Something that according to journalist David Owen left Meyer “and his siblings felt pressure to succeed but enjoyed little sense of personal accomplishment when they did, because their triumphs were taken for granted-a dilemma that one of his sisters described to me as “a lose-lose situation.”″
I’m just not sure what you mean by “winning attitude”: it sounds very Law of Attraction-y to me—that if you think positive or “winning” thoughts it will have a self-fulfilling prophecy. Almost as if what they’re missing is to just “wish for alignment harder” or that “the reason you can’t achieve alignment is because you didn’t believe enough”. That is a very broad brush to pain the entire community and you haven’t provided any evidence to support it.
My point is that we should consider all strategies when solving a problem.
What are they all? Do you have a list? And don’t we risk dilution of resources on the ineffective ones?
