The Most Important Question for You...

The Most Important Question for You...
By: Christian E. Mickelsen

Do you know the answer to the most
important question? Stop and read
carefully because what I'm about to
ask you could be one of those things
that you just glance over and end
up missing out on. And you don't want to do that!

It's happened to me before. I was
reading the first few pages of a book
and I thought "this isn't new" and
put the book down. Then, months later,
while on a vacation, I actually read the book
and it was one of the most powerful
books I've ever read (I'll tell you what
book it was below).

The moral of the story is "don't let
something powerful slip through your
fingers"... like the book I almost skipped
or like this question I'm about to ask you!

*** "Why do you want to have a
successful coaching business?" ***

Is it because you want to...
* do work that you love?
* do work that has meaning?
* make a difference in people's lives?
* be your own boss?
* enjoy a flexible work schedule?
* make more money?
* take great vacations?
* buy a new car (your dream car)?

Or is it something else completely different. Perhaps
you just feel **guided** to coaching. I certainly
do. Regardless of what draws you to coaching,
there's one key piece you should pay attention
to in the question above: "successful"

If the desire is strong enough, you will
achieve the level of success you want because
you'll have enough drive to put in the energy,
time, learning, etc. that it will take to get your
business where you want it to be. But...

If you aren't clear on what is motivating you,
or if you haven't decided yet, what you really
want, then you could fall to the way-side
like so many coaches that have given up.

*** Key Difference ***

The key difference between winning and
losing at anything in life often times comes
down to desire. In sports we hear this phrase
all the time "It comes down to who wants it
the most". Desire has a powerful impact on
us. It will keep us going even when the going
gets tough.
