Manuel, move away from feeling you need to coach them on what they did wrong and focus on what they are doing well. Relate to them where they can move more of their learning objectives to the side of knowledge and understanding by taking the time to focus on what they do well and how to grow this area by understanding how they can do even better. The human brain takes in positive thoughts more than negative ones with respect to accepting them and wanting more of them. Negative thoughts can be very powerful but tend to train the brain to protect itself versus accepting more of what it knows to be positive. This is why positive self-talk is so powerful just like negative self-talk. We become that which we think of the most so if we think negatively we look at the world from that lens. If we focus on thinking positive thoughts, we tend to see the solutions and opportunities more readily. Give it a try and let us know how that works for you. : - ) James Jackson
