Today is the first day of camp. In the afternoon, we went through a segment called REMEMBER THE TITANS. Our coaches brought us through our paces, and this was the training we must go through to go from ROOKIE to MVP and run the RACE of our lives tommorrow. In this segment, we had to brush up our basics in order for us to be a BIG GAME player. A CHAMPION.
Amongst them was the pieceing of a jigsaw puzzle as a group. This seems so simple yet it brought us together cos each of us is like a jigsaw piece. Only when we find one another and find the perfect fit can we see the bigger picture. And it demanded a lot of patience and strive for excellence of which we had a lot of practice for.
There was also a segment based on resilience and determination. Using our body, we had to blast through a wall of ‘defenders’ (our friends) who would use their body weight to push against us. We had to move towards our objective or outcome and our friends symbolised the obstacles that we would face. Given that, we learnt that we need to FOCUS ON OUR OUTCOME and DO WHATEVER IT TAKES, be COMMITTEED to OUR GOALS 100 per cent. If such a simple yet meaningful activity could be done by us, we can definitely take on other challenges in life, right?
