This is the essence of hitting a baseball thrown 95 miles per hour.

You must first learn to hit the ball off the tee, standing still. It requires patience, practice, and determination.

And I’ll say this: ... 1/ https://twitter.com/cecerecarl/status/1354486722764173315
There is more *perceived* failure in the game of baseball than anything else. Especially in ones own mind. Discipline, determination, and an understanding that failure (or being bad at something) is not dispositive of later success. 2/
Consider this:

I am 30% successful, yet I can be in the hall of fame.

At one point, I was even less successful. It’s a growth measurement. The higher in the game you go (law or otherwise) the more comfortable you have to be with *failure* (not in its traditional sense). 3/
In short: failure, or being bad at something, is only an opportunity to be good at something. Perspective of that fact matters.

As echoed by many others: Do the hard things. It’s worth it. /end
