Excel Yourself

Thought Thought (Day 136: 13-Nov-2013)


And be the best.

It was October already. Another 100 days to prove that she could take part in the nationwide New Year’s Eve figure skating contest. Lakshanya had just 6 more contests of which she had to win at least 4 to be eligible for the big event.

Being hardworking and dedicated, Lakshanya put in hours practicing her moves and strategy. But all through that year, she was able to bag only silver medals in the figure skating competitions. The 4 golds that she needed now, made her focus on what she could do best to win it.

The more she thought about it, the more it occurred to her that she first needs to become the best, to become the first. What a wonderful play of words and message here. With lots of groundwork on what could make her the best, she implied all that in the contest and won her first gold for the year. Realizing and playing to her strengths won her rest five. Lakshanya had a smooth sail into the finals and out of it with its gold in her hand :)
