“Wrestling is a one-on-one experience and if something goes wrong you can't point a finger and blame somebody else. What you do is up to you. And yet it's a team sport, because whether your team wins or loses is a result of the cumulative effect of the matches. Wrestling is a great confidence builder because it's not all about strength. You have to use your balance and skill and technique and if you do, you can overcome a lot of muscle and bulk guys, and even those who have natural ability. Basically, you can out-technique an opponent.” IfsUseGuyWinningSportsLosesNaturalAbilityResultsTeamEffectsBalanceSkillsOvercomingBlameFingersTechniqueOpponentsMusclesWrestlingUp To YouBuilderWin Or LoseSports TeamOne On OneCumulativeNatural AbilityGreat Confidence Author:Dennis Hastert
