If your self image of what you could be is much bigger than what you are right now, and that keeps you from doing the things needed to get better because you don’t want people (or yourself) to think you are less than that self image you have You will never be what you could be

IMO the older you get, the harder it is to commit the amount of yourself you need to Job, significant other, kids, rent, other people’s expectations of you, obligations from every direction If you struggle committing when younger, you will absolutely quit when it gets HARD

Consistent high performance is so difficult because you need to bring a lot of attention to detail to basically everything, forever If you’re not actually about that life you can’t constantly fake it, it will beat you down and you’ll stop

Consistently see guys try and escape problems that come up for them. Get away from it, think about easier / no stress things, alcohol, video games, TV, phone, etc When you come back to reality, your problems will still be there. You’re just going to have less time to solve them

I really think there’s one way to throw as hard as possible IMO there’s different ways to throw hard because there’s lots of pieces involved and with a high enough ceiling you can ride one piece But currently I think there’s one way to use all of them as efficiently as possible

As a reliever, learning how to do your pregame throwing + bullpen warm ups in a way that preps you for the game if you get in, but also doesn’t take away from your ability to throw tomorrow at full capacity if you get told to sit down is insanely important

You will spend more money, time, and effort jumping from quick fix to quick fix than you will staring the actual big scary problem in the face and tackling it. And in the end, you’ll be in the same spot you are now, but with years less time to do the work that actually needs done
