Journal: Emotions

Do not simply answer yes or no, but answer the question more effectively. If you are not currently on an athletic team or coaching, use your most recent team/athletic experience when you answer questions that relate to your current experience. You need to include both the questions and your answers when you submit the assignment; do not leave the questions out. The completed assignment for the module should be 1 – 2 pages.
answer the following questions:
1. What are the most dangerous, unhelpful emotions to athletes/teams? Why are they the most dangerous?
2. Once you recognize an emotion that hurts performance, what should you do to create an environment
where you can exhibit emotions that help performance?
3. What actions that you exhibit as a coach can create the emotions that produce joy and exhilaration or
complacency and redundancy?
4. Was there ever a time that you felt ignored by your coach, based on your performance during an athletic
contest?
