Yes, coaches have coaches – at least the good ones do to keep learning, growing and expanding so they can share what they master with their clients!

At one point in the conversation, I talked about feeling an undercurrent of anxiety about the state of the world and about a situation in my business.
Read MoreDo you ever wonder what challenges your colleagues face every day? I sure do. So I thank everyone who responded to the survey I posted a couple of weeks ago. You may find their answers helpful to you just as I do.The most frequent responses are: How to make more money (about 75% of respondents and how to get more clients (about 58% of respondents). Does that surprise you? No, it doesn’t surprise me either.
Read MoreI certainly hope so! I hope you march to your own drummer, make up your own rules, glory in your full creativity, and are richly rewarded for it! But that’s not likely the case. I imagine that you probably cover up your weirdness so that you can fit in, be accepted, and get along.

If there was a glitch in their performance, I was called in by their coach to help them get their mindset right so they could compete and win. Consistently, when I helped the student athlete erase the mental and emotional blocks that were upsetting his/her competitive performance and apply that to a sensation of winning, s/he began to excel. Some ran their best time in races, others began to win their competitions, and several became team captains and made Dean’s List for the first time in their college career.

Read MoreAs I stagger grazed and changed out of the year 2013, I realize that the tremendous demands of the year are actually bearing gifts, just as I had fervently hoped during the steepest of challenges.
