🚨❤️🩹 Lisandro Martínez: “I was considering RETIREMENT from football after I suffered ACL injury last year”.
“I just didn't want to suffer anymore, you know?“.
"I was really hit low, but then my daughter was born, and that kind of balanced everything out for me”.
“I saw how my wife gave birth and the immense effort she made, and I said to myself: How am I not going to keep fighting?”.
We honour the legacy of Diogo Jota with the announcement of the Diogo Jota FC Pro World Championship Trophy. 💚
With his family's blessing, the trophy has been renamed in recognition of Diogo's love for EA SPORTS FC and his passion for esports - both as a competitor and as the founder of his own esports team.
It will be lifted for the first time this summer at the FC Pro World Championship. We will continue working with Diogo's family to find meaningful ways to honour his legacy. Our thoughts remain with his family, friends, teammates, and everyone who knew and admired him.
In theory, consistency is about being disciplined, determined, and unwavering.
In practice, consistency is about being adaptable. Don't have much time? Scale it down. Don't have much energy? Do the easy version. Find different ways to show up depending on the circumstances. Let your habits change shape to meet the demands of the day.
Adaptability is the way of consistency.
🚨🗣️𝗧𝗛𝗥𝗢𝗪𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞: When Wayne Rooney described the 2010 South Africa World Cup as the WORST World Cup ever.
"You are not getting a WORSE World Cup than South Africa in 2010. That tournament NEVER felt like a World Cup."
Your first attempt might not be very good, but nobody's early work is good. There will always be a gap between where you are and where you want to be. And the bridge between that gap is courage. The courage to look foolish in the beginning. The courage to show up again when your early work is criticized. The courage to look yourself in the mirror and say, "I realize I'm not good enough yet, but the only way to get better is to keep working on it."
