Why Attitude Matters
While on a temporary tangent about team philosophy, I’d like to talk about keeping a positive attitude.
In this upcoming tournament that Evan and I will be playing in, there will be better teams than us there. Of that, I have no doubt, I’ve seen some play, I’ve played against some before, and won as well as lost.
But I also don’t doubt that ANY given team can win on ANY given day.
Always think positive. I can’t stress this enough. Oliver Lang, arguably the best paintball player in the world, actually said in an interview with Monthly Paintball Newsletter:
“Play every weekend you can afford, keep a positive attitude, don’t get too cocky, and always look to get better by pushing yourself all the time.”
Keeping a positive outlook and shooting for first are key parts of becoming a winning team. If you don’t expect the absolute best from yourself and your teammates, then you aren’t going to win tourneys, you aren’t gonna get into first place. But if you really give it your all, time and time again, you set yourself and your team up for success.
