More & more questions :)

As you may already know,
I've established my topic for my semester-long research: Are athletes more resilient than non-athletes, when overcoming adversary.  Now, it's very general, but I'll slowly get deeper into the topic.  I'm so curious!  I've been an athlete since I can walk, and I've realized how much it has helped me in making decisions, controlling emotions, etc.  I often question, is it the challenges athletes are faced with that promote the development of resilience, or the support of a team/coach that gives people hope?  As an athlete, I'm constantly receieving inspirational lectures from ALL my coaches and people need it! Speaking for myself, all my coaches have inspired me some way or another, and without their awareness, they have been a part of my triumph in an obstacle.  Having a .350 batting average isn't going to get you to Graduate school or make you a better person, but the challenges that come with that .350 batting average will teach you useful values in life.  I'm off to do more research! Be back soon! =)
