[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You never want to be the best on your team. If you are your playing at too low of a level. You only get better playing with better players. Confidence should never be gained from success against lesser opponents. You're supposed to be better than them. True confidence is gained when you succeed at a higher level than you are accustomed to.[/quote] Agree. If you're the best player on the field, you're on the wrong field. Being in the bottom third of a team is exactly where you want to be for Super Y in most scenarios. Golden opportunity to push himself to get better and pick up the speed of his game. We have to stop expecting our kids to always be frontrunners. There are a handful of kids who truly fit that mold and many of them will either burn out or move on to another sport. Be content with the middle of the pack. Life is a marathon, not a sprint.[/quote] Being content with being in the middle of the pack is what prevents you from being YOUR very best. When we say we want the very best for our kids and then turn around and teach them to be content with being in the middle is poor parenting. Im not saying your kid should be the next Messi just the best THEM they can be. This mentality translates to other parts of life outside of soccer. If I could give your kid advice. I would tell them give your best effort at EVERYTHING you do. You might not see the results today but you will in the future. Develop great habits today and you will find success in the future.[/quote] Everyone has a different definition of success. Being the best at something is not what everyone aspires to. To some success is the journey not the result. Quality of relationships, self contentment, quality of life and mind. Achievement and success are your own to define.[/quote]
