Assignment 19 Daniel Zhu

The one piece of advice that I've gotten that's really stuck with me is to never give up. My dad is constantly reminding me of this as he sees sports events in which teams make some insane comeback.  But on a personal level, when I struggle through life whether it be because of school, sports or anything, I always remind myself to never give up. Even if you're at your worst, you can only get better. I'd rather be 0/30 than 0/5 in three pointers in basketball because it shows that I never lost my confidence. Once you lose confidence in yourself, that is when people tend to struggle. When you're shooting 0%, things can only get better from there. I take this advice into school whether I'm struggling in a class that I need to constantly remind myself like you can do better and that it isn't the end of the world if I screw up a test. I really take this to heart because many people do give up after every possible thing is thrown their way and that's when people start to make bad decisions. The advice has just constantly reminded me to keep my head up and to look forward on what is to come.
