Many high school athletes have very inefficient practices because they don't learn or apply the principles of deliberate practice. Instead of just shooting around, do specific drills that challenge your current capabilities, with feedback from a coach. Train with a purpose.

When you know what you want and are willing to do whatever it takes to achieve it; you no longer run from your fears, you run through them.

The average, “normal” American has habits and a lifestyle incompatible with athletic success (diet, sleeping habits, partying, social media/TV use, etc.) If you want to have athletic success, you have to accept not being normal (in some ways, at least).

Can your teammates trust you?

If they can’t, it doesn’t matter how good you are at what you do.

You want to be so skilled/talented and so good at executing your game plan, that your opponent won't be able to stop you even if they know what's coming. If you can add unpredictability on top of that, that's even better.

Become a learning machine. Your progress will accelerate to the degree you get better at learning. Learn from failure. Learn from success. Learn from observing good examples. Learn from observing bad examples. Lessons are everywhere, you just have to notice and apply them.
