Veronica
Campbell-Brown has been involved in athletics for a very long time, and
has a reputation for always giving her best and creating history in
almost every race she has participated in. We can look at her consistent
performance as a result of much discipline and training.
Discipline
This
means developing and sticking with habits that help you to achieve your
goal, even when you don't feel like it and even when it gets hard. For
Veronica, this means regular training and practice. She has to practice
her race start, turning corners for the 200m, do various exercises, and
eat healthy. I'm sure she doesn't always feel like eating vegetables
instead of fast food, but discipline is about making the decisions that
will benefit you in the long run, and sometimes that means refusing to
do what will gratify you now.
Confidence
If
there's one thing you can say about VCB, she always looks calm before
and after her races. In fact, you hardly see her getting agitated or
displaying nervousness and fear. This is the result of confidence, which
is that quality in winners that makes them sure that they have what it
takes to win.
Usain is another
example of confidence. He's so calm, he can even play around with the
cameras before races. Confidence is the result of hard work and
training. If you've practiced and properly prepared, you can feel
confident that you will give nothing less than your best on your big
day.
