This one thing, if you do, it will completely kill your recruiting process. And not only kill it, but it'll zap the entire fun out of what the process can be. And this one thing I'm talking about is comparing yourself to others. Especially in high school, it's tough for a kid to go through the recruiting process. Be on Twitter all day, be on social media all day, looking at all these top recruits, get offer after offer after offer. You almost feel like, this is what I want. This is what I strive for every single day. Why am I not getting this? Why am I not getting the same recognition? It's frustrating. It's demotivating. I know because I was there. Dad went through the exact same thoughts, and there's definitely no quick fix. I can't tell you. Just, hey, snap your fingers and don't compare yourself to others. But you have to constantly remind yourself, okay, well, hey, this person, you know what? Yeah, they're a little bit more athletically gifted than me, or they're in a different situation than me. They go, they're from a bigger state or a bigger school or, you know, have connections somehow that ended up getting them in front of college coaches a little bit quicker than everybody else. But ultimately, if you want to succeed, you can't compare.
