Great league teams notch three kinds of victories.
The first are the easy ones – they see off lower ranked teams with ease.
The second kind are the spectacular victories in high stakes contests. The last minute winner and the wonderful team goal just when they needed it feature here.
The most important, however, is when they summon the character and work ethic to grind out a victory when the circumstances aren’t ideal. On days when referee calls don’t go their way or when they’re not coming together as a unit, they still manage to out run the opponent to win.
Applies just as much to how we work as professionals. Quick wins are great, high stakes goals are memorable… but it is our ability to grind out results when the going is tough that makes the difference in the long run.
