NOTE

Embrace Joy and Gratitude to Achieve Greatness

A remarkable performance in speed skating can arise not only from talent but also from a deep appreciation for the sport and gratitude for support received. This was demonstrated when an athlete approached a crucial race with the intention to express joy and love for the sport rather than merely striving for personal records. This mindset of joy led to winning an Olympic gold medal and breaking records, despite previous setbacks and fierce competition. The athlete's genuine engagement and emotional connection to the sport served as a powerful reminder of the strong link between mind and body, illustrating that success often follows when one radiates positivity and gratitude.
