Athleticism is transferable and attitude is double black success. Gar spent his three week January senior internship as a volunteer ski instructor to help differently abled youth learn skills and enjoy the ski experience. His excitement about the entire experience has been contagious. His last run down the mountain before heading home was double black. Since I'm not a skier, I didn't even know until Friday that there was a difficulty designation beyond black. And as his mother, that ignorance prior to his successful run, was bliss.
The most remarkable thing is that prior to January 2, he had never even tried on a pair of skis. Because he's naturally athletic, I hoped that they'd teach him enough skills in orientation to be effective and remain interested. Gar embraced the entire adventure with a double black success attitude.
We often need to be reminded that our multiple skills are transferable. We need to apply them with a double black success attitude.
