Sukma Mascot = RM50, Swimmer Gratitude = Priceless

I came across this post in my Facebook page recently:


I sent four swimmers from PST to represent the State of Penang in the recent Sukma Games. From the first day they attended centralized training with another coach (from China), till the day they departed for Sukma on 6th June, not one of them said "Thank You" to me for bringing them to the level that they are today

It's not that I crave gratitude, but a little less whining and less griping would be nice. Being conceited and having a swollen-head isn't nice.

We may have gone through some rough times, but we have gone through some good times too. And it's a combination of these good and bad times that has brought us all to where we are today.

Coach Peh has the right formula. His swimmers seem to love him no matter what. I hope to learn Coach Peh's formula some day.
