INSPIRATIONAL SHOT- Musa: The Volley That Gave Two Hundred Million People Hope

The first verse in the book of success is 'believe in yourself'.

At the World Cup in Russia 2018, the Super Eagles of Nigeria lost their first match of the tournament. They needed to win the second to have the chances of making it to the knock-out stage. A second loss would confirm their exit out of the tournament even before the third and the last one in the group stage.

I saw the bounce and improvement in the steps and play of the Super Eagles in the game against world cup first-timers, Iceland, after Musa almost tore the net with a sweeping volley to score the team's first goal in Russia 2018. Victor Moses’ cross was controlled with one touch, this set him up for an unstoppable half-volley with his second touch. That goal brought back the belief factor that they are there, in Russia, to compete as one of the best from Africa.

You need the same self-belief in your life if you want to become a success. Don't settle for external impressions to inspire you. All you need to deliver has been deposited in you.

REFLECTION
You are one of a kind; the same way your fingerprint is unique to any other.

The Super Eagles did not wait for an own goal to begin that revival after the dismal performance in the first game; this implies that they worked hard to get that first goal. They knew waiting for the opponent to help them win would be irrational and asking for too much. The second goal came and the rest became history.

Don't sit and keep waiting for Own Goals in your life. Don't settle for mediocrity. It is in you: all that you need.

Believe in yourself and go for it! Without self-belief, the desire to achieve something disappears and this makes it impossible for anything reasonable to be accomplished.
