I'd stop being afraid of making mistakes and make an effort to try new things. I'd learn to scuba dive and speak a new language. I'd do things I enjoyed, even if I wasn't good at them, like playing the piano. I'd continue with my lessons and wouldn't give up because I wasn't all that good. I would enjoy what I could do and not worry about what I couldn't want to change that - but I wouldn't get upset if I didn't win.
