The ability to achieve ends is associated with the certainty that we will obtain them. As important as power is to believe that we can achieve it. If you do not believe in yourself you will not be able to perform properly.
Eric Cantona was one of the great French players who retired from his selection in 1997. The reason? An injury? Age? No. The reason was different.
Eric had lost the confidence of being able to play a World Cup. Summoned at the end of the 1980s, just before the World Cup in Italy 1990, I was unable to participate in the event due to its "inexperience". For the next World Cup, in the United States, also could not play because his selection did not qualify.
That way, Eric began to think that he would never attend a World Cup. He stopped believing in that possibility and said to hang the chimpunes, just a year before his selection won the World Cup playing locally.
What a dilemma, sooner or later we face the absence of love. Who prepares for this? No one. We believe he will always be waiting for us, what a lie; that same love for which we laugh, one day makes us cry. What to do? Enjoy it while you have it and do not forget yourself, so that when love leaves, stay with you.
