Deep dives

The Importance of Positive Coaching

Coaching should prioritize positive reinforcement rather than focusing on what not to do. When attempting to help a talented climber overcome fear while on the wall, the traditional method of stating the negatives, such as 'don't be afraid,' proved ineffective because it left the climber feeling overwhelmed. By shifting the approach to emphasize positive actions, such as encouraging courage, the climber could better internalize an identity as a brave individual capable of overcoming challenges. This technique not only applies to climbing but also extends to various teaching and coaching scenarios, highlighting the significance of guiding learners toward constructive actions.

I’ve been using Snipd for about a year and this app has been life changing. I listen to about 17 hours of podcasts a week and I want to take notes on 95% of them. Snipd makes it so easy to do. I can triple click my headphones and record a snip. The app also improves rapidly which is welcomed. It’s an easy subscription for me to pay.
