How Being A Sports’ Fan Can Solve Life’s Problems
Being disinterested in sport limits you from understanding how it can grow your life.
Our eyes see whatever they want to see.
And when you`re very young if you’re exposed to certain things you`re more than likely going to appreciate one of them. Even if you don’t there’s something from your experiences that will push you towards another interesting area of what you’ve come to know.
That’s why our parents and the environment where we grow up are so important.
Because many times, you`re not going to have any interest in something unless you`re exposed to it in the first place. And when you’re growing up your brain’s curiosity is very strong and whatever it sees it will soon decide if it likes it or not.
So if you don’t grow up in a sporting environment then you’re going to find it tricky to become a sportsperson. Of course, it’s not impossible but it’s highly improbable. Because sports people need to hone their skills when they are young and develop their fitness and bodies towards how their sport needs them to be.
And if you don’t play sport but are interested in it this attention to the sport is developed when you are growing up.
Because when sports fans talk about the sport they usually have memories of when their team or favorite player played or contested their sport in a high-pressure situation.
Does that mean that older teens or adults can’t develop an interest in sport if they’ve not been exposed to it when they were growing up?
Or course they can.
But their environment around them must change to include deep exposure to the sport that they now follow. And they must be aligned with people who have the same interests too.
Even when people play sport most of them stop playing by a certain age. If someone started playing sports as a child they often give it up by their mid to late teen years. Some do this because they’re interested in concentrating their time more on their school work as they`re getting older and realize they have to concentrate on getting good grades and marks from their final exams before they go out in the adult world.
Others change friends and finish a sport to get away from one group of people so they can trade time with another group of people instead.
Some also realize they’ve reached their peak in that sport and their ability is limited so they lose interest in competing later on in life.
Then some play their sports well into adulthood. But even then they hit a certain age where their twenties and thirties pass and they want to change lanes in life. Often this may involve settling down and moving in with a partner and time spent playing sports is compromised.
Others though see sport early on and immediately avoid it because they don’t like it.
They may find it too competitive and don’t fancy themselves as being competitors or they may not be attracted to the hard work that playing sport demands. Or they may not be willing to exercise because some people are very lazy even though they may not appear overweight. They may also be shy and unwilling to communicate enough with others to learn the skills of a game or become a part of a team.
These are only a few reasons for many people not having an interest in sports.
But even those reasons can be re-addressed as someone grows up.
They find that they feel more agitated or frustrated in life and sport can be a great place to positively funnel that energy. Often when people are growing up as their bodies change and they have more independence they may want to express things through sports.
As our bodies naturally alter throughout life playing sports can be a healthy choice as it involves keeping fit and losing weight. And it can help to motivate people to shape their goals in life too.
And of course, being involved in sport is a great way to mix with others and to make new friends. By competing together and working for the same outcome there is mutual respect for everyone that plays together. Although you may not be friends with everyone on the team being involved with people and doing things together for the sake of a team is character building and lends itself to understanding other types of people in all areas of life outside of sports.
So when it’s broken down being involved in sports is investing time with people.
The more time you spend in sport the more people you meet through it. And the more effort you put into it all the deeper relationships you build.
Sure the sport has its technical demands and you need to practice it to be good and remain competitive with it but to sustain it all you must be able to connect with the people involved because even the individual sports athlete needs someone to support them along their way.
