Growth comes when a person does something she isn't accustomed to doing.
I was playing basketball yesterday afternoon at Culver City High School. I drove to the rack a few times and converted lay-ups. During one sequence, after stealing the ball, I went coast-to-coast on a 3-on-1 fast break.
When I was in high school, I was mostly a shooter. I used to consistently knock down 15 foot open jumpers. One of my friends labeled me "Paxson."
But I've changed. I'm not much of a shooter anymore. I have moves now. Even though I usually won't score a mass amount of points, I can safely say I'm able to hold my own.
Two of the guys I was playing alongside said they were impressed with my play.
