…making music…
…making these stupid things…
…creating all sorts of crazy ideas…
…shaking around like that…
…try to tell me what to do…
…trying to console me…
…telling me what’s wrong and right…
…telling me how things work…
Actually, don’t stop.
Often times these things are irritating when we are low-skilled at them, but amazing when our skill develops, but often times we stop people before they can reach their potential. A wildly shaking child dancing around may be irritating, but that child at high school age with incredible dance skills can be the image of gracefulness. A child may be destroying things while trying to create something, but could possibly be the world’s greatest inventor in the future.
The secret is this doesn’t stop with children. In fact, it gets worse with adults because they are treated as if they had the potential, it would already be developed. In fact, that isn’t the case at all. Many adults are still discovering what they are good at, yet the pressures of society keep them from pursuing it more deeply.
Don’t stop.
In fact, accelerate, that way we can get through this low skill dip faster and reach the level where we can do some serious work. Any person, parent, teacher, business owner should recognize this truth and help others succeed where they can. That can come from coaching, minimizing the pressures to stop, or offering resources to continue on the journey.
When skills are developed to high levels, we all win.
None of this is Right
