Invest in yourself: I couldn't catch a football to save my life when i started playing in 6th grade. I had been playing soccer from kindergarten till then and continued to play until freshman year. I decided i would work hard in the off season playing catch and running routes so that i would be able to become a better wide receiver.
Follow your passion: My brother discourages me with photography and farming. He thinks that they are a waste of time and shouldn't be jobs. I find enjoyment in it and (at least i think) I'm not half bad at either of them. I get up every day and go out to the farm in Muskego to get my work done and love talking pictures of the animals.
Never too old to learn something: My parents at a young age never played baseball with me. I have never played the sport of baseball in my life but it could be because I only like batting because it's fun to hit things. I am learning how to play baseball and going to camps at Wisconsin Lutheran High School with my neighbor and going to pitching camps and batting cages.
