I do all I can to build confidence in my players, but on the flip side I am also brutally honest. I don't pump them full of sunshine just to make them feel good. But I will go out of my way to stay positive even in the face of failure. We focus on the little things and find victories where we can. If you are afraid to fail, you will never succeed. I try to get my players to the point where they constantly strive for success, but are not afraid to fail. As they say at SC, "Do not be a flat squirrel!"
