That have in common trainers or professors so different among if as John Wooden, Dorothy Delay or Marva Collins to be able to have achieved amazing results in his pupilos
They are people that felt passion by his work, wanted to his pupilos, believed in them and transmitted it to him. When defying them to encourage to improve transmitted them that they were doing it by his well. (Our emotional brain is our more powerful brain: it loves us feel us wanted to).
It is amazing to discover that mentors so different like John Wooden, Dorothy Delay, or Marva Collins, although they knew that each person is a world and needs a different deal, ( Phil Jackson said that each player has a “ switch “ hid in a different place, since to each one motivates him something different, switch that it is necessary to know find to be able to actuate it ), gave to all his pupilos the same importance and no descartaban to anybody, no descartaban, as they did other mentors, to the that rezagaba, but they helped them more.
They are people that retaban to his pupilos change his fate, showed them that they could be better.
- John Wooden took to a university squad of basketball considered the worst of the league and achieved to win the championship with him. Afterwards there were seasons that his squad ended up invicto and harvested 88 victories followed, (almost at all!!).
His philosophy could resumir in: it learns something each day to be better that yesterday, (no in being in better that another player),a small “daily “step, very given and consolidated, turn a big advance over time; and if you have given it all can not have lost, although the bookmark say the contrary.
-Dorothy Delay was a professor of violin that denied to refuse to any student, achieving spectacular results with students refused by other professors, “by not having talent“. Delay Did not stop to look for formulas so that these students learnt, until at last it found them.
One of the best violinists of the world, Itzhak Perlman, went student of Delay and his words are very elocuentes: “Delay gave it everything for teaching and few masters attain to teach in a whole life what Delay taught us in very little time“
- Marva Collins taught to boys of Chicago that had been expelled of other schools, (some by several schools) by fault of aptitude and of attitude, achieved some incredible results. Practically all got through the end-of-year exams.
(I am sure that these mentors, in addition to rewarding or recognise when it touched to do it, knew well a ratio studied by the scientists: before doing a critique to a pupilo is better to say him one, or several important things that have done well, to compensate, - already have commented something looked in another chapter of this manual- .
By the way it is much more didactic and effective, when showing to a pupilo something that does badly, the ask him the why he thinks that does it badly, urging him to that it discover it by himself same. The coaching modern explains that, through the questions of the coach, the student consciousness and learns.
Also these mentors had to know that it is much more effective to leave to somebody that choose and detail as it goes to improve something that has done badly, that is to say is more effective that leave him take part in the solution instead of imposing it. For example instead of “ obliging “ a trainer to an obese player to do a strict diet, logically is better to ask him that it likes him eat that it do not fatten, and like this animate him to that the do his own plan of adelgazamiento.
And of course these mentors had to know thrill to his pupilos - our more powerful brain is the emotional -, for example when doing them imagine the wonderful life that would live if with a lot of concrete steps, done with the maximum possible endeavour, at the end achieved his aims.
You do not say him, of entrance, to a boy that study by obligation, tries first to convince him thrilling him: for example explaining him efusivamente the happy that will be of elder being able to be a big professional in what it like him, if it studies
All what do a leader to go up the “ emotional state “ of his “ pupilos “ is little. In this regard I knew an employer that put music to his workers when they hinder to work).
