Full effort after days off

“I anticipate that I might not play amazing since I haven't hit a ball in days. That is okay. I will give a full effort in all other aspects regardless.”

Today, I am getting the opportunity to train with amazing coaches and players. I will probably only be able to practice for an hour before it starts raining again, so I will make the best use out of the time as I can. I anticipate that I might not play amazing since I haven't hit a ball in days. That is okay. I will give a full effort in all other aspects regardless.

I have an obligation to my parents, my coaches, and my future self that I am grateful for every opportunity to play. I will be enthusiastic and positive today because I am finally able to play the sport I love.

My coaching voice will remind me that I can enjoy problem-solving how to play better after not playing for a while. I will understand that mistakes are normal and a part of the process.
