Hand in hand with "ball", I think it's the same way with learning an instrument or music in general. I played for 3 years in middle school (grades 6-8) and put it down because I felt awkward continuing on through high school. Now, 8 years later, I've joined jazz ensemble at uni and feel so far behind but so glad I'm back into it. I sadly didn't come into a "don't apologize for the way your are mentality" until later in high school/early college.
