“According to TMT, self-esteem buffers against the potential for death anxiety. Because sport allows people to attain self-esteem, reminders of death may improve performance in sport.” “Your subconscious tries to find ways to defeat death, to make death not a problem, and the solution is self-esteem,” co-lead investigator of the research Uri Lifshin told University of Arizona News. “When we’re threatened with death, we’re motivated to regain that protective sense of self-esteem,'' Uri added.So the next time you're feeling discouraged at the gym or feeling lazy about going for a run, think about the fact that you'll die, yep really, and you'll be fit in no time. Obviously just don't let it get you down.
