This was in an article on extra innings softball site that had me thinking about my daughter's competitiveness.
"HOW DO YOU THINK THE PLAYERS FEEL ABOUT LAST YEAR?
Coach Nelson: Defeat! This team has been so successful because they feel the defeat that others don’t. It’s burns them inside knowing they were so close but yet so far."
My DD's Tournament results so far this year.. 1st place, 3rd place and recently a 2nd place finish.
She wouldn't even pose with the 2nd place trophy after the game. She was extremely disappointed and actually down right furious.
Can you be too competitive?
I think it's a fine line that has both pluses and minuses. I suppose if it motivates her more it can't be all bad.
How competitive are your DD's?
