Positively negative

"I'd always thought negative emotions were a sign of weakness and linked them to failure and self-judgment. Coach's comment, though, showed me negative feelings could have a positive reasoning: My disappointment was rooted in a desire to be better.  My place wasn't what mattered to Coach. What mattered was my commitment."

From the book "Let Your Mind Run: A Memoir of Thinking My Way to Victory", by Deena Kastor & Michelle Hamilton
