Getting Psyched to Improve

This post makes some good points about the ups and downs, psychologically of climbing. (I guess the physical ups and downs goes with the act of climbing.)

For example:

"This psyche might take the form of frustration at lack of ability, progress or disappointment at a bad performance. But I think any person who is ready to improve, and certainly all good athletes, actually feel this as a positive emotion. It is the food of motivation. So don't suppress it!"
