I just had a quick view of my past in football of the pitch and on the pitch, a little of what I have observe and learnt from football are viz;
•To believe in myself.
•Humility.
•To be patient,while trying to hunt down my goals.
•Not to give up in life,that's why we have two halves first half and second half,so as to give a second trail.
•Taught me team work and cooperation.
•Not to be selfish,while trying to get my goals.
You have observed all this lessons from soccer because you wanted to learn. Many people have been playing soccer all their lives and have never stopped to think the lessons that can be learnt from the sport, they have just been playing. There are important lessons to learn from every sports, not just football, only those who want to learn will do so. The most important lesson for me from soccer is Teamwork which is important.
