  5. I agree that positive coaching is good because people don't feel as bad when they do come up a little short. However I think that for some mistakes there is no way to sugarcoat it, for some things I think that there is a right and wrong. Nice job though, I like your perspective and experiences that you brought into your talk.

  6. Daniel, I think positive affermation is really important mainly in young people. I am very optomistic and I like how being positive can make a big difference in the way we look at things. Great job!

  7. I agree with a lot of what you said. I have a tumbling coah that seriously enjoys making me angry. For some reason he thinks that will make me better, but it doesnt. I puts me in a horrible mood and that last thing i want to do is tumble. I think your presentation was meaningful and i enjoyed listening to it! Good Job!

  9. I like how you point out how failure can be a step on the way to success. It seems so obvious in society, but so many people feel like they have a right to tell you who you should be and how you are never great. This also makes me wonder how you can begin to find that seed inourselves. Do we find it in ourselves, or must it ome from a nurturing coach, parent or teacher.

  10. I completly agree witht his topic. People say that it makes them play better if they are being yelled at. I personally think that i need honest and calm advice. Great Job!

  13. I totally agree with you, I think that all of us at some point in our lives have experienced a negative coach. I don't think that always makes them a bad person or coach, but i think that positive thinking and praise is so much better than constant criticism. Great presentation!!

  14. I like how you point out something that is wronge and a way to counter it, such as positive thinking can turn negative thought into a motivator, that is very interesting! You did an amazing job and nice personal example (soccer rocks)!
