Acquire Trophies by Hard Work and Practice
Trophies are meant to be looked at. They come in all shapes and
sizes. This quality of "lookability" is what prompts people to
talk of trophy wives or husbands. But there are many ways to
acquire trophies. Most of the time, they are given as a prize, a
physical reminder of some triumph. How can one fill that trophy
room at home? A few simple tips.
One of the best ways to earn trophies is to excel at something.
Hard work and practice can net many trophies in a certain area.
The musically inclined use talent and hours of practice to earn
trophies at recitals and competition. Athletes hone their skills
to win competitions in everything from basketball tournaments to
bowling league championships. Amateur sports are a great way to
acquire trophies.
Hunting is another trophy sport. While this sport does require
practice and skill, acquiring trophies is not dependent upon how
one does against direct competition. It only requires that,
after you obtain the necessary permits, you successfully shoot
and kill an animal. In order to have
displayable animal
trophies, however, one must be careful not to ruin the animal by
using too many bullets or by shooting the animal in the wrong
place.
Another way to acquire trophies involves not so much skill as
ingenuity. By locating quirky contests, one can earn trophies by
doing stunts, or by having a little known and sometimes 'gross'
skill. This also applies to those who are mediocre at obscure
things. By entering a competition that may not be well-known or
popular, one can be mediocre and still take home a third or
fourth place trophy.
Many people like to have trophies as a way to be physically
reminded of accomplishments, and show to their friends. Some
people just enjoy the thrill of the chase. No matter why one
does it, it can be easy and fun to fill up one's trophy room.
