As an athlete, one thing I wish I could tell my younger self is to embrace the journey rather than focusing solely on the end results. There will be ups and downs, victories, and setbacks, but each experience is valuable. Trust the process, learn from failures, and enjoy the moments along the way. Developing resilience and maintaining a positive mindset will serve you far beyond sports. Remember, it’s not just about the medals, but the lessons and relationships you build throughout your athletic career.
