A couple of weeks ago, when we were leaving one of those horrible giant trampoline bouncy(弹跳床)places, my 11－year－old daughter said to me, “I don't think I'm very athletic, you know, like Rocket (her brother). He seems to be really good at ______.”

What came out my mouth ______ me: “No, you're kind of not.”

Okay, let me ______. As you may have guessed, this child has been with me for about 11 years, so I've had enough time to ______ her engaging in physical acts: jumping, climbing, running, and organized sports.

And the kid is just ______ me: two left feet. If anybody was ever NOT a “natural”______， that person is me.

But even ______ these facts, my first instinct(本能反应)was to show her with some ______： “Oh, no honey. You're good at sports! You just have to keep ______！” But I decided to tell her the ______， and I could see it hurt a bit.

So I said more: “Ava, we all have things we are particularly, ______ good at. Like you and ______. You're in the 5th grade and read Charles Dickens. That isn't ______， but you've done it without even trying. But all of us also have things that we are ______ in. If we wan to get good at those things, we have to put in twice the ______ of the people around us to get to a decent(相当的)point and even harder if we want to ______.”

She was nodding. She totally ______ it. Why? Because it's the truth. Sometimes I wonder why we run around talking nonsense(胡扯)to our kids when they can ______ the truth. And they can smell rubbish from a mile away. In other words, they can easily recognize you are ______. In addition, if they don't know where they ______ now, they'll never know how to get somewhere new.
