Default Re: Best MSNL Coaches

It appears G_Dollaz didn't know how to deal very well with the new approach/ways of thinking. MDMA probably did a good job of introducing these things. This was probably so far removed on a fundamental level of thinking, that G kinda got lost and out of his comfort zone. (see balance & confidence @ http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...umber=12878826 )

After this experience G decided that coaching itself wasn't good, but he didn't realize that it was only a part of the coaching process and integrating it into your game that didn't go well. He then blaimed MDMA for this as well, not realizing that the responsibility is first and foremost on the student. Ofcourse this is valuable information for a coach as well, thinking about how people might respond to it. Students might deal with it well by themselves but there might be pitfalls. And this is where communication comes into play. MDMA wishes to help his students, so if anything of this sort happens it's best to vocalize it so the coach knows what the important issues are to focus on, and to learn and adapt himself.
