Hi Galen, the first thing I'm going to do is thank you: thank you very much.

And now I go to the sport. The only sport in a formal way that I have practiced is Soccer. I federated when I was 13 or 14 years old and practiced it seriously for two years. In soccer it is a team sport, even if the media emphasize the individualities (Messi, Ronaldo,...) and you learn to work as a team. Teams work thanks to the automatisms that are acquired through work and effort. I believe that in this, team sports are an opportunity to learn to work as a team, including accepting secondary roles for the success of the team. Individual sports are also team sports, and I think you also learn the same thing: discipline, effort, perseverance and humility are the keys to achieving goals.

In bad times, sport is also a great teacher. When I was 17 years old, I quit soccer because of a knee injury. An operation and two years of physiotherapy could not fix what was broken. And a simple meniscus injury ended up being an ordeal of pain. And that was also an apprenticeship.

Have a great day
