So I stayed up late last night (well late for me) to watch one of my favorite hockey teams, The Detroit Red Wings, win the luminous Stanley Cup. It went into triple overtime...TRIPLE OVERTIME!! They were one shot away from winning it all. Then the Penguins made the goal....another game to go and another chance for each team to win.
Even though I was cheering for The Red Wings, I had to stop and admire the enthusiasm and perseverence that the Penguins had to move onward and upward. They fought to the very end and never gave up.
Sometimes we need to stop and look at our competitors and know that it is not always "in the bag". It's your passion, your perseverence, your hard work and preparation that will separate you from the rest. Just when you think the game is over, you get that one shot that makes all the difference and you are now back in the game!
