Playing cards.
If you guys are familiar with the game, ''Dai Dee'' is a game for 4 people holding 13 cards each.
Building, maintaining and developing a cheerleading team is exactly like a game of daidee.
Having four ''di-s'' (read: number 2 which is the largest card in the game) doesn't necessarily mean that you will win the game. If you are complacent and don't monitor how the game is progressing you may actually lose the game before you even have a chance to throw your big cards.
Likewise, not having any ''big cards'' doesn't mean you will lose as well. Having straight royal flushes (5,6,7,8,9,10) of all colours can let you win almost instantly.
Cards from 5-10 are not big cards. Alone by themselves can be over-run by other cards easily. But together they form a royal flush. Which is very substantial.
Be it the card, or the player, it is important to know where you stand .. and how you should go about developing your own potential to the fullest. Developing potential takes time, and a lot of discipline. The way you guys kept the mats in the light of the imminent rain during today's training is really very commendable. Even graham said you all were faster than the army boys. lol.
Still, being complacent is very deadly. Being late for trainings or neglecting your basics is tantamount to losing the chance to throw a good card in the game. Once time is lost, you will never get it back. Throwing a wrong card means your entire game plan must change. This will cost you dearly.
Train hard, take care of each other, and overcome your own barriars. Surpass your own limits. So even at the end of the day if you were to lose the game, you will still marval at how beautifully you played the game with the cards at hand.
We are Wildcards. Create your winning hand.
