Comments on the dynamic between "support" and "challenge"

Coach Dave Buck of Coachville.com was reflecting in a CoachBlog.com post on the distinction coaches need to make between “supporting” and “challenging” our clients to achieve their greatness:

Human Greatness means going beyond
personal achievement or playing a great game
for your own benefit and into playing so well
that you uplift the entire game
and everyone who plays it.

Another way of describing this is the distinction between what your player is doing and who your player is becoming. Greatness requires both doing and becoming.

The essential dynamic is support and challenge. Human greatness is only arises in the face of challenges. AND challenges are only overcome with lots of support.

This discussion resonates a lot with a professional situation I am experiencing at the moment – see my comments to his post here
