Taking a class this weekend, Blissful learns about the key skills of a good teacher
 
This was especially important when she needed to face down an irrational fear of falling out of her kayak and being upside down in the water. 

Here are some of those skills:

  1. Positive Learning Environment.
  2.  Encourage Risk Taking. 
  3.  Provide Feedback and Guidance
  4. Promote a Growth Mindset 

Just wanting to get better and do something out of our comfort zone isn't enough. Sometimes we need guide who possessed strong leadership and teaching skills.

Blissful will give her first TEDx talk this October in Manchester, New Hampshire! The subject is "Stepping into the Unknown." Get tickets here. Use coupon code "WILD" for a discount!

MUSIC: Introduccion y Allegro by Carlos Guastavino as played by Alison Young, flute and Vicki Seldon, piano.
