How to Praise the Process

<p>Praising progress over the result takes intention. Because, when you’re a high performer, you love bringing home that W. So for many of us, letting go of the result takes a lot of practice. </p> <p>Like, a LOT of practice.</p> <p>I was at my kid’s soccer game the other day, and she scored two goals. Now, the competitor in me, wanted to cheer, swing her around, and make a huge deal out of it, but I also knew that if I wanted my daughter to praise progress over result I had to be careful about how I celebrated her in that moment.</p> <p>My daughter knows that I’m proud of her; not because of her two goals, but because she played hard. Because of her EFFORT, not the OUTCOME.</p> <p>I want my daughter to ask herself, win or lose, “Do I know - in my GUT - that I did my very VERY best?”</p> <p>In this special extended episode of The Mindset Coach Academy Podcast, I explore:</p> <ul><li>What does praising progress really look like?</li> <li>What’s the ripple effect of praising progress over outcome?</li> <li>How can we instill this idea in the people we coach, our kids, and ourselves?</li> <li>Is it important to care about results?
