Inter won the Scudetto, many say that its manager, Antonio Conte alone is worth 10 points in the standings. Let’s try to describe the characteristics of his winning mentality.
When Antonio Conte states that “only in Italy we are fixed on the play schema. Football evolves, it depends on how you attack, on what kind of pressure you apply”; he talks of the need to have determination.
The successful person, whatever is his/her field of action, shows a fierce determination in two ways:
- extraordinary flexibility and ability to work
- deep awareness of what he/she really wants
On the contrary, today we tend to emphasize more the value of talent, thus reducing the relevance of every other aspect.
Talent + Effort = Skill
Talent emphasizes how quickly you learn when you work hard.
Skill + Effort = Success
Success is what happens when the skills are used with effort.
So, to be successful you need skills and commitment at the highest level and the play schema must support this approach.
