No one starts out great
Scared? Ask yourself how
much this will matter a year from now
Losing more opportunities the longer you wait

You can’t rely just on fate
Learning is not something we disallow
Imagine thinking “wow,
anyone unskilled, I’ll hate.”

Think of a basketball player
Gasping for air, yet chasing the ball like a dog on the court
See people outdoors, kicking a wet ball around in the rain

Those who are watched by many an inattentive surveyor
Would they go through such discomfort
If the reward wasn’t worth the pain
