Trail Map to Peak Success

Show up.
Every day you come, you're banking fitness. Strength, Flexibility, Cardiorespiratory and Cardiovascular Endurance, Power, Speed, Accuracy, Agility, Balance and Coordination are all improving daily, especially in the beginning.
There will be 100s of things that try to prevent you from just showing up. Don't let them.
Understand that it will be hard and you will be sore.
Even the most "fit" people that aren't used to Constantly Varied Functional Movement at High Intensity will have difficulty. It doesn't matter if you're an Ironman triathlete or a former college football player. Even folks that have done programs that tout "functional" fitness or that equate circuits and HIIT training with "something like CrossFit" will be out of their element. It's alright, everyone has been there.
Don't compare yourself to anyone.
I can't emphasize this enough. Your only competition is yourself. You can look at what other people do, but to say "I should be able to beat so and so because of somesuch reason" like I've been here longer, or I'm naturally better at it than they is silly bullshit. Don't do it. Compare yourself to your previous self if you must. You're on your own journey at your own pace.
Listen to your coaches.
There are myriad reasons why to do this. Experience is the most important. While you've been focused on yourself, your coach has been observing and working with hundreds of people, perfecting cues and figuring out how to get you to the best place possible.
