The reality of preparing for pro
If you do not have money or resources you can get stuck on the wrong team. The doubt is real. The answer is to control what you can.
Preparing for pro coming from a system like this is hard. If you do not have a lot of money or resources, you can get stuck on the wrong team or never get the chance to play at a high level at all. That is the truth.
There are weeks where it feels like everyone else is ahead of you. Like you are not doing enough, or not doing the right things. That feeling is part of it.
§Control what you can control
When the doubt shows up, that is exactly when you stay focused on what you can control and stick to the plan. Not someone else's plan. Yours.
For me that means continuing to build toward France and creating as much opportunity as I can, without wavering. The plan does not change because the week was hard.
