Getting Out of Your Comfort Zone
I remember it like it was yesterday. The date was January 2, 2002. I peered through the window of my airplane, taking in the sights
I still recall the day I launched my business. I was filled to the brim with joy. I was taking the step toward complete independence, business ownership, and securing my own future. I then knew I needed assistance. I didn’t know as much as I thought I knew; in fact, I didn’t even understand several fundamentals. I was stressed out and kept busy with business. I felt as like I was being buried alive in my newfound independence because there was so much to do and learn. There were times when I wanted to shout throughout the start of my new business. One thing became obvious as I talked to and spent time with other business owners, executives, and entrepreneurs. I required a business mentor.
I hear entrepreneurs and small business owners tell me all the time, “I don’t need a coach, I got this”. They also say things like, “I am too busy for a coach” or “I don’t have the money to spend on a coach.” My answer is always the same when I say, “my point exactly.” A coach is the person who will make you better so you are not too busy to get better, and not so broke you can not afford a coach. These excuses are the exact results you produce by not getting a coach.
Competition exists in the corporate world. There are people out there who want to win, whether you realize it or not. You’re being challenged by others. Others want to completely destroy you instead of just beating you. These other people are highly skilled, well-trained, and some of them will be brutal in their quest of commercial and entrepreneurial success. Keep this in mind as you enter the arena of business conflict. You will be killed if you arrive unprepared.
Here are a few tips as you search for, interview and then hire a business coach.
I hope this answers some of your questions about what to look for when hiring a business coach. Please feel free to comment and post here if you have any more questions, or need any feedback.
