Today, I'm going to be hitting with my school team. I want to make sure that I stick to my game. Since some of the players on my team aren't as good as me, I will sometimes get too comfortable because I know I can win. Then, even though I may still win, I am not improving my game at all. I also need to be extremely mindful of my mental composure. I will be emotional because I have not gotten enough sleep, but I can't show this emotion on the court. I will remain calm and mentally stable through the whole practice.
