Excellence is not merely about defeating others. It is about faithfully developing the abilities God has given you and performing your responsibilities with diligence.

Therefore, pray aggressively, but also prepare diligently.

Ask God for wisdom.

Prepare your skills.

Know the rules.

Remain disciplined.
