Super Bowl LII was a great example of what can happen when you focus and believe in your team. The Philadelphia Eagles won against the New England Patriots. Although it was a ‘back and forth’ game, the underdogs managed to come out on top.
The Patriots have won many Super Bowls with their quarterback, who is considered by most to be the best quarterback to ever play. Tom Brady has an instant reputation for bringing his team from behind to win many games. He is great at what he does and he puts a lot of time and effort into his game. After all, that’s what the ‘greats’ do.
The Eagles had never won a Super Bowl. Their quarterback, Nick Foles, was a backup quarterback after the starter quarterback was injured late in the season. The first thought from many sports fans was, “A back-up quarterback can not beat Tom Brady – how silly is that?” All odds were against Nick Foles, who confessed he almost quit three years ago. Well, Nick did the unthinkable.
The Eagles won the game and shocked a lot of people. According to them, no one can beat Tom Brady, it won’t happen, so stop dreaming. It happened that night. A back up quarterback, along with his devoted team, won against the unbeatable Tom Brady and the Patriots.
It can happen. This is a classic example of the underdog never giving up. You can beat the greats at what they do so well, but you must believe and persevere. Don’t ever count anyone out just because they haven’t played on your level. There is always someone grinding to beat the best.
Even though it seems no one is noticing your hard work, keep at it. You don’t do it for anyone to notice – you do it for YOU. Just like in this Super Bowl, everyone will notice when it’s your time. Drink some water and keep going.
