The motivational speech that got Arsenal over the line? 🏆

Mikel Arteta reveals to Tom Hiddleston that his words were shown to the Gunners squad in their title run-in 🗣️

[Arojinle @arojinle1]

I generated this image to make you understand my point better. Even though Man City finished second on the English Premier League table and Manchester United finished third, Man City are in a mournful sadness while Man United are celebrating.

This is the philosophical condition of all human ambition. Our joy and suffering are not measured in absolute position, but in distance from where we thought we would be.

The fairest team in the world

[OptaJoe @OptaJoe]

1 - Arsenal have become the first side in @premierleague history to neither concede a penalty or receive a red card in a single campaign. Focused.

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

@readswithravi Nick Saban said, "If you want to be good, you really don’t have a lot of choices because it takes what it takes."

"You have to make choices and have the discipline."

Focus on what matters today, not worrying too much about the past or the future.

In 24 hours, Mikel Arteta took Arsenal to first league in 22 years, Andoni Iraola took Bournemouth to Europe for first time ever and Unai Emery took Aston Villa to first European trophy in 44 years, first of any kind in 33 years. All born within 30 miles of each other. Gipuzkoa.

I just had the craziest experience at the airport.

We are about to board a flight to Atlanta when the pilot from the incoming plane walks out of the jetway. Guy is probably late 50s, salt and pepper hair, military look. The kind of pilot you instantly feel good about seeing on your flight.

Pilot walks over to the counter, gets on the PA system, and starts addressing everyone. “Folks, I’ve been doing this a long time. Flying one of these jets is easy. The hard part is looking at 130 people and telling them their flight is going to be delayed.”

Audible groans throughout the boarding gate. Most people here are flying to Atlanta as a layover before another flight. 130 people just had their day become a complete mess.

The pilot goes on. “I get it, trust me. But here’s the deal: During our landing, we had a small mechanical issue. I’m not your pilot for the next leg, but I don’t feel confident the jet’s safe to fly until we have a mechanical team look it over, and I don’t feel comfortable asking the next pilots to fly you guys until we get confirmation.”

He points at the agents next to him behind the counter: “Now, none of this is the agents’ fault. Please be kind to them. I’m the one who made this decision, not them, so any inconvenience you experience is my fault. Just please know that I don’t do this lightly, and I’m only doing it because I believe it’s in the best interests of everyone’s safety.”

Now this is where the story gets crazy. The pilot puts the microphone down, grabs his suitcase, and all the people in the gate…

Start clapping.

I’m not joking, everyone starts clapping for the guy. 130 people who just had their travel plans ruined give an ovation to the guy who made the decision and delivered the message.

All because he addressed them with decency and transparency, took ownership of the decision, made it clear that it was necessary, and explained why it was in everyone’s best interest.

It’s honestly one of the best examples of strong communication—of strong leadership, for that matter—that I’ve seen in a long time.

@Delta, whoever your Atlanta to Wichita pilot was this morning, he’s one of the good ones. Please tell him the delayed passengers of flight 1637 appreciate what he did.

I was on a train in Tokyo. We stopped between stations. Announcement in Japanese, then in English: "We apologize for the delay. We will resume shortly."

The delay was maybe 3 minutes. Not a big deal.

When the train started moving again, another announcement: "We sincerely apologize for the delay. We were stopped for 3 minutes and 20 seconds. This is unacceptable. Thank you for your patience."

Three minutes and twenty seconds. They measured it exactly. And called it unacceptable.

When I got off at my stop, there were station staff on the platform bowing and handing out delay certificates.

I took one out of curiosity. It was an official document stating that the train had been delayed by 3 minutes and 20 seconds, signed and stamped.

The staff member said in English "for your employer. So they know the delay was not your fault."

I said I'm a tourist, I don't need it. He looked confused. "But the delay affected you. You deserve an apology."

Three minutes. They were treating a three-minute delay like a major incident.

Later I mentioned this to a Japanese friend. They said "oh yes, delay certificates are normal. Trains are supposed to be exactly on time. If they are late, they must apologize."

I said three minutes isn't late, it's nothing. My friend said "in Japan, three minutes is late. On time means on time. Not approximately on time."

They said the train company probably investigated why there was a 3-minute delay. "They will find the cause and fix it so it doesn't happen again."

I kept the certificate. It's framed in my apartment now. A reminder that somewhere in the world, people care about three minutes.

Sacrifice without communication creates invisible resentment.

I spent 4 years paying my younger sister’s school fees. Every single kobo.

The day she graduated, she gave the acknowledgement speech and thanked everyone except me.

I sat in that hall and felt my soul leave my body 😭.

When she got admission, things were tight at home.

I had just started my first job.

I told our parents, "Don't worry. I’ll handle it." And I did.

Every semester. No breaks.

There were months I was eating 0-1-0 so her account wouldn't run dry.

I never told her. I didn't think I needed to.

Graduation day, she looked beautiful. The first graduate in our family.

I was prouder of her than I’ve ever been of myself.

Then she got the mic.

> She thanked God. (Fair).
> She thanked our parents. (Expected).
> She thanked her friends who kept her sane.
> She even thanked her HOD.

Then she sat down.

My mother looked at me. I smiled and looked away, but the clapping felt like it was happening in a different room.

I didn’t say anything that day. Or the week after.

But something in how I moved changed.

I stopped volunteering. Started waiting to be asked. Started noticing who actually noticed me.

People say, "Don’t give to be recognized." I agree to an extent.

But there is a thin line between not needing applause and being erased by the person you bled for.

That's not humility. That's invisibility.

We’re fine now. I brought it up six months later, calmly.

She cried, and said she was nervous and blanked.

Maybe. Maybe not 🤷

But I learned something either way.

Sacrifice without communication creates invisible resentment.

Tell people what you are carrying for them. Not to guilt trip them. But because silence makes martyrs, and martyrs make bitter people.

This same dynamic shows up in dating every day.

You’re playing the provider or the supporter in silence, while your partner thinks you're just an oil money that never runs dry.

Stop accepting the bare minimum of gratitude. If they don't see the sacrifice, they won't value the person making it.

Has someone ever made you feel invisible in a relationship after everything you did for them?
