0:00.0	This is Warrior Kid Podcast number 19, Ask Uncle Jake. This podcast is based on the two way of
0:07.0	the Warrior Kid books. The first one, Wimpy to Warrior the Navy Seal way, and the second one,
0:14.1	Mark's Mission. The way of the Warrior Kid books are about young Mark, who faces a lot of problems
0:21.6	that kids everywhere face, but Mark gets help solving these problems from his Uncle Jake,
0:28.0	who was a Navy Seal, and who stays with Mark in the summertime. This podcast is for kids to hear
0:34.7	some more lessons from Uncle Jake, and also to get the chance to ask Uncle Jake some questions.
0:42.2	Here's the first question. There's a 10-year-old Warrior Kid named C, and that Warrior Kid asks,
0:52.0	I play baseball a lot. My team isn't that good, and I get upset when someone makes an error on an easy
0:58.8	play. How do I keep myself under control when this happens? Yes, I know this feeling sometimes
1:09.2	people get mad when someone on their team makes a mistake. But I want you to think about this.
1:16.4	If you get mad at someone on your team for making a mistake, and let's say you yell at them,

1:27.6	Do you think that that gets them motivated to play better? Do you think that the extra pressure
1:35.5	you're putting on them from yelling at them? Do you think that's going to improve their performance?
1:42.0	Well, I'll tell you right now, and I think you know this. It won't. Getting mad at someone on your team
1:49.5	will actually make them play worse. They're going to lose focus, and then they're going to make even more mistakes.
1:57.2	And another thing that happens when you get mad at someone on your team, it makes the whole team get worse.
2:05.5	It separates you as a team. And instead of the team fighting together against the opponents,
2:14.0	the whole team will be fighting against each other, fighting against itself.
2:19.8	And that will definitely not help you win. So if someone makes a mistake,
2:27.1	stay calm, stay under control, tilt your head back a little bit and take three nice big breaths.
2:35.0	And then instead of yelling at your teammates or getting mad at them, give them encouragement.
