Beginner's mind




Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind: Informal Talks on Zen Meditation and Practice 


"In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert's there are few."  - Shunryu Suzuki.

A friend said that her third grader is better than Messi at soccer. He even volunteered to prepare his dad for an upcoming soccer competition. His lessons began with 4 rounds around a park.
When I spoke of this to other people, a son felt bad that the father he always lost to at chess, was defeated twice.
A father who arm wrestles his son is afraid he will lose as he is getting older and his son younger. Its not that he wants to win but that he does not want to lose. 
Kids think that they are better than world class leaders. Thats a good thing right!!

Boundless...
