I love tennis and agree this method is "the way" to win at tennis. Its a good skill to leverage in other aspects of life as well. However, I have seen this skill zealously applied to a startup and the person that uses it so well alienates others (internal and external to his company) by using it too religiously. It is just one skill and needs to be carefully balanced with the simple fact that in life and startups the overall score is many times more important than a particular point. Be careful with applying a tennis stratagem to life. You will get burned.
