Sports are powerful teachers. Sports can give you lessons about leading and following, success and failure, communication, discipline, perseverance, respect, and so much more. Sports can also teach you about arrogance, hazing, bullying, unbalanced priorities, or that cheating is an easy way to get ahead. Taking this attitude into real-life situations can have devastating consequences.
There's an attitude in our society that says, "If you're not cheating, you're not trying." Some say that cheating is just part of being competitive. No way. This is a lie, it's cowardly, and it's dangerous. True competition is decided on a level playing field. A courageous athlete seeks out the best competition for a true measure of his/her skills. An athlete seeks an unfair advantage when they fear that they don't have what it takes to be successful on their own.
What type of athlete are you? What type of athlete do you want to become?
