The Power of Trust. 信じる力
Yesterday, I experienced two different kinds of victories.
(昨日、私は2種類の勝ちを経験した。)
The first one started with a fast and powerful beginning. However, I slowed down in the middle, and I couldn’t accelerate as I wanted.
(1つ目は序盤から勢いのあるスタートを切れた。しかし中盤でペースが落ち、思うように加速できなかった。)
The second one didn’t have a smooth start. I struggled at the beginning, but I managed to adjust my pace and found my rhythm in the second half.
(2つ目は序盤のスタートがうまく行かず苦しんだ。しかし加速と調整がうまくいき、後半でリズムを掴めた。)
I feel truly grateful to experience so many kinds of trials, errors, and adjustments in just one day.
(1日の中でこんなに多くの試行錯誤や調整を経験できるなんて、本当にありがたいと思う。)
I wonder how the kids felt about it. I hope they can honestly accept what they feel inside themselves.
(子供たちはどう感じているのだろうか。自分の状態や内面で感じるものを正直に受け取ってほしい。)
It was a moment when the essence of the words I’ve spoken until now became real through experience.
(今まで自分がかけてきた言葉の本質を、経験を通して実感できた瞬間だった。)
For the girls, I want them to be tougher, bolder, and more aggressive. If each of them fulfills her role and finishes even one more shot, I believe they can become overwhelmingly stronger.
(女子はもっと泥臭く、激しく、強気でいてほしい。一人一人が役割を果たし、1本でも多くシュートを決めきれれば、さらに圧倒的に強くなれると思う。)
For the boys, everything is already decided. As long as they step on the court with strong eyes, there will be no problem.
(男子はやるべきことは決まっている。強い目をしてコートに立てば問題ない。)
Hesitation can ruin everything. In those moments, all you need to do is trust yourself and the people around you.
(迷いがすべてを狂わせる。そんな瞬間こそ、自分と身の回りの人を信じてやるだけでいい。)
It sounds simple, but most people only realize this after they regret something. That’s why I want to set this mindset in advance and guide them toward their goals.
(当たり前のことだが、多くの人は後悔して初めてそれに気づく。だからこそ、あらかじめこの考えをセットして、目標に向かわせてあげたい。)
Yesterday was a day that gave me that kind of confidence and conviction.
(昨日はそんな確信と手応えを与えてくれる日だった。)
