Turn A Setback Into A Comeback

This truly has been one of the most disappointing seasons of memory, the last time I can remember being so disappointing at the end of a campaign was after my last year of legions nationals and I missed the final by a couple centimeters. I faulted a jump that would have been a huge pb 20+cm and it was the last meet of the season, so just like that I had to wait another year to hit the numbers I knew I was capable of, well the next year I had a very successful season and ended up putting 75cm on my pb.
   I'm feeling pretty broken down right now, finishing the season exactly 1.00m off of my pb. But I know that I can make up the difference pretty quickly, give me 3 technical practices and I'll be right back. But I won't be satisfied with a mere 14.40m this upcoming season, I want to explode. The last outdoor and indoor seasons haven't gone as planned but I have learned so much... I feel like in mind, I'm miles ahead of where I was this time last year, it's just time for my body to catch up too. I want to have that smug moment where I have a huge pb and make everybody wonder where it came from. Essentially I feel like if everything goes right, I have a legitimate shot at breaking 15.00m... Then I can finally break open the bottle of champagne in my room!
