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 :)
