The Extra Discretionary Effort
In my match at the pitch today in front of thre Washington Monument I had a realization. We play White Jersey's versus Dark Jersey. The White Jersey team consists of the lower skill level player but the team that hustles more. I probably epitomize that giving it all you got as much as anyone out there but I also figured out that you have to stay disciplined about the timing of that discretionary effort. You can't go all out at once and burn out. You have to be disciplined( i.e. not chasing the ball, playing your position) about maintaining focus and continuing to put the gas pedal down to succeed. In the end it might be that extra five percent of discretionary effort that decides the outcome of the match or applied to a larger context your health and your life.
