“Pretend that every single person you meet has a sign around his or her neck that says, ‘Make me feel important.’ Not only will you succeed in sales, you will succeed in life.” - Mary Kay Ash

“I always paid more in gas money than I used in gas,” was what the man said.  Good stuff!

Due to my shy nature (yes Virginia that’s a joke) I was on the flight into Mexico City   and I noticed that the young man sitting next to me had a funny way of speaking English.

He’s a Kiwi (New Zealand to you Virginia), currently residing in Florida and is one of the premier Wake Boarding Coaches in the world.  We spent the better part of the flight in casual conversation, that’s where I picked up the opening line of today’s broadcast.

Think about it….here is a young man from the other side of the world that has established himself as a one of the best, in an expensive sport/hobby, in supposedly “rough economic times” and his industry is experiencing a boom.

Do you wanna know why?  Wanna know his secret?  You already do.

Re-read the opening line.

When Kurt (that’s his name Virginia) said that he always paid more in gas than the gas he used, he was stating a philosophy that he has utilized to gain success on his terms.

“Do more than is required.”

“Outwork the guy next to you.”

“Expect more from yourself than you do from anyone else.”

“Do above average things and you’ll get above average results.”

“What you put in is what you get out.”

“Garbage in, garbage out.”

“Give 8 hours work for 10 hours pay.”

… and of course, “Pay more in gas than you use.”

That’s it, simple and straight forward.

Until next time, put everything you have into everything you do.  The choice is uniquely yours.

The best is yet to come!

“Not the maker of plans and promises, but rather the one who offers faithful service in small matters. This is the person who is most likely to achieve what is good and lasting.” - Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

Coaching is about change, about making changes.  A coach is a magician of change, who takes the cards you have it helps you to play your hand better or sometimes to even change the rules of the game.

Changes come from dreams of something better.  When we have achieved one dream, we look forward and dream again.  There is always the dream beyond the dream.

It’s about bringing your dreams into reality and this is what a coach does for you.  Coaching engages your imagination and at the same time, is immensely practical in the real world.  It deals with goals and achievements.

It links your world of dreaming with your world of reality.

A coach engages the habits that are holding the client back, sometimes by guerrilla warfare, sometimes by direct assault.  Coaching will change the direction of your life.  It may only be one small change at a time, but small changes add up.

Think of your life is a journey down the road.  You don’t know where you are heading, but the scenery is pleasant.  After a while you begin to see that your life is being recycled.  You see that the same thing comes around again.

Then you come to a branch in the road.  Actually, there have been branches all along the road, but you haven’t noticed that.  Or, if you have, you were comfortable on that road, so you ignored them.

However now the game is different, you have a coach to alert you to the possibilities of change.  You change direction, ever so slightly.  You take a new road, one that diverges just a little from your original.

The first temptation maybe to think, “Huh!  Hardly worth doing.“  It may be true that the change is only a small one in the short term.  But the longer you maintain that change, further away from your original road you will travel.  After a year, you will be an entirely different country.  This will be so even if you never make another change.

The larger the change in direction, the shorter time it will take to come to new scenery.  However, even the slightest change will take you on a different journey if you persist.  You simply need to keep on the new track, even though the old one may call you back with seductive promises of familiar comforts.

“The devil you know is better than the devil you don’t know.“  But is there a devil at all on the new road?

What is the role of a coach in this process?  A coach does three things:

1. Shows you the track you are on
2. Points out the choices and helps you take the new road
3. Helps you persist in maintaining that change

In general, life is a series of small decisions.  A big change is often many little changes saved up for the right moment.  Each decision we make either keeps us on the same comfortable track or takes us toward what we truly want.

Coaching helps you to make better decisions; decisions that are uniquely yours.
