Hello girls :)
I happen to come across this posted by Sundown Marathon on FB.
"In running, it doesn't matter whether you come in first, in the middle of the pack, or last. You can say, 'I have finished.' There is a lot of satisfaction in that."
-Fred Lebow, New York City Marathon co-founder
I thought that this reminded me of us too.
"In rowing, it doesn't matter whether you come in first, in between , or last. WE can all say, 'WE have finished this TOGETHER.' There is a lot of satisfaction in that."
Take pride in what you do and believe in yourself. More importantly, believe in your teammates, your friends. Love them, nurture them, don't doubt them and treat them like family because we are a family. The TPDB Family !
Cheers,
Si Hui

Visualization is a powerful technique that helps you create the things you want in life.
By visualizing your goals you'll send a picture to your subconscious mind.
Your subconscious mind creates your reality through the messages you send to it.
Joseph Murphy says that any mental picture, backed by faith and perseverance, will come to pass through the miracle-working power of your subconscious.
Every time you think of something you visualize it. By visualizing a certain event or a situation, or an object, such as a car, a house, money, success etc, we attract it into our life.
You must take control of your mental pictures because you always perform according to your self-image. Your self-image is made up of the mental pictures that you feed into your mind prior to any event. You have complete control over your mental pictures.
You can choose to feed your mind with positive, exciting, success images or vice versa, you can end up allowing yourself to be preoccupied by failure images.
Surrounding yourself with uplifting quotations and images, such as the quotation of Richard Brinsley Sheridan "The surest way not to fail is to determine to succeed" you'll feed your mind with success images. If you look back, you will find that almost everything you visualized positively eventually came true for you.
Trust it, believe in its power, and wonders will happen.

It may get frustrating when we can't perform to our expectations during water trainings, but there is no use in drowning ourselves with our own negativity. Smile, laugh like before, never let go of the enjoyment of paddling as a team. Keep mental images of what you would like to do and go for it, explore ways to get what you want ;)
same thing for your projects, tests and presentations! good luck and work smart!
may the db force be with you ;)
