Why I Am Firing My Clients And How It Helps You!

I have recently started firing some of my clients and turning down many new clients. This may sound counter intuitive to being successful, but I have learned 4 things that make it the smartest move I have ever made.

1. The truth is that nothing can move you towards successfully living the life you want more than a great coaching relationship. This truth is the secret that many of the most successful individuals in the world know. However, for you to get the most out of the coaching relationship you need to have a firm grasp of your goals and be aware of what obstacles are in your way.

2. Most people don't have a concrete idea of what they want and are totally unaware of the obstacles that are really keeping them where they are. They have a strong desire to change their life and break free, but have either a fuzzy idea of what this looks like or no idea of what this looks like.

3. When someone comes to me for coaching and they are not sure what their personal life purpose is and what is getting in their way, I end up doing a mixture of coaching, mentoring, and counseling in order to enable them to get to a place where they can be truly coached towards their goals.

4. As much as I enjoy working with people in the above process, it takes a lot of their time and mine and I believe there is a more effective way to accomplish this. This is why I have developed a program to enable anyone to accomplish this process in 10 weeks or less. The program enables you to go from a fuzzy idea of where you are in life and where you are going, to a concrete grasp of who you are designed to be and how to identify and eliminate the obstacles that keep getting in your way. Plus, it also helps you create a map to show you how to live your design out 24/7.

As you can see, by not allowing clients to hire me before they are ready, I am actually helping them develop into the best they can possibly be. I want the same for you!

It is truly better to give than receive and I bet you know someone who is ready to stop just surviving their life and start thriving.
