Doing 100 pushups doesn't mean you are very strong at all. First you will have to start with higher-intensity pushups.
Try doing ones with your legs elevated to make them harder.
Along with those, start doing one handers where you make the movement easier, such as leaning against a kitchen counter to give you more leverage.
Gradually add tougher moves until you can start doing one-handed negatives(come down as slow as possible).
Then in time you will be able to do a one hander
For the balance part, just make sure to tense up your entire body, especially at your abdomen
Start with doing the elevated-feet puhsups and also bring your hands closer to work the triceps more. These should be quite challenging

You have to spread your legs, turn your torso in the opposite direction of the arm you are pushing up with, and make sure to keep your legs and torso ridgid. Your arm has to be almost directly under you.
I still do those, although not as part of my resistance training. Try doing 1 armed on fingertips. THAT is hard as hell.

Apparently the hardest pushup is where you do a one hand pushup and as you come up you clap
