In our lives, we have an incredible ability to complicate simple matters…
Why???
EGO.
When ego gets involved, we feel like we have to put our signature on everything that exists in order to make ourselves feel relevant. When in reality, it is often the work that we take in its natural and most simplest form that has the greatest impact and is the most mutually beneficial for everybody involved…
Playing sports, specifically youth sports, there are coaches that are looking to validate their worth and prove their significance. Unfortunately, this often leads to a colossal failure and it’s the kids who end up suffering.
It’s ok to want to help, never mind, It’s AWESOME to volunteer your time, energy and effort. Well intended instruction is imperative for all of us…
Yet, the next time we feel like dishing out our omnipotent wisdom, let’s make sure we are doing it to feed the kid…
NOT THE EGO.
