But I disagree that people can't learn how to deal with pressure and anxiety as they experience it more.<br /><br />For example, many people are terrified of public speaking. Inherently, it is a very public affair which opens people up to criticism, so they may feel anxiety or stage fright before they speak, hurting their performance. However, the more time you spend in front of people, the more comfortable you get and learn how to harness those emotions and so they don't cripple your message. You're the same you, but you have uses past failing to better your current self.Paul Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944582760601228068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11175154.post-66047021193270546642009-11-05T11:05:20.007-05:002009-11-05T11:05:20.007-05:00USC won back-2-back national titles in 03-04 and 0...USC won back-2-back national titles in 03-04 and 04-05.

You summed up how I felt perfectly.<br /><br />I'd also add that it would have been really tough for me to see the Phillies win 2 titles back to back when our Braves could only manage 1 in 14 trips to the postseason. That may be petty, and the Marlins may have already done just that, but that's how I felt.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11175154.post-18163636845894201242009-11-05T09:58:32.995-05:002009-11-05T09:58:32.995-05:00The Florida Gators repeated as college basketball ...The Florida Gators repeated as college basketball champions in 2006-2007.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
