Si se’ puede is an expression in Spanish that literally translated means yes you can. It has been a favorite expression of mine for years. All to often in coaching and in life we tend to focus on what can’t be done, the problems and the weaknesses. I prefer to focus on the possibility, what can be done. What are the strengths of athlete? Find and build on those strengths. Minimize the weaknesses, certainly acknowledge the weaknesses or deficiencies but don’t allow yourself to be consumed by them. There is no doubt that success breed’s success. Build on what you can do – si se” puede.
