Changing Makes You More Confident

I used to hate being called upon in class mainly because I didn't like attention drawn to myself. And unless otherwise assigned (指定) a seat by the teacher, I always _______ to sit at the back of the classroom.

All this changed after I joined a sports team. It began when a teacher suggested I try out for the basketball team. At first I thought it was a _______ idea because I didn't have a good sense of balance, nor did I have the _______ to keep pace with the others on the team and they would laugh at me. But for the teacher who kept insisting on my "going for it", I wouldn't have decided to give it a try.

When I first started _______ the practice sessions, I didn't even know the rules of the game, much less what I was doing. Sometimes I'd get confused and take a shot at the wrong _______ - which made me feel really stupid. Fortunately, I wasn't the only one "new" at the game, so I decided to focus on learning the game, do my best at each practice session, and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn't know "just yet".

I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the _______ and the "moves". Being part of a team was fun and motivating (激励, 动力). With time, I learned how to play and made friends in the process-friends who respected my efforts to work hard and be a team player. 1 never had so much fun!

With my improved self-confidence comes more _______ from teachers and classmates. I have gone from "_______" in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself, to raising my hand-even when I sometimes wasn't 100 percent sure. I had the right answer. Now I have more self-confidence in myself.
