Get the Reverse bolton mug.Some people make it their life's mission to move them. Does Lindsay or Jasper riding in to town on a high horse cause most people to start looking over their shoulders, or do they say Oh, that's just Lindsay or Jasper riding in?
It turned out the one saying he/she could move mountains wasn't really someone of unlimited power and toughness, his name was Jasper, and her name was Lindsay. They lived next door to you as kids.

Get the Mountains mug.If you're a quarterback, and you hear an announcer saying something about you flying through the air like Superman, hopefully you already have enough life experience to know he's trying to make fun of you and not comment on what a great job you were doing, even if you're young.

Get the Quarterback mug.Something a lot of people did not know about until they took a karate class or played a team sport in school, or from classes and not from home.
The girl first found out about discipline from a class at school and thought she knew how to make life help for people around her when really all she did was make life a weak purgatory with a lack of any physical pain.

Get the Discipline mug.Goliath was described as a giant, but mobsters and kings are sometimes described as giants even though they're short. There are many short guys with a similar disposition to Goliath, and if you didn't take the bible literally, you wouldn't rule out the possibility that Goliath is more like the short guy you went to school with or worked with.
If a short guy who was a lot like Goliath in disposition had written the story of David and Goliath, wouldn't he want people to think Goliath was 9 feet tall (which would be record breaking for a human being)?

Get the Goliath mug.It's not a realistic expectation to expect a first year team to go out and win every game. Underconfidence is when if you think you'll win about 3 games, you end up winning about 3 games, even though you had the ability to do what you didn't think you would do. The point is not to win games, it's not to start a habit of defeating yourself early when really you have the ability to go further with a little more confidence at the times you would usually lose confidence. If you're playing to win, you're going to fear failure and feel like you have to win, but if you're just going out and working on the things you're rusty at, trying to do what you didn't do last week or yesterday, not giving up on yourself, and the work you're doing is always in progress and never finished, you have room to improve anything you want to improve.
Underconfidence can get you stuck somewhere you wouldn't be stuck at a time when your confidence level wasn't as low. Allowing yourself a little room not to fail but not being afraid to fail can sometimes make a difference in how something you do turns out. You won't expect to always fail every time that way, even if you don't expect to do a good job at something. The point isn't to be a stupid fuckin hero on a piece of cardboard, no matter what an announcer thinks you have to be, it's to not feel like you have to be anything but who you are (and to not feel like you have to do anything but what what you have the ability to do if it's what you always really wanted to do), no more no less.

Get the Underconfidence mug.The loneliest person in the office besides the office thug/gangster. Both seem to want the hug that will never come from the other people at the office whose lives they fucked with.
The office snitch got everybody around him/her in trouble for a living and expected other people to be friendly and kind toward him/her.
