Lessons Learned from Coaches-
Every person starts off with a clean slate. Free of knowledge, worries, doubt and role models. When life matures, these ideals and people develop and form, beginning to appear in daily life. For example, I started playing soccer at an extremely young age (four years old). Through this sport, which I began playing competitively at age eight, I have learned many life strategies, along with getting guidance and advice from multiple coaches. I would say the greatest lesson I have learned from my coaches would be my intensity and life morals. If you don’t bring your all every practice and game, you get the bench. It doesn’t matter if you’re the best player on the team, if you skip practice, or don’t bring your 100%, you lost the opportunity to be part of the “team”. Due to these rules, which almost every coach in competitive soccer demands, I now not only bring 100% to everything I do on the field, I bring it into everything I do in my life. Therefore, I have learned that if you don’t bring your all in what you do, you’ll get the bench. Whether that’s doing bad on a school assignment, or not getting a call back for a job, giving everything you have is needed in order to succeed in this dog eat dog world.
