We are in a different era. You hear all about it if you watch any interviews that coaches in professional sports do where they reference the "modern athlete".

Good intro

I think you're a little hard on the participation trophies, everything you do does not, and simply cannot, be "the best". Understanding this is a crucial part of life I believe but I also agree that half-assing through stuff and fiddling around is just not a good approach to anything.

thats not what it means... it just means rewarding everyone just for simply doing something is ridiculous and does not help anyone whatsoever... to each their own on how they want to go about that and celebrate mediocrity, but for me, that does not help anyone achieve anything nor put in any effort to truly achieve something.. its not an "achievement" to just get off your ass and actually do something

Well fair enough I went to a show completely off-ped's last year and it was pretty cringy, I was very flat and not completely shredded, just pretty lean... And I got 2 x 1st place trophy (out of 1 person and out of 2) and 1x 2nd place and yeah this was cringy for sure...

I definitely am against rewarding people just for doing something. I do believe in positive reinforcement and encouragement but at the same time, competition and achievement are something that are needed and necessary for success and not everyone should be rewarded just for doing something

Well yeah it's true that if everyone gets rewarded the same it's actually a form of disrespect to the ones who excell

It's the way of the world these days. Time to go back to old school thinking
