Default What Is Something That Helped You?

Name a program, method, or even a tip you got from someone that truly helped you and tell your story. It can be about Basketball Or Vertical

One thing I can say is to never stop learning and always try to correct your mistakes, if you have a digital camera record yourself and watch yourself to correct mistakes.

1 thing that helped spesifically my basketball. My mental aspect of it. I condition my mind so that I will try my best and to b a point getter. So it actually did happen and I improved as a result.

Great programs like VJB and hard work. Never take a day off because remember when you're sleeping there's someone out there getting better than you.

Take a look at some great sources of help.
