Sometimes, I wonder whether people who watch soccer matches see the kind of things I see; the Lessons From Footballers, I learn. I do see full-bodied and full-blooded men throw their weights and strengths to be in control of a small round leather object (ball). People shout in the excitement of strength, goals, and skills.
But I wonder and ask: do people know that the same vigour, skills, veracity, and strength (“spirit “) they see footballers display to win a match can be displayed in other areas of life? Life and its endeavours can be replicated.
- Imagine students replicating the same spirit in ACADEMICS.
- Imagine leaders replicating the same spirit in LEADERSHIP.
- Imagine employees replicating the same spirit in WORKPLACE.
- Imagine job seekers replicating the same spirit in JOBSEARCH.
- Imagine business startups replicating the same spirit in BUSINESS.
- Imagine our politicians replicating the same spirit in GOVERNANCE.
- On and on and on…
I can now see an economy buoyant, progressive, and developed (not just developing) society. Something seems to have eaten the psyche of our people. They can shout about what goes on the football pitch but not what goes on in;
- workplace
- polity
- personal life, etc.
The vigour of excitement and strength displayed ONLY to win is teaching me the joy of winning, victory, and being a champion. Friends, this can be replicated in other areas of life. I’ve chosen to do so. Do the Same Now Sometimes, because there are Lessons From Footballers, I learn.!!!
