The problem is not that you have emotions, it’s what you do with them, that’s the problem.
While the kids I was coaching were getting frustrated at the exercise I had provided, I was feeling unsure and insecure. Wasn’t this supposed to be enjoyable?
Finally, one of the kids came up to me and said. “I get it, I don’t like it, but I get it. I know why you are doing this.”
Coaching is about emotions; we feel it, then we think it.
