“I'd better not take part in the tennis tryouts (选拔赛),” said my 14-year-old daughter Emily. “I'm afraid I won't make the team.”
“Do you want to join the team?” I asked.
“Yes, but I'll probably be out.”
“Well, you won't succeed if you don't try out,” said her brother Ben.
Her dad and I encouraged her to try—to take risks, to realise her dreams and to learn it is OK to fail.
I hoped Emily would make her own decision. A few days later, however, Emily still did not make a decision. Then Ben told her, “You should try, or you'll regret it.” At last, Emily nodded.
On Sunday night, the day before tryouts, the coach emailed the players to explain the rules. Each day, the girls could challenge the person right above them on the list. By the end of the week, the top 12 players would make the team. Emily was the lowest, Number 25 out of 25 players.
The next day, Emily went to the school playground. When I picked her up that afternoon, she was quite calm. “I beat Number 24,” she said. During the week, she continued her challenge and ended up at Number 19.
Emily didn't make the team, but she didn't care. She had overcome her fear, won more than she expected, and found herself pretty strong. Failure is a chance to learn and grow.
