Michael Jordan didn’t get into the school team on his first try. Judges make mistakes, even if they never selected you on the second or third try, you keep doing the same thing over and over again.

Hi, I’m Marilyn Wo and this is StarPlayer Academy episode 111.
If someone comes up to tell me I cannot make it to the team, you know what I will say?
Nothing.
I will not say anything, but I will do one thing.
I will do something to make sure I will make it to the team ethically and legitimately.
Even if I would be denied due to any reason at all, I will make sure my current standards are statistically up to the team’s standard such that my denial is unjustified.
Have you been in such a situation?
Your results show that you are the better one, but you were denied entry into the elite team.
You were not only angry but feeling like all that you’ve done has gone to waste.
You feel like these people are not qualified to judge you and that you have every right to be selected because you have the numbers.
Your performance was amazing, you did your best, but the judges were biased.
What should you do?
If I were you, I will show up everyday, I will set my values of why I want to practice to the best of my abilities and be committed to my mission in the sport that I love, regardless of whether I’ve made it to the team. I love the sport, I love being at it everyday, I appreciate having this chance to do what I love. Many people are less fortunate to even have this freedom to do what they want.
I know it’s never easy to see the chance of your life slip by, I know that this could be a once in a life opportunity and it may not happen again.
Michael Jordan didn’t get into the school team on his first try.
Judges make mistakes, even if they never selected you on the second or third try, you keep doing the same thing over and over again.
You are an athlete, just show up every day.
