NO TYPE A, not me!

I knew a certain someone who blew everyone away one day by being, suddenly, a "blue streak" up

the line, blasting past all the other (mostly opposing team) players, in full winning control of the ball.

Don't even remember the outcome, I just KNEW that I'd had that exact same feeling years before -- the

big revelation, like Prometheus stealing fire - that I could actually WIN, now, if I just kept "THIS,"

whatever the heck it was, going for a few more blessed seconds, if I saw it through.... I've never been a

type A. I've been told, in fact, "You're not aggressive enough" by someone I worked for; but, only

when playing the games I have real passion for, particularly soccer, did my strikingly passionate

competitive spirit take OVER, and those have always been my best remembered moments. And it IS

about confidence, it's that "I absolutely LOVE this!!!" feeling, but RIGHT NOW this moment. And

until that happened to me the first time ever, I had no idea how wonderful is the feeling of winning.
