Jack Barra 3/5/24 Sports Psychology The movie “Friday Night Lights” is a movie where it is entertaining, fun and it has many aspects to it where you can learn about life through sports. The movie takes place mainly down in Odessa,Texas in 1988 where a local high school known as the Permian Panthers has state championship goals and expectations going into the season knowing the roster and coaching that they currently have.

Like the goal of winning the Texas State Championship, whether it's sports or beyond sports in the real world, you have to set a reasonable goal of what you want to succeed. Success is everywhere today and you need to do that to be effective at your job. Whether it's making sure everybody is doing their proper role like in the movie or doing your role, you have to make sure that you are working towards your goal. If you don't reach your goal there could be consequences like when prior to the season it was basically a championship or bust for the team.
