You CAN Be Great, But…
Yesterday I was teaching a class when a student was getting frustrated, because they were comparing themself to another, more experienced, student.
That’s a positive thing if the comparison is in the form of observing exactly what the younger student can learn from the more experienced one, and from the Sensei, to become better.
It’s a debilitating one when combined with the faulty assumption that we should be great at anything quickly.
So that exchange inspired my morning message: You Suck At That. 🙂
