Reflection questions

Proving Yourself Right vs. Proving Others Wrong: How might your approach to challenges change if you focused on proving yourself right rather than proving others wrong? What impact would this shift have on your coaching style or parenting approach?
Creating Value vs. Climbing Ladders: In what specific ways are you creating value for those you lead or parent? How might you shift your focus from "climbing the ladder" to making a meaningful impact in your current role?
The Seeker Mentality: How are you modeling curiosity and a "seeker mentality" for your athletes/children? What questions could you ask more often to foster this mindset in those you lead?
Transformational Impact: What would it look like if your athletes/children wanted to stay connected with you 5-10 years from now? What small changes could you make today to become more transformational and less transactional in your approach?
Process Over Outcome: Where in your coaching or parenting are you overly focused on outcomes rather than process? What is one area where you could shift your attention to be "maniacal about the process" instead of the result?
