Enter any typical American home and you’ll find clutter. What’s the reason for this? First, we’re generally not aware of it.

One thing about tennis I’ve learned is that by the time you play a match, whether it’s in a tournament, a contract or league, it’s too late. And what I mean is it’s like the final exam. You should have done your homework and gotten your practice in. It seems like you are either in …
