You don’t have to be a professional athlete or an Olympic champion to be
a successful athlete. Nor do you have to have a room full of trophies, win a
state championship, or make the front page of the sports section. Successful athletes are those who feel that
their sport is important to them and they’re committed to being the best that
they can be within the scope of their limitations – other life commitments,
time, finances, and their natural ability. They set high, realistic goals for
themselves and train and play hard. They are successful because they’re pursuing
their goals and enjoying their sport. Their sport enriches their lives and they
believe that what they get back is worth what they put into their sport.
