Maybe we can use our children whenever we’re looking for inspiration. Our daughter’s soccer team took a severe pounding the first 6 games of the season, but they never gave up. Through the beatings they played like winners, going into every game thinking they could win even though the score sheet told a different story.

Then the past 3 games they actually started to win and you could see a new swagger in their step. The winning attitude they showed on the field through the losses, now show in the score line after the last 3 games.

What can we learn?

1. Go into all you do with a winning attitude!

2. Compete! Even though the final result may not be what you hope for, don’t quit and give your ALL.

3. With a winning attitude and giving your fullest, will give you the outcome you hope for.

BTW parents who bark instructions to their children on the field either have to SHUT UP or be a coach. You’re NOT helping!
