Being a student athlete :)
The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
I'm going to answer the questions myself, I play salvo for the Georgetown Lady Tigers. Currently I am a practice player or a red shirt, didn't start playing until my junior year and then we lost our senior years. My freshman year of high school, I played football, season of softball because I never played softball, but my brother had played baseball his whole life. I play either left or right video when I played the fool bossy, I was shortstop, second base, I think third base at one point and then I would occasionally play the outfield. So I'm not going to say it's easy because it's not. Because if you're dedicated to both your sports and your school, it's going to be perfectly fine. You just really have to have extreme motivation to keep going because it's very tiresome. You're always going going if you don't want to be here, it is going to be awful for you. Nothing that is worthwhile is ever going to be easy. You're mentally, physically and emotionally strong and rushed yourself and make the most out of your time, no matter what you're doing, whether you're an athlete or just to speak, if you want to do it, you're gonna do, Is it easy? You know, it's not, it is so much about time management and being able to plan out what you need to get done, delegate time for specific things because if you stay on top of your school work, you'll have a way more time to socialize, to be in clubs and organizations and have a job. Then in regards to social life since I've been to college, I've been a little more distant from everybody because it's very hard I know for me to keep up with relationships or friendships that are over the phone because I don't see them every day with the people that I see every day, there's so much more easier to maintain a relationship that way. Then in regards to like extracurricular, it's just about knowing what you can handle because if you pile too much on, it's gonna be hard. If you know yourself and you trust that you're doing what you're supposed to be doing and that you are capable of doing it, you will be perfectly fine. I'm just gonna see where God just don't give up. You need to be prepared for the trials and tribulations that are going to come and you have to be able to be resilient, which means to like overcome failure and mistakes. Please don't give up on yourself because going to college is an amazing opportunity. When you have that college degree on your resume, most employers are going to take the one that has the degree over the one who does not any help. If you can you can message me or just trust in the people around you, make sure that you surround yourself by people that are good people that have a drive as well because they want to succeed is going to rub off on you. So that's why they always say surround yourself with people who you want to be. If you surround yourself with toxic people, you're just gonna bring yourself down. You need to be with people that is going to take you up and who is going to encourage you and always stick by your side and never, ever, ever give up on. A lot of people know Bardstown as like the motor town because all kinds of crap goes down there. So how old were you when you started? I couldn't get road. Yeah, I play basketball and softball. What position did you play when you play basketball? I was a point guard. When you just have to surround yourself with a good group of people, I recommend your Bosman's. If you don't have good grades are good today, you're not going to play. With just like clubs and your friends, like we all want to go out on the weekends. Like you're just exhausted from schoolwork and sports, but it does even out like you will have a week where you don't have as much, you have a weekend where you can't hang out with your friends. You just have to grow up and figure out how you can work everything out because it will work out. Unless you don't have to plan everything out and you wait last minute you won't have time. So it's a matter of wanting to make time for yourself because it is important to make time for yourself where you're just gonna Yes. Just point it out and they motivated don't worry about, hey, I've had a bad week because we all have a bad week, but you gotta remember that tomorrow is going to be better. Um, for softball, there's nothing the opportunities to play pastor, collegian career. I do love the sport on my goal is to hopefully be surrounded by at some point in my life, Maybe not right off the bat, like after I finished PT school, but they organized around yourself by people that are gonna help you have a good group of friends that are going to support you. It's just a matter who's showing yourself with and you've been a good head on your shoulders and keep pushing forward because if you don't you're not going to survive and call the honest, you have to do it yourself because nobody else is gonna do it for you. You do not grow up, you're an adult now your posters know that you can do it so you're gonna have to do it yourself. Like you're not getting in high school, they'll help you but they're not going to give the answers to you. The only playing for play football basketball and track up officer. Could you see yourself being like a coach or something Or maybe like it could be a mentor or that get your bread bread. Okay? Explain what get your bread and that means you gotta work hard, put in the hard work. Don't don't think that's gonna fly because it ain't gonna fly for it.
