Shoot It

The Rebound

It’s Monday night, and I’m watching Johnny practice basketball.  They are working on the positions on the court and rebounds.  As I watched them practice, it reminded me of the importance of being aware of your position and rebounding.  There are times we totally blow the shot.  Sometimes it is from shooting from the wrong spot or being blocked.  When we do miss, there are a few options.  We can choose to say a few choice words and do nothing, watch the ball roll off the court, let it end up in someone else’s hands, or we can rebound and try again.  I’ve done every one of them.  In my world, it is not so much about missing the shot and making mistakes along the way.  Rather, I put more emphasis on how I recover from the missed shots and mistakes in hopes of not missing the same kind of shot or making the same mistake again.
