00:00Hi, Assalamualaikum. I'm Ariana Nurdania Binti Muhammad Zari.
00:04You can call me Ariana.
00:06I'm from Kuala Lumpur.
00:08I'm 19 years old.
00:10I'm a national archery champion.
00:22For me, the Olympics is...
00:26I never thought I would be worthy of it this soon.
00:31I can say that the Olympics is a very big event for me.
00:43A lot of people are competing there.
00:46The set-up is very grand.
00:49I don't take it as an ordinary event.
00:51Muhammad Zari, Ariana of Malaysia.
00:54To win this, and of course, secure her country an Olympic spot in Paris.
01:01I still have a lot of things to improve and improve.
01:05Although I'm starting to learn how to control my handling.
01:10But like I said, there are still a lot of things that I need to improve.
01:15And I think I need to strengthen my mentality.
01:19And learn to adapt to the situation.
01:22Because I rarely go to international games.
01:27So I think my mentality is a big factor that I need to prepare for.
01:39Maybe I'm nervous to bring my country's name out there.
01:43But I'm not nervous to compete with people who are world champions.
01:49Because I'm the type of person who doesn't know a lot of people.
01:54Maybe it's a bit weird for some people.
01:56But I'm the type of person who doesn't know a lot of people when I go to international games.
02:00So my target when I go to international games is just that...
02:04I want to do my best.
02:08I want to score a goal that I'm satisfied with.
02:11And when I play in the Olympic round...
02:14I know that I won't expect more if I compete against the top players.
02:18But I want to go there for my own satisfaction.
02:21If I feel satisfied with my performance, that's enough for me.
02:29Everyone has their own life experience.
02:32So what I learned from my journey so far is that...
02:37Like I said earlier, age is just a number.
02:43It doesn't matter how old you are.
02:46No matter how big your dreams are, even if you're still young...
02:49Don't give up.
02:51You have to believe in yourself.
02:54And just believe in yourself.
02:56Because nothing is impossible for you.
