So lately in my basketball games, I have not done as amazing as I had previously hoped.  I averaged like 7 points per game, but I had really good defense.  It was just the offensive part wasn't going as smoothly as I wanted it to.  So I was really at a loss for what to do.  I realized that I was turning basketball into some sort of life or death activity instead of a my favorite thing to do besides eat.  I was setting my expectations too high, and suffered from it.  Also, I would get down on myself if I missed a shot or had a bad play, and it would affect me the rest of the game.  So I realized that I should just play basketball, have fun, and try my hardest.  That way, I just do what I love and the points and amazing plays will come.
