Let your compelling sense of purpose help you power through great challenges and obstacles in order to stay determined to move forward. Convert failures into your tactical blueprint on how to navigate through land mines of uncertainties and temporary loses. It will be daunting sometimes and you will feel helpless and exhausted. Remember that it’s okay to rest a little but you must never quit.

My eldest daughter, Nina, was determined to win a medal for their high school, Regis Grace Montesori. Their school does not have a sports training program that is why it has never won any medal in any competition in the city of Parañaque. She had rigorous weekly badminton training from an external Coach and trains months before the actual inter-school competition in Parañaque City. The winner gets to represent the city in “Palarao” which is the national competition.
I accompanied my daughter in all of her trainings and saw how she cried, got injured, how her body & endurance were tested in order to be ready for the competition. I cheered for her during all her competitions. She won silver medal in 2011 and 2012 competing against very strong school varsities in the city during her junior and senior high school years. While she did not win gold to compete in the nationals, she inspired their school to finally develop a sports program for students.
