I asked my son (7) today how it makes him feel when he loses in a game with his friends. He said it makes him feel happy and sad. I asked him what about about losing makes him sad, and he said, “Because I want to win.” I asked him what makes him feel happy when he loses, and he said, “Because I get to see my friends win.” I’m not sure exactly how we taught him that mindset, but I was so proud of his answer.

Beginner’s Mind. Doesn’t have to be taught. We all know right from wrong. AND, it does grow in strength from encouragement. THAT is the role of the parent: example, teacher, friend.
