I would like to discuss certain principles that are crucial for our success and our journey to the top of the table.
First and foremost, let's acknowledge the power of a positive attitude. Your attitude is one of the most important factors that will determine your success. It affects how you approach challenges and how you interact with others, including your teammates, coaching staff, and management.
As we embark on this long season, we must recognize that it won't be easy. There will be challenges, hard work, and difficult times. However, it is vital that each of you chooses to maintain a positive attitude even when things are not going right. During these moments, you will develop resilience and strength, which will be instrumental in achieving our goal of promotion to the Upper League or Premier League next season.
When you face challenges, embrace them as opportunities for growth and learning, both as individual players and for the benefit of the team.
However, having a positive attitude alone is not enough. It is equally important for each of you to have a clear vision of what you want to achieve by the end of this season.
Without a clear and precise vision, we will not reach our desired destination. Simply stating that "we would like to be in the top 6" is not sufficient. Look at examples such as Acun Ilicali's press conference from last year, where a clear vision was established.
Your clear vision serves as a roadmap that will guide you towards your goal. Once you have a clear vision, you must take action, which is what we have been discussing so far, to achieve our ultimate goal of promotion.
It's not rocket science anymore. You must be willing to do whatever it takes to achieve your goal, which means putting in the time, effort, and dedication required to succeed. Never stop learning and developing your game and personal skills. Always strive to improve yourself and become a more skilled player. Commit to this journey and never stop learning.
In conclusion, the principles we have discussed today are simple but not easy. You must choose to have a positive attitude, a clear vision, take action, and never stop learning.
Remember, this is a journey we are embarking on, and it will require collective effort and determination from each and every one of us.
Thank you.
