So continuing to push yourself to interact with as many people as possible , put yourself in uncomfortable situations where you're going to be talking to people who you may not know , you may have to make that first hi , I'm so and so . Um , but pushing yourself to have those uncomfortable interactions in your recruiting process and allowing others to get to know you . And you going out of your way to get to know others as much as possible will , I think benefit you a lot in the long run .
And like I said , stay consistent with nutrition , things like sleep , um , trying to move my body throughout the day , even on recovery days , like not pounding my body and doing a hard workout , but trying to listen to how It's feeling and still trying to move it around and just doing um small things every day that will lead up to big results over time . My biggest challenge , I think , to get here and something I still struggle with is most of the mental aspects when it comes to playing and competing at the highest , highest level , um , especially when I'm at the point I'm at now . Um , everyone works hard , everyone does most of the small things right and the margins .
Um , I sometimes have to push myself in order to interact with others , um , just because I'm just naturally more reserved and , and that's OK . But I know in situations like when I'm being recruited , it's going to benefit me and others the most . If I put the effort in to interact and the others get to know me .
So , yeah . I think for me in in my recruiting process , uh , I'm naturally not the most outgoing person . Um , I sometimes have to push myself in order to interact with others , um , just because I'm just naturally more reserved and , and that's OK .
And you going out of your way to get to know others as much as possible will , I think benefit you a lot in the long run . Well , that answer changed a lot through my recruiting process and why do I want to play , where do I want to play . Um , like I said , at first , Northwestern was not where I was naturally pulled to , um , just wanting to stay comfortable , um , by my home , by my family .
