Today, I am getting the opportunity to train with amazing coaches and players. I am very sore today. I need to try to perservere and continue training hard. I will take care of my body by doing a good warmup and stretching, but when I am on court, I need to ignore it all. I will play matches where I am injured and I need to practice playing through pain now.
I have an obligation to my parents, my coaches, and my future self to not complain. I understand that it will be very tough, but these are the moments where I learn to be a good fighter.
My coaching voice will remind me that by loving the battle, creating my own state of enjoyment, and accepting the hand dealt to me with no complaints, I am practicing being mentally strong.
