I changed one thing and suddenly pickup made sense in Buenos Aires

This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. pickup got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.

I know this is a tiny sample size, but after 4 attempts the pattern is pretty clear. When I keep the setup simple, I actually follow through.

Context: I am not an expert, just someone trying to make Basketball feel less intimidating. I wrote down what worked, what felt awkward, and what I would do differently next time.

I started this because my busy month felt a little stuck, and highlights seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.
