For Pernille Harder, there is something that must be fulfilled before she ends her career
Pernille Harder is approaching 150 games for the Danish women's national football team.
Pernille Harder clearly remembers how nervous she was.
How the team manager tried to calm her down on a walk, telling her to just enjoy the game, and what she thought of the team manager's words:
- Well, I thought. I will probably try that, but I was extremely nervous.
But as soon as she was on the field, the nervousness disappeared. Just 16 years old, she scored a hat-trick on her debut in Denmark's 15-0 win over Georgia in 2009.
On Tuesday evening, Pernille Harder can complete 150 international matches when Denmark faces an important European Championship qualifier against Belgium at the Viborg Stadium.
- That says something about how long I have actually been in the national team. Obviously, there's a pride in that for me.
For Pernille Harder, there is something that is important for her to be able to sign when she one day chooses to end her career.
A changing role
Almost from the beginning, a great responsibility rested on Pernille Harder's shoulders, and already at the age of 23 she was appointed captain of the national team.
- It was my action on the pitch that made me captain then. I have developed the role of captain off the pitch over the years, says Pernille Harder.
- I have become wiser about ups and downs because I have been through it all.
- Now I am in a position where I can understand what it is that others are going through. When you can understand it, it is clear that it is significantly easier to help.
Because although Pernille Harder has always had a strong mentality, there was a time in her career when she was overwhelmed and had to change a particular pattern in her behavior.
The showdown with a pattern
There was no time to stop and digest. As soon as she had achieved something, she had to achieve something new. There was no peace.
- When I became Europe's best, I thought 'yes, that was great', but now I also have to move on, instead of being in it and just patting myself on the back. I was very striving in that I wanted something all the time.
The time when it first dawned on her that she had to change her behavior was in connection with the move to the big club Chelsea.
- There were automatically some expectations because I had become Europe's best for the second time, and I had been sold as the most expensive female footballer in the world.
Therefore, she herself sought out a teacher in mindfulness, a method to strengthen her mental health through meditation, among other things, which helped her through the period, and which she has also drawn on during the past year and a half with injuries.
- I just needed to learn to be in the present, regardless of what is happening around me, says Pernille Harder and acknowledges that it is easier said than done.
- But it is something that I train on all the time. Because it's still not something I've mastered at all.
The important landmark
A certain satisfaction she may agree to acknowledge that she has after all, when she looks back at her 150 matches for the national team, her eight hat-tricks and her titles as Europe's - and the world's - best female footballer.
- But I don't want to say that I have reached a point of saturation, interjects Pernille Harder.
- Of course there is satisfaction in relation to what I have achieved. But it's more because it gives me some kind of peace. That doesn't mean I don't want more than that.
- It could be great to experience one more EC and WC, and then we'll have to see how old I feel after the final rounds.
- As long as I think it's fun, as long as my body thinks it's fun, then I want to keep going. So it's not like I've set an end date, says Pernille Harder.
But there is still something that is important for her to know when the day comes and the end of her career becomes a reality.
- When one day I stop, it is important for me to know that I have done everything I could to become as skilled as possible and win as much as possible.

Currently Reading - #JOMPbpc
What Moves the Dead by T. Kingfisher
I love Kingfisher's writing style. It's very comforting in an odd way; almost like the story is coming from a reliable friend. Full of personality and quirky thoughts from the purposefully flawed main character.
I hope to read all of T. Kingfisher's books.

This weeks’ featured fic is Nothing I Do (better than revenge) by IMaketheMonsters or @caffeine-catastrophe on tumblr. It’s a Juke fic with an evil Carrie and Nick who you will love to hate, and it’s so SO funny. Julie has an extremely embarrassing incident happen to her at school and Luke, who she hardly knows other than he’s the lead singer for up-and-coming rock band Sunset Curve and is also in her biology class, ends up coming to her rescue.
The Anti-Valentine's Day Romantic Comedy!AU that no one asked for with the tag line…
Even cynics fall in love.
