Everyone Has To Learn From Level Zero

By: Cameron Stein

“There is now a level 0.”

This may be your kids' favorite quote from Kung Fu Panda the movie. If not, it is surely in the top ten. There was much hilarity throughout the audience when Po was dropped right smack in the middle of the advanced training arena. Everyone in the audience found themselves shaking their heads at the poor panda bear who felt the need to learn kung fu.

The point of this scene is that whenever we learn a new skill, whether it be taking up the violin, restoring an antique piece of furniture or mastering karate, we all start at ground zero. The sooner it hits us that is an okay state to be in the better off we are.

Learn from your Kids

Children learn better and faster than adults because they know it's all right to begin at step one or below. Everyone around the kids understand that they can't possibly know because they haven't learned it yet. Those people offer a child encouragement and support which helps them to thrive and accomplish mastery over the skill they were attempting to learn. These kids may someday successfully teach the skills they learn today.

When we grow up we are no longer comfortable with not knowing and beginning at the beginning is shameful to us. This is because by this time we have absorbed many skill sets. No matter what it is we undertake we are expected to have a basic foundation from which to work.

We are expected to know what we are doing. This is far from fair, but whoever told you the world was fair was wrong.

It is Your attitude that needs a Tweak, not theirs

You have two choices as an adult human being. You can opt to be embarrassed about starting from the ground up and hold yourself back, or you can brush off the rude snickers and guffaws and charge on to realize your dreams.

Several weeks ago, a friend was telling me about his karate classes. He had begun learning martial arts as an adult, and strongly recommended a particular program. When I took a look at the program brochure, I understood why. The classes aren't divided by age or rank. Every student in the class, from the six year old taking their first class to the fifty year old veteran with the black belt are in it together. The more experienced help the younger ones, but there is no segregation. Because of that, no one is ashamed to find themselves starting out at Level 0.

There will always be someone to guffaw loudly as you ineptly begin something new. That is the way some people are. Far more important are the ones that offer encouraging words and support and lend you their advice and expertise if you are not too embarrassed to ask them for it.

Remember, they used to be Level 0 too.
