Opponent

Your opponent, in the end, is never really the player on the other side of the net, or the swimmer in the next lane, or the team on the other side of the field...your opponent is yourself, your negative internal voices, your level of determination.

My power animal is the turtle. Who would guess that a turtle that is big and somewhat awkward on land is such a effortless swimmer. Or that the turtle won the race against the faster rabbit because the turtle was determined to keep its steady pace!
