MyTeam

MyTeam lose the match. It was kinda frustrating to see your very own countrymen to lose to some group of men from another land. Even if you are not an avid football fan, you can feel it. Feel the tense of fighting for the country's honour. Sometimes I feel like slamming those 'foreigners' head for wasting our precious time, faking injuries and kicking the ball out on purpose, but hey this is strategy.

Strategy
What does a team requires for winning? Talent, skill, speed, accuracy, teamwork, the never dying spirit, and strategy. Without strategy, you can easily be defeated even if you had the fastest, strongest, skilled man in your team. Strength alone, can't do it.

Life is a game. Play it well. To be the best player of life, you don't necessarily need the best things in the world. You don't need to be the richest person nor to be healthiest person. You don't need the best school, nor the best teacher. All you need is to make the best of what you have. Learn to appreciate everything around you. If you think you don't have enough money, think again, how would you be able to read this blog entry?

So, to be the best player is to strategise and play well. Making full use of everything around you. Your wealth, your family, your friends, your pet (yes, definitely), your health, your brain, your talents, the list goes on.

Mindset
The mind is like a king controlling a kingdom, what the mind says, the body will follow. What the mind believes, the body achieves. Seriously, have you ever heard of the hypnosis technique? Actually what happens when someone is being hypnotysed is that the hypnotysed person is told to do things by the hypnotist, uncountiously or subcontiously. The hypnotysed person actually believes that something will happen thus resulting him to follow what the hypnotist told him to do. If the person believes that the hypnotist can do nothing, then he won't be hypnotysed. It is what a person has in his mind that matters. Woah, it was kinda tricky for me to get to the point, but I hope you get the point.

So, if you want to win a match, believe that you can win. Trust yourself. Keep telling yourself that nothing is impossible. But be careful, don't be over-confident. This is completely different from believing. When you are being overly confident, your mind tells you that you don't need much effort to be the best. Then chances are that you won't.

So, lastly be happy about your match. Always look on the bright side of life.

words and music by Eric Idle- Listen

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best...

And...always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the light side of life...

If life seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.
When you're feeling in the dumps
Don't be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing.

And...always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the light side of life...

For life is quite absurd
And death's the final word
You must always face the curtain with a bow.
Forget about your sin - give the audience a grin
Enjoy it - it's your last chance anyhow.

So always look on the bright side of death
Just before you draw your terminal breath

Life's a piece of shit
When you look at it
Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true.
You'll see it's all a show
Keep 'em laughing as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you.

And always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the right side of life...
(Come on guys, cheer up!)
Always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the bright side of life...
(Worse things happen at sea, you know.)
Always look on the bright side of life...
(I mean - what have you got to lose?)
(You know, you come from nothing - you're going back to nothing.
What have you lost? Nothing!)
Always look on the right side of life...

:D
