My dad always told me that when I was two years old,I told everyone I met that I was going
to be the next Michael Jordan.One day when I was six,he looked me straight in the eye,
asking,“Are you willing to do any amount of work to become Michael Jordan?” I hesitated
for a moment,feeling the weight of his words,but then smiled brightly and nodded.
“All right.” He produced a sheet of paper and handed it to me,warning,“This will be
one serious commitment.” He gave me a pen and gestured for me to sign my signature at the
bottom of the page.
The next morning I had completely forgotten about the paper until,at the crack of dawn,my
father shook me awake.
“Get up,” he ordered.“Basketball practice starts today.”I complained,unwillingly getting out of my warm bed and following my dad.We headed out
to the driveway and he showed me an orange basketball.He threw it to me,and I clumsily grasped
it with both hands.That morning,I practiced for three hours,the most tired I’d been in those
years.Already,I was beginning to regret my decision to be the female version of Michael Jordan.
The next morning my dad dragged me out in the driveway at the crack of dawn,once again.It
was the same the next day,and the next day.I screamed that I would never touch a basketball
again,but he took out my signed contract and waved it in my face,explaining that I couldn’t
take back my words now.
Years passed and I began to accept basketball practice as just a fact of life.One day,at the age
of 15,I finally reached my goal—my 10,000 hours.That morning we practiced our usual three
hours,and for once,I felt like I may have learned everything there was to know about
basketball.At the end of our session,my dad hugged and congratulated me before handing me that
orange basketball and saying,“It’s yours now.”

That evening we had a party,with a huge basketballshaped cake.On top of the cake were five
candles that read “10,000”.I had never been so proud.My dad made a speech,and many of
my friends came to congratulate me.It was when the cake’s candles were lit that my dad handed
me the paper I had signed on that fateful day at the age of six.I felt tears welling up as I traced the
letters on that paper,each engraved in my heart.
Dad and I held the paper to the candle’s flame and watched it slowly burn.Those powerful
words that had bound me for nearly 10 years seemed pointless now.The crowd of family and
friends gave a great cheer to me.“So,are you going to quit now?” a friend asked.I looked
around,staring at the many pictures of Michael Jordan,and of me doing basketball practice over
the years.Then,without hesitation,I smiled and shook my head.“Never,” I responded.
