The Right Place
(at the right time)
~John Fitz
You should always try, even if you fail. Before, I thought of myself as a decent, but not great, soccer player. However, being in the right place at the right time gave me confidence as a soccer player.
So, here came the ball, dribbled by Charlie Hood, ( if you do not know him, he is all about being flashy and fancy, rather than just scoring that goal in the net, ) he took a couple dribbles and finally took the shot at the goal, which was blocked by the goalie, the ball rolled inside out, and I was right there for the opportunity, so I kicked the ball as hard as I could and scored the goal. To my surprise it went in!.
Before I scored the goal, I never thought I was able to hit that shot. But, that goal gave me the confidence to compete in soccer. I was amazed how I scored that goal. To be honest, scoring a goal in soccer is not like in other sports. In soccer, you need not only skill, but also luck. You need to be in the right place at the right time to score a goal. Luckily (or skillful) I was in that place at the right time.
Try it--it worked for me!
