this sense of mental tranquility has been long overdue, the icing on the cake was the 10 chapter test yesterday. It feels gd having to come to work not worrying whether you have enough time to study, able to slack and surf without guilt. Shall enjoy a few days of slack before starting for the final papers…….. again.
Anyway, caught this on the web:
I don't believe there is such a thing as a 'born' soccer player. Perhaps you are born with certain skills and talents, but quite frankly it seems impossible to me that one is actually born to be an ace soccer player. Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do. It is because of this that I decided to help youngsters with my experience. That's why this book exists.
Judging from hindsight, those who tasted success would be able say this, but wat about those who tried as hard and fail, those are the stories untold that are worth hearing, not success revelations that we are so so used to hear and see on the news.
They say when you dun give up, you will reach your destination one day. But whether you still have the capital (money, health, sacrifices required to be made) to reach that day is another matter.
Btw the quote was from Pele from here
