A Good Artice for sport enthusiast…
As a sports enthusiast, isn’t anger god because it helps you win the game? is sports a good way to release anger?
Sports is a socially accepted way of venting anger. However, it doesn’t cure the anger, it only temporarily releases the physical energy accompanying anger, we are still avoiding the real problem, which is our disturbing emotion and misconceptions regarding a situation.
Anger may help u win the game, but is tat beneficial? is it worthwhile to reinforce negaive characteristic just to get a trophy? the danger in sports is making the ” yours and them” too concrete. ” my team must win. We have to fight and beat the enemy”.
but let’s step back for a moment. Why should we win and the otehr team lose? the only reason is “my team is the best because it’s mine.” The otehr team feels teh same way. Who is right? competition based on such self-centredness isn’t productive bacause it breeds anger and jealousy.
On the other hand, we can concentrate on he process of playing the game, not only on the goal of winning. In this case, we will enjoy the physical excercise, thr camaraderie and the team spirit, whether we win or lose. Psychologcally, this attitude brings more happiness..
