A piece of advice I give to my younger self is probably do not compare yourself to anybody else. And it's easier said than done because, you know, for me, even, like in high school, I wasn't highly ranked. And you're always looking at the guys that are ahead of you. But you really have to lean into who you are, what makes you unique, and develop a work ethic around that and a confidence around that. I wish I would have done that even more than I did as a kid, just because that's where your superpower can kind of be born from.
