Life Lessons from an aspiring Soccer Professional


Life Lessons from an aspiring Soccer Professional

 

On Wednesday afternoon, it was a great privilege to have Yianni from OLYMPIACOS FC speak to the 5/6 students about important topics such as resiliency, self-discipline, courage, and team spirit. These are all valuable qualities that can help students succeed not just in sports, but in all aspects of life.

 

Resiliency is the ability to bounce back from challenges or setbacks, and it's an important quality for anyone to have. Self-discipline is the ability to control one's behavior and work towards goals, even when it's difficult or there are distractions. Courage is the willingness to face fears and take risks, which can lead to growth and success. And team spirit is the ability to work together and support each other towards a common goal, which is especially important in team sports.

 

It's wonderful that Yianni shared his experiences and insights with the students, as hearing from someone who has achieved success in their field can be inspiring and motivating. Hopefully, the students were able to take away some valuable lessons from Yianni's talk that they can apply to their own lives.
