“Why would we ever put you in a situation where you might fail?”

Did you know that the art of switch hitting is baseball is dying out? Every year there are fewer players in Major League ball who can do it. The decline is sharper among US players than Latin ones, because in the US players and coaches are afraid of failures that could make a player look bad, or reflect on a coach’s reputation should it cost them the game.

Is there a change you would like to make in your life, but hesitate because you don’t want to look unskilled, foolish, or maladept? Is saving face becoming more important than changing with the times?

Magic questions from Dr. Gabor Maté:

• How does this benefit you?

• What does it cost you?

If you would like help and support in making a change in your life, consider engaging a coach. Feel free to ask me any questions.
