“Figure encased
-the boss is embossed-
It would be a shame if the player had lost
‘cause of impatience or due to remaining the same;
Truly the training was not all in vain,
but that being said, you should switch up your ways:
Do not fail, become dated or stale;
Don’t trick yourself that you’ll pale from a past iteration;
Focus on what you are doing, it provides vindication
-Just do what you love, let yourself do it well;
Don’t get in your head, or it will start to swell or deflate;
Self-esteem will degrade
-and please don’t berate, castigate, or discourage;
Just know that you’re worthy:
You have the mind - all this takes time -
So continue the grind with the shine in your eye -
Perservere ‘til you’re fine.”
