-Delile
Yini edingekayo ukuze kube okungcono kakhulu? Kwinkanyezi yebhola likanobhutshuzwayo uCarli Lloyd - indondo yegolide yama-Olimpiki amahlandla amabili owaba yiqhawe laseMelika kuleli hlobo ngesikhathi ehambisa iqembu lebhola likazwelonke labesifazane laseMelika ekuphumeleleni kwabo iNdebe Yomhlaba yokuqala kusukela ngo-1999 - kulula: uhlelo olucace bha lweminyaka eyi-17. Eqinisweni, lo oneminyaka engu-33 ubudala uveze uhlelo engqungqutheleni yesithupha yaminyaka yonke ye-espnW Women + Sports Summit kule nyanga. Futhi ngokusobala, lelo qhinga lesigqoko elinqobe iNdebe Yomhlaba? Yebo, lokho kwakulungile ingxenye wecebo lokuphathwa komhlaba ngo-2020. (Ngokuzimisela.)
Kepha njengoba kunjalo kubantu abaningi abaphumelele e-uber, uLloyd akayedwa empumelelweni yakhe: Umqeqeshi wakhe, uJames Galanis, naye udlala indima enkulu. Ku-2003, wanikeza ukuqeqesha u-Lloyd-owayengumdlali ongekho esimweni owayesikwe eqenjini lase-U.S. Under-21 mahhala (wayengenayo imali). Kungani? Wabona amandla amakhulu: "Nangu umdlali owayenamakhono athuthukile, futhi uma ngingavele ngilungise izindawo ezimbalwa, ngingahle ngibe nomdlali omkhulu ezandleni zami," kusho uGalanis. (I-Ahem, i-USWNT Team Circuit Workout akuyona ihlaya.)
Futhi iminyaka yokusebenza kanzima ... kahle, kuyasebenza. "Akazange athathe ubuthakathaka bakhe abuthuthukise. Wabuguqula waba ngamandla akhe. Yingakho uCarli Lloyd enguCarli Lloyd," usho njalo.
Ngakho-ke le duo ye-dyanmic ikwenze kanjani? Futhi yini abasebenza kuyo eminyakeni emihlanu edlule yohlelo? Sibambe uLloyd noGalanis ngezimfihlo zabo. Intshontshe futhi nawe ungaba isinyathelo esisodwa esiseduze nempumelelo enkulu.
Hlala Emzuzwini
"UJames wayenecebo elikhulu futhi wayezongiphuza kancane kancane engangidinga ukugxila kukho ngaleso sikhathi," kusho uLloyd ngokuqeqeshwa kwakhe. "Angikaze ngibheke phambili kakhulu ngoba uma ubheka njalo imiphumela yokuphela, uvame ukungazinaki lezo zingxenye ezibalulekile eziphakathi. Khohlwa iNdebe Yomhlaba kanye nama-Olimpiki. Wangenza ngahlala okwamanje."
Kuthathe Kancane
“Siqale ukwakha kancane kancane ngaphandle nangaphandle kwenkundla,” kusho uLloyd. Isigaba sokuqala, ebesihlanganisa uLloyd ukwenza iqembu lesizwe nokushaya igoli lokuwina umdlalo kuma-Olimpiki Asehlobo ngo-2008, kuthathe iminyaka emihlanu ukuqeda. Isigaba sesibili, obekufanele sithole indawo yokuqala engaguquki eqenjini bese sishaya amagoli amabili wokuwina umdlalo kuma-Olimpiki asehlobo ka-2012, sithathe amanye amane. "Isigaba sesithathu besimayelana nokuthatha izintambo futhi ngizihlukanise nabo bonke abanye abantu," kusho u-Lloyd, enezela: "Bekuzophela ngemuva kwama-Olympics Asehlobo ka-2016, kodwa sinomuzwa wokuthi sikuzuzile lokho kusasele unyaka, ngakho manje siyahamba. esigabeni sesine. "
Khulisa i-Bar
"Okokuqala, uJames wayedinga ukubona ukuthi ngangizimisele yini ukwenza izinto ezinjengokudla okungcono, ukunakekela umzimba wami ngaphandle kwenkundla, nokuqhubeka nokuzithathela izinyathelo, ngingedwa," kusho uLloyd. (Wayenjalo.) "Ulokhu ephakamisa izinga, okwenza ukuqeqeshwa kube nzima kimi. Ukuphela kwendlela engizokhula ngayo njengomuntu nomdlali uma engenza ngingakhululeki," usho kanje. Eqinisweni, waze wavuma ku-espnW Summit ukuthi ukuzilolonga kwakhe kumfikisela eqophelweni lokukhala okungenani kanye ngesonto, kodwa uyazi ukuthi angakwazi. (Uke uzibuze ukuthi kungani sikhala?)
Chitha Indawo Yakho Yokududuza
Kulungile-uGalanis uyazi ukuthi angamsunduza kangakanani uLloyd. Ukujima okukhulu kwasekuseni kwakuvame ukwenza imilenze yakhe ibe njengoJello futhi kumshiya ezibuza, ekhungathekile, ukuthi angashwiba kanjani ukujima kwesibili ngaleyontambama. Kodwa ngandlela thize wayehlale ezithola ebhekana nokungakhululeki kulezi zinsuku ezimbili waze wafunda ikhono elisha elinzima futhi ekugcineni waqala ukulisebenzisa emidlalweni. Lapho nje uGalanis embona ezikhululela ngokunyakaza okunenselelo enkulu, wayezomkhipha endaweni yakhe yokunethezeka futhi ngomunye umjolo obonakala ungenakwenzeka. (Iqiniso elijabulisayo: ULloyd akakaphindanga ukuzivocavoca okulodwa eminyakeni eyi-12!)
Qeqesha Njenge-Underdog
"Kumnandi impela ukuba nomuntu ongangisunduza ngaphesheya kwemingcele," kusho uLloyd ngecebo eliyingqayizivele lomqeqeshi wakhe. "Kunale ndatshana eqhubekayo yokuqhubeka nokuziqeqesha njengomuntu ongaphansi, noma ngabe ngifeze ini. Ukuze ufike esicongweni futhi ube ngophambili kunabo bonke, kufanele uqhubeke." Iminyaka emihlanu ezayo kuzogxilwa kuyona ekuhlaselweni kowesithathu wokugcina. "Ngingaba ngcono ekudutshulweni. Ngingaba ngcono emoyeni. Ngingaba ngcono ngokudlala ngamabhola. Okuhle impela ukuthi ngiqede njengompetha weNdebe Yomhlaba, kodwa manje sengibuyele ekuziqeqesheni njengami umdlali we-rec."
Gubha Impumelelo Yakho
Ungakhathazeki-IGalisan nayo iyazi ukuthi ingayigubha kanjani impumelelo endleleni. Nakuba impendulo ka-Lloyd emizuzwini engu-45 nje ethathe isicoco esihlonishwayo yathi, "Siziqeqesha nini futhi?", u-Galanis (okuyiqiniso ukuthi umgxeki wakhe onzima) umtshele ukuthi ajabulele ukunqoba. Ngemuva kwakho konke, inhloso yakhe yama-Olimpiki ka-2016 eRio ukuthatha indondo yegolide yama-Olimpiki yesithathu-nangeNdebe Yomhlaba elandelayo ngo-2019, ukushaya amagoli amahlanu emdlalweni. Singasho ukuthi intombazane ithole i-R & R encane.
