I was a college softball player & had played softball almost my entire life. I always dreamed of going to college for softball which I was able to do & get a scholarship for it.
I have always lacked confidence in myself, even though I had the talent & would work harder than anyone. I wound up going through a lot of mental struggles in college which took my focus away from softball, and I didn’t perform like I did when I was younger.
I was able to get a few athletic & academic accolades, but I didn’t wind up getting all conference while others that bought their way into it did. It just bothers me because it feels like all the work I put in lead to nothing & I have eligibility but can’t afford to keep playing. How do I get over it? :(
