Are You Building Up or Tearing Down?

“At its best, criticism can do exactly what its supposed to do: motivate, educate, and inspire.  But when it seems mean and destructive, it can break spirits, damage companies, and even ruin careers.” - Hendrie Weisinger The Power of Positive Criticism Is your teaching/coaching building athletes up and making them better, or is it tearing them down? There is a difference between ‘giving everybody a trophy’ and riding your athletes unfairly and unjustifiably.  The best coaches engage and inspire their athletes.  They make their athletes want to learn, want to get better, want to WORK for success.
