Let's Take The Concept of Vision Deeper ~ We Add Nicknames and Personas
Manage episode 281407537 series 2842808
Music students learning to play an instrument emulate the player (a persona) they want to be (a vision) all the time. It helps them ditch some, if not all, of their sense of self-consciousness to focus on the lesson and connect with the teacher and what they want to achieve. Music students come to their lessons with a will to know and the teacher (similar to the coach) must create an atmosphere that encourages students to struggle.
With each new piece of music a student brings to a teacher, the teacher may struggle in order to figure it out or show it to the student. They make mistakes and the student makes mistakes - they go through the struggle together - and there is a tremendous sense of satisfaction which both student and teacher feel together.
Are tennis coaches and players feeling that sense of satisfaction? Are coaches going through and appreciating the struggle their students are engaged in? Are you working with a will to conquer (must win or accomplish something) or a will to know (a sense of curiosity and a desire to work together) coach or student?
In this episode we move the ball a little further down field in figuring out the vision by adding:
* Nicknames
* Personas
* Signature shots
Happy new year!
