Do you hate it when the interviewer goes after the second place person and asks them how it feels to lose the race? Do you always cheer for the underdog, the team not expected to win? Are your favourite movies the one where the underdog prevails? Today is the day to salute all of the underdogs and unsung heroes.
An underdog is a person or group who is expected to lose. However, sometimes they pull off the unexpected. Isn’t that what life is like for most of us?
So here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Underdog Day:
Who are the underdogs in your workplace, family or community who could use a little extra encouragement or know that someone is in their corner? Go out and be their cheerleader.
Are you letting your fear of not winning, stopping you from even being a part of the game?
Most of the underdogs that we celebrate in our society and in our movies have a few things in common. They don’t throw in the towel just because they aren’t expected to win. They give it their all until the very end.
When my son was just starting out in hockey, they use to rotate the goalies. His team was badly beat by one particular team. On the next re-match, my son was to be the goalie. He donned his gear and was determined to stop the pucks that came his way. In the end, they lost by 10 goals. I was fully prepared to go into the dressing room and provide my motherly comfort and ‘you’ll get them next time’ speech. To my great surprise, my son’s first comment, was “Well at least we didn’t lose by 15 like the last time”.
Improvement is improvement and who knows what the outcome will be the next time….good lesson for all of us.
