Dude, don't feel offended, but that really doesn't sound very grounded and some might say it sounds naive. Hopefully in a couple of years you'll understand what others are trying to bring across.
Tabletennis just doesn't work that way. Go to a Club, go outside. Play tabletennis and most important, play competitions, then you might get a slight idea.
Find a Coach you trust and some Training partners you like and then work!
As many others mentioned before:
There are no Shortcuts.
It's not about getting a good shot done once, you should be able to re-do it under the worst circumstances a hundred, a thousand, a zillion times. That repetition will bring security in your shots. AND NOTHING ELSE.
Then you're on the right path.
Same as I already mentioned to Kuka. Although I don't like many of his statements: sometimes even he's right.
Find a club and play one full season in a competitive league. If you win the half of the whole of your matches or more i'll really be surprised.
I don't want so sound loud mouthed, but if you do so and are successful, i'll buy you a blade plus rubbers. Let's say altogether for bout EUR 120,-. No Bulls*it. You don't have to buy me one if you don't succeed. I just want to tickle your motivation. Cause especially the first season is quite hard and not many beginning players win a lot matches... That's what makes me pretty sure I won't have to buy you that, but you can take me on my word, if you surprise me I will.
Self-confidence is one thing, overestimating oneself is something else..
I'm totally serious: if you find a club before the season starts and prove me wrong i'll be very surprised. And that's not cause I want to spoil your mood, but instead face reality.
I've seen so many beginning players that could win a game at Training but wouldn't score more than 4 points per game in competitions.
You would actually be one of the first to prove me wrong... But i really want to be proven wrong.
