T Minus

According to Brave AI:

T-Minus Origins: Countdown to Discovery

T-minus is a term coined by NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) to denote the countdown to a rocket launch or a specific event. The “T” in T-minus stands for “time,” indicating the precise moment when the launch is expected to occur.

According to NASA, the term T-minus was created to simplify the countdown process and provide a clear understanding of the time remaining before liftoff. It was first used in the early 1960s, during the height of the space race, and has since become an integral part of NASA’s launch procedures and public communications.

Life has a lot of "T Minus" situations. Countdown to tryouts, to the beginning of school, to starting a new job, to exiting one. 

In the Navy, someone would have a month to discharge and say, "I can stand on my head that long." Anticipation.

Today is a big day for competitors, battling to add value for MVB and  themselves on the PlayDay at the Middle School. 

Have fun. Play with joy. Bring your best self. 

If you're reading this on Saturday, it's T minus four days to opening day of the 2024 campaign.   

Champions don’t focus on competing with an opponent.
Champions compete to be better today than they were yesterday.
There is a need to improve in defeat or victory-even in the smallest way.
