Fourteen thousand seven hundred seventy-seven
Think about that number.
Now think about the greatest basketball player of all time: Michael Jordan
Michael Jordan missed 14,777 shots during his career (regular season, playoffs, All-Star games).
He missed over 14,000 shots in front of millions of people, but he always went back out there and asked for the ball every time his team was on offense.
What are you waiting for? Go ask for the ball.
