Before these 4/5 months, I was practicing at the same rate and improving my game- slowly but steadily. Now it seems like whenever I identify a problem with my game and fix it, the problem always recurs, be it the day after I address it or a week later. I've really been trying to work on my consistency and it's just not improving at all, because I keep doing the same things wrong over and over again, and for some reason I can't keep it fixed for more than a week. Some of the things I have been trying to improve are footwork technique, movement, and handling low balls, and honestly, after I spend some time focusing on each issue, I do improve. However, when I stop completely focusing on one issue at a time and try to play my natural game, I just revert back to my old methods and miss shots. I can't figure it out.
