These choices feel small in the moment, but they compound over 100 days. Youโ€™ll still have doubts. What matters is whether you let them make your decisions. You might do everything you can and still fall short. Thatโ€™s a possibility worth accepting before you start. But thereโ€™s a big difference between falling short after giving yourself a real chance and never finding out because you were busy protecting yourself. So when tryouts come, would you rather know, or wonder?
