watching kids excel in sport

From Mark Folger:

How does a child benefit from doing something well?

• A sense of accomplishment
• Motivation to continue the activity
• Developing passion for an activity
• Learning to set goals and be a progressive thinker
• Learning the process of accomplishment
• Recognition from parents, family and friends
• Determining a career path (depending on the activity)
• Friendships with other children who share common interests
• It’s fun to do something well

This list could become very large, so I’ll stop here. …

Actually, Mark doesn’t stop there. Click through to read the whole post. A great message
