I get down on myself, and then I don’t do as good as I know I’m capable of.
-Basketball(And…every other sport) – I don’t have the confidence I should to be a “team leader” that I know I’m supposed to be. I’d like to think my coach has confidence in me, but it’s really the confidence in myself that screws me over. I think if I just believed in skills I have, I’d be a lot better. ..When I get caught up in the game, or when I’m just screwing around for fun, that’s when it really shows. I’m too judgemental of myself.
- School – I could be doing a lot better then im doing – but I’m not, all because I feel I’m stupid, and can’t do this and that, and it’s just brutal really.
I gotta stop this way of thinking!! I think I know what I’m capable of, and then when I fall just a little bit short, that’s when I get discouraged and think that I have zero abilities at all.
