Recently, I tried doing something new. I was scared at first, but I told myself to be brave and give it a try. I decided to join my school’s volleyball lessons even though I had never played before.
At first, I felt nervous because everyone else seemed better than me. I missed the ball many times and felt a bit embarrassed. However, my friends and PE teacher encouraged me and told me not to give up. I also practised at home with my brother.
After a few weeks, I became better at controlling the ball and passing to my teammates. I even managed to score my first point during a friendly game! I felt very proud of myself.
I discovered that trying something new can be scary, but it can also be fun and exciting. If I did not try, I would never know what I could do. Now, I want to be more confident and dare to try new things in the future.
