I consider myself very soccer savvy, however the most important literacies I have acquired from soccer were the life skills of hard work, dedication and perseverance.…

    I was born, raised and educated in Chile; it was not easy to give up an imminent career as soccer player when I was younger; one of the biggest teams selected me and everybody anticipated I would have an outstanding career in soccer… well, all except dad: my father had something else in mind for me and decided not to support the dream of my life. At the beginning it was hard to believe, unfair, selfish. Then we had a conversation and I learnt that he pursued a career in soccer when he was seventeen, contrary to my grandparents desire for his only child, and he didn’t get anywhere because of the injuries.

My father passed away last year and mom still does not understand what made me react in that positive way, considering I was fifteen and I fought really hard to accomplish that call to pursue my dream… I often take this example to explain that regardless how hard and tough you expect a person will receive negative information, there is always a way to present the facts differently, humanly, positively.…
