Competitive sport teaches us how to succeed. Winning is everything.

According to many people, competitive sports are very stressful, hard… Even unnatural! Because of this, many people don’t like that type of lifestyle. However, there are other faces, like the image and the feelings which you feel when you are playing the sport which you practice every day.

Most of the people say: “Success is luck”. That type of answer is extremely wrong because when you have luck, is because you are working hard and that work make you have more opportunities to succeed. There was a philosopher that said: “The success is made by 1% inspirations (luck) and 99% expiration (hard-work)”. Even people still believe that they aren’t succeeding because they don’t have luck. In the world of sport, the best players say that if you want to have success in your live as a sport player, you have to pay all the prize of the success then the reward is bigger than the price. If you practise the sport that you love hard, you will succeed yes or yes, I promise you.

On the other hand, the extreme competitiveness can hurt yourself, psychological and physical. In the TV all the sport-elite have nice character. However, that is not the truth. The truth in most of the cases are quite different between the TV and the reality. First, when they don’t win they are very angry because we are talking about people that are exceedingly hard with themselves. In a few case it can change your character and become very aggressive with the others because the thing: “less friends = less competition”. Second, the high level of competition takes them many time of their lives and of course, private life. They lose friend, important family events (like weddings) and time to themselves. In many cases they have personal crisis. Nonetheless, they are enjoying every day the sport that they love.

To sum up, it is true that competitive sport teaches you how to succeed, but succeed have many faces that most of the people don’t see and they are very important to succeed. Notwithstanding, success depends on what are you going to pay to get it.
