What makes Mylene Paat an MVP?
It's all about taking everything to heart.
Mylene Paat is making stride after stride in her volleyball career, winning the 2021 Premier Volleyball League Open Conference, being hailed the Best Scorer in the 2021-22 Thailand League, and receiving the award for Most Valuable Player in the 2022 PVL Reinforced Conference.
And all during this time, she has remained humble and cheerful, like that time she scored in a one-on-one against Olympian Prisilla Rivera, the import of the Akari Chargers.
Asked about the key to the rise in her career, the 28-year-old Pangasinense kept it simple, "Lahat kasi ng ginagawa ko at that time, sinasaulo at iniisip ko. Tine-treasure ko 'yung mga nakapaligid sa'kin."
It was at that time that Dindin Santiago-Manabat, who was Paat's teammate in both Nakhon Ratchasima and Chery Tiggo, left the Crossovers for the Chargers.
"Tapos 'yung ginagawa ko, na kahit mapagod ako, kahit na may mga injury ako, iniisip ko na lang na okay lang 'to. At least napapagod ako, hindi ako nabo-bore sa buhay," she added.
She definitely worked on her body. Check out this simple flex Paat posted on Instagram.
It's the same kind of attitude that the opposite spiker wants to maintain as Chery Tiggo looks to improve on its fourth place finish last December.
The team captain is also keen on taking care of her teammates, such as newcomers Ponggay Gaston, Seth Rodriguez, and Bingle Landicho.
She earlier told One Sports that she wants to inspire them not only on the court, but even outside as well. That's probably why she took them out to Enchanted Kingdom before the PVL starts the All-Filipino Conference on February 4.
That's their Mama P.
