Have you thought about the core values and life lessons you want your son to learn?
When I read “Changing the game by John O’Sullivan” I realized that the result is not the first priority since the purpose of playing soccer is not to push my son to be a professional soccer player or to get a scholarship or to enter university by the result.
It is good to get great results but I want my son to get core values and life lessons through sports even if he can’t succeed.
Life lessons I want my son to learn from sports are
1. Experience fail and success
2. Importance of communication
3. Don’t give up
Core values I want my son to learn from sports are
1. Respect teammates to have good teamwork
2. Fairness
3. Fun and Enjoy playing
How about you? I’ve never thought about core values and life lessons before I read “Changing The Game by John O’Sullivan“. It is worth reading the book to have an opportunity to think about what you expect your kids to get through sports.
