I noticed a few people who I was familiar with at my high school. One in particular named Dillon Gibson. He is my friend as well as a football player that incorporated into this play. The first question I thought of, and asked him was, “WHat is truly harder this play or a football practice or game?” He had a tough time answering this question and had to think about it for a little bit. While he was thinking it convinced me even more that performing plays and sports are in some ways similar. He did answer the question with, “In their own separate ways they are both incredibly hard. To make a decision to choose which is harder is nearly impossible for me to make.” This completely destroyed my thought that sports were harder because this is a person who has experienced both situations telling me differently than what I thought. After having a talk with him it reminded me of a quote from a movie called Any Given Sunday. The coach tells the players in an emotional locker room speech, “Because in either game - life or football - the margin for error is so small.

I would even try to do this activity again, but do something different the next time that i did it. I would use the same approach, but not as extreme, like how I stereotyped. I would choose a group that is completely different than what my personality is. This experience also took me out of my comfort zone. When I first walked into the practice, I could feel myself start to sweat and my face getting red. Getting out of your comfort zone is a good thing to do for yourself as I found out in this experience. In closing, from this experience I have a new outlook on new opportunities and ideas and it is very
