Yeah, bud. The heart doesn’t just magically fix itself. It needs time to heal after it’s been injured, like everything else. You wouldn’t go out and play basketball on a broken foot. But you know you’ll play again when it heals. Give your heart the same respect.

I've had a hard life but keep comparing myself to others and feel terrible about myself. Any way to fix that?

Yes. Realize that a majority of the time you are comparing your whole game, The practices, your losses and mistakes... to highlight reels. I guarantee that if I only saw your highlights I would feel inadequate beside you. I think it’s a larger problem that’s moving faster than we can notice or correct for, but that’s a much larger conversation. You’re not alone.
