the website explanation for the charts that reads:
