And I would say follow that and pursue that route . Some of the things that I've picked up since being at school , uh , for softball has been changing my mentality to not only be outcome focused but more of process focused . So , understanding maybe that wasn't the best pitch ever , but here's a positive that I can take from it or here's something I can learn and understanding that softball is a big game of failure .
And I think that's something that's really , really helped me out is staying ahead , staying on schedule and making sure I know what's going on and what my weekly plan is if I can give my yourself a little bit of advice . It would be to not put so much pressure on yourself and just take it day by day , learn from the past , learn from your mistakes and grow from it , especially in softball where things don't always go your way . And once you understand that you're really able to have a different perspective on the sport and your position , just putting your best foot forward and giving 100% of what you have that day is a piece of advice that I would definitely give myself .

So the more that you're able to learn from it and grow from it , the better that you can be when training and when trying to reach those goals that you have for yourself .
So making sure that I'm fueling myself well enough to perform at the best of my ability . Some of the challenges that I've had to face was finding a balance between softball and regular life outside of it . Um , and understanding that you're able to have that balance , they'll be at your best finding that was really , really important for me , especially when I came to college where athletics is so much a big part of your life .

So coming here and being able to separate softball in school and social life has been something really key to me that I feel has helped me just be successful and be where I am today . I was a really early commit .
