Aviators of Fastpitch

You are not behind. You are not a failure. You’re being forged for greatness and swords are shaped by fire and by the swing of a hammer. Not handed to you on the mountaintop. It’s hard, but the lesson is priceless - when you are able to evaluate your situation apart from outside influence. Keep going. Well said 🔥

“I wish someone would’ve told 15-year-old me this.”

You are NOT behind.

Someone else being better than you right now doesn’t mean they always will be.

Someone committing before you doesn’t mean you’re failing.

Someone throwing harder, getting more attention, playing on the “better” team, or having more success doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with you.

I wasted way too much energy comparing my path to everyone else’s.

And FAILURE? I thought failure meant I wasn’t good enough.

Now I know failure was probably one of the greatest teachers I ever had.

The bad games. Getting my ass kicked. Not being picked. Questioning myself. Feeling like everyone else was moving forward while I was standing still.

None of it meant I was behind.

I was becoming the athlete I needed to become.

I just wish I understood that at 15.

It’s one of the reasons I’ve written so much about the mental side of this game. I want young athletes to have some of the 💩 I didn’t have.
