'Must try harder…'

Today I was directing an MCofS FUNdamentals of Climbing 2 at Glasgow Climbing Centre. I was working to a new syllabus and I'm sitting reflecting on the train looking back over the day using my notes and some feedback I elicited from those on the course.
I'm trying to practise what I preach- I wasn't happy about the course but that's not a bad thing right? It just means I've got to reflect, learn and improve for next time. I won't go into specifics and there was plenty of positive feedback too… and I know that if I'm fostering a 'growth mindset' then a less than perfect performance is not a bad thing, just an opportunity…
…but I still hate it when I come away from a course feeling it was anything less than great!!
