People take personal standards serious for example my house is too small to raise a family therefore I will work hard and save enough money to get a larger one. Embarrassment comes within our personal standards everyone has self-confidence about their abilities to achieve any task may occur. This allows a bar to be set that only we can see and reach because it’s our personal standard about where we should stand. Personal standards let downs could come about in any situation for example professional athletes are expected to skilled beyond the average amateurs level. This is not always the case NBA star Lebron James was dunked on in his own skills camp by a college player.

I remember my sophomore year in high school my basketball team was in the state championship and the team we were playing a team we defeated earlier in the season. The game earlier in the year we destroyed the team by 30 points so everyone in the league figured we would walk away with another title like we did the previous year. Before the game I kissed my girlfriend showing off dunking on the layup line which illegal in high school sports. When the game started we were completely awful we were embarrassed losing by 25 points and my best friend. got dunked on which is like the worst thing that could happen to you in high school ball. The personal standard was set for my team because of the level of excellence we showed throughout the year and the previous year. We also felt like we let down our school and girlfriends for witnessing that lost.
