And hello, class of 2024.
This is so exciting.
Today, I want to share a few lessons I've relied on.
Effortless is a myth.
I mean it.
I say that as someone who has heard that word a lot.
Effortless.
People would say, my play was effortless.
Most of the time, they meant it as a compliment.
But it used to frustrate me when they would say, he barely broke a sweat.
Or he's even trying.
The truth is, I had to work very hard to make it look easy.
I spent years whining, swearing, throwing my racket before I learned to keep my cool.
I didn't get where I got on pure talent alone.
I got there by trying to outwork my opponents.
I believed in myself, but belief in yourself has to be earned.
Trusting yourself is a talent.
Embracing the process, loving the process is a talent.
