You drop the ball.
Miss the shot.
Say the wrong thing.
Your mind wants to rewind.
To replay the mistake.
To fix what’s already gone.
But the game keeps moving.
Athletes know this well.
The last play is done the moment it ends.
Carry it forward and it costs you the next one too.
Life works the same way.
Mistakes. Wins. Awkward moments.
None of them deserve permanent residence in your head.
