Its ok for someone to be more talented than you, but that’s no excuse for to work harder. Discuss the biggest challenges you’ve had when it came to time and space in order to train in the classroom, gym, park home or anywhere else during your own free time.


I chose this topic because I feel that it best highlights my struggles to find time and apace to practice. When I started playing pickleball in the summer of 2022, I would’ve never thought I’d be competing in tournaments with my brother. It gave us a chance to prove that kids can do anything just as well as adults can when they put their mind to it.


You should treat others the way you want to be treated. Treat others with respect and they’ll do the same for you. Lack of natural talent is no excuse not to work harder than everyone. If you don’t have time or space to practice, you need to put all your effort into class to maximize the time that you do have.


I hope to continue my journey in wushu for another 1-3 years, depending on how my schedule changes throughout high school.
