Thought for December (Try #1)

Okay, this will be our first debate...

Is one's physical capabilities (as in sports, or physical health) based off one's confidence, whether they believe they can perform well physically, or off of pure luck, heriditary gifts, and random talent?

RC's Thought-

I believe one's physical capabilities have to do with the person's confidence. If a person has low self-esteem and believes deep down inside they can't do anything and that they are worthless, then they can't do anything. But if a person believes that they may be able to perform, then, most likely they can. It is all in your head.

Tomatoeworms "counterthought"-

I believe ones physical abilities depend on practice rather than just good luck charms, although confidence may contribute to your strengths during physical works. This whole conversation may get into another debate if you get over-confident in luck, which would then fall under the category of confidence and allow one to be more physically fit.

I, on the other hand, have Arthritus(JAS), Crones(IBD), and other disabilities(near sightedness and cross-bite) which "discourage" me in a way when I am doing physical exercises. Therefore, if disabilties can bring down ones confidence during physical exercise, it is the same vise versa. Disabilities "discourage" someone, while confidence can "encourage" someone.

So if luck cannot encourage someone, does that mean bad luck can't discourage someone? I think this blog may be more fun with more people, but that is just my opinion.
