Finally, V.League 2025-2026 also ends its journey with 26 official rounds, lasting from mid-August 2025 to near mid-June 2026. Longer than the season of top European leagues with 38 rounds. Among many joys, there is a sadness and it belongs to Becamex TPHCM.
In the end, they ranked 14th in the rankings. Surely not many people remember that, at the beginning, the team nicknamed "Chelsea Vietnam" occupied the number 1 position, with a 3-0 victory at Hoang Anh Gia Lai stadium. In the last match, against the representative of Pho Nui (now also called Pho Bien), the score was 3-1, but completely meaningless.
So, the beginning is smooth, but the end is not smooth!? That is also the scenario - naked and harsh - that life can draw for anyone, any unit, any organization, if after the starting point are [problems]. Everything, when it starts, has an end. Of course, everyone wants to be convenient when starting. Like the proverb, "Start smooth" belongs to the category of inspiration, of heavenly time, or of a little initial luck. But the latter part, whether "The end is smooth" or not completely depends on management capacity, discipline, endurance, ability to withstand pressure, and sometimes there are also objective factors.
An airplane takes off, opening a restaurant, establishing a company, or small things like going to the market, repairing electricity, planting trees... the ending point is very likely to be unexpected, even if it starts very well. No one wants to fall into the situation of "Head in order, tail out of order", but it is still a profound reminder of the attitude towards life. A piece of advice about knowing how to restrain joy when encountering initial advantages, keeping your head cool so as not to fall into the trap of subjectivity.
When starting to do something, instead of just dreaming of a brilliant vision based on smooth initial steps, prepare your mindset for troublesome sections and arising problems. It's not impossible not to be happy with a good start, but caution, careful calculation of variables and the spirit of willingness to correct mistakes are what pulls the "tail" through the doorway of success.
People only remember how you land, but few people care whether the takeoff is grand or not. As for committing crimes, it's undeniable.
