Victory is Mine, Well...Ours

We won. A repeat, wow! I had put the goal out there for some of my team members before the season started, but I never really thought it would actually happen. It was just a goal, and it required a collective effort on the part of my team, but it came to fruition. It wasn't an easy road to the championship. We definitely had a lot of obstacles to overcome. Most teams don't repeat as champions at two different levels in two consecutive seasons, let alone do it after losing a quarter of their championship team. So winning back to back was no small feat.

This season served as a true inspiration to me for goal setting, overcoming obstacles, perservering, and rising to the ocassion. So, I guess this is evidence that if you take the time to establish a goal for yourself then you have a starting point. I can't say that I've been that good at doing that.

Continuous effort is a necessity; my team never gave up, we kept fighting. If each person in the line-up was able to find the energy to keep fighting through the longest matches, then why haven't I been able to do the same. Guess I better take a note from the team.

We won our division by 1 point, but that one point kept our hopes for a championship alive and kept us motivated to play for more. It doesn't really matter if I just barely make it to crucial milestones, just as long as I make it. Making it can only show me that I am capable of that and more.

While the ALTA fall season has ended and all business on the court has been handled, there is still more for me to work on to make it to the next level in my life off the court. I guess it's time to start my new season. I was a part of our team victory, but now I'm better prepared to battle to a victory that is mine.
