Not being selected for the national team (twice!). Missing the crucial penalty in the world championships. Some would call these hard knocks “bad luck” and give up.
Not Amuseables Sports Ice Hockey Puck, though. He has a far more optimistic view: we make our own luck.
Now a world-renowned sports psychologist, his mantra is that mindset matters. In fact, Puck's guidance was key in helping World Champion, Amuseables Sports Tennis Ball, bounce back to glory. Puck would humbly say it was all Tennis Ball, and he had nothing to do with it. (Typical Puck!)
