I, I learned how to play and then I decided I wanted to try to get decent at it.
Um, I had a little too much gamble in me.
Even when I would play at Tufts against some of those guys, they would win.
But I, I, I always found that game, um,
the combination of things, right?
You have to, you have to be able to exhibit discipline, you know, self-discipline, and then you have to try to know, I think like something that's incredibly valuable in life is to know where you are in the hand, meaning like, where are you situationally, right?
Um,
It's situational awareness, but it's more than that.
It's like being aware of the terrain, but also being aware of if you have the proper footwear for that terrain.
