I′ve been part of several sports teams, and I remember one particular tournament where we were heavily favored to win. However, we ended up losing in the semifinals, and it was devastating. We had trained so hard but faltered under pressure. I′m curious: what truly drives teams to push their limits during high-stakes challenges? Is it the fear of failure, the desire for victory, or something else entirely? How do successful teams harness this motivation when the stakes are at their highest?
