The small business has become large
So you’ve launched a small business on your own, with 3 to 5 people in it. Or maybe you’re a solopreneur that’s been working hard day and night. The thing is, you have outgrown your own definitions: nothing about your business is small anymore. Your cash flow isn’t small, your profit has nothing to be belittled, and day-to-day operations are humming along as planned.
After all, you have always pictured yourself in this situation. You have been visualizing this reality for years and worked hard in order to achieve it.
So here you are, a successful business person who can rightfully say, “I told you I’d make it.”
What If?
You have got the hang of your strong points and turned them into sharp, money-making weapons. You have rationalized your desires and your sheer power of will into tangible, concrete success. You’ve reached the 20th floor of a luxurious hotel and everything around you screams “You’ve made it!” But a little voice inside you whispers: What if…?
What if you could stop settling for the high floor you’re on, and reach the beautiful penthouse suite you’ve been dreaming of? What if your success could be doubled, tripled, or exponentially increased? What if you could tap into the vast amount of strength, power, and decisiveness within you to go even higher?
The thing is: you know you could do so much more. After all, no ordinary person reaches the level you’re on. So what is it that you’re lacking? What more is there to do, since you are already so busy? What is this roadblock you have encountered and why isn’t it moving?
Allow Me To Present To You
The #1 weapon the most successful people in the world use to their advantage: a coach.
You’ve probably heard of this by now…
After all, there’s nothing that scuttles past your decisive, attentive glance.
But what exactly is it that makes a coach so valuable that these successful people are more than willing to spend a fortune on it?
Cristiano Ronaldo, considered one of the top soccer players in the world at the age of 30, still sees the benefits of a coach to continue playing at a world-class level. Google CEO Eric Schmidt states: “Everybody should have a coach.”
So what is this all about? How can a coach unlock the huge door that’s between you and the next level of success?
Let’s analyze every facet of the situation and see how much you too can benefit from having a coach:
1. We are all human.
It doesn’t matter how much you’ve trained yourself to be that rational, unwavering money-making machine that has completely detached emotion from business. Sometimes personal issues are so impacting that they escape out of your control. If not addressed, these issues will paralyze you and your organization. An executive & personal coach helps you face these problems head-on so you can get back on your way.
2. You’re very busy.
You have so many responsibilities, and you know that your own fortune ultimately depends on you and on how busy your schedule is. You have people working for you and their level of efficiency inevitably derives from your own leadership capabilities. The thing is: you don’t have all of the time and resources to focus on being a better leader. You are too involved with execution and strategy. A coach helps you connect with the inner leader that’s sleeping inside you so that you can level up the efficiency of your entire team and navigate through your organization with ease.
3. You have untapped potential... and you know it!
You already understand your strengths and realize that they have led you to where you are now. But what if you could squeeze them to the last drop and make a highly concentrated juice out of them to keep you going even further? With the help of a coach, you can.
4. Change will happen.
You know this already, but we humans don’t like change very much: we see it as a time of disruption, even if it is necessary to move forward. A coach will help you adjust and prepare for change so that you can make the best of it, explore its benefits, and welcome it. Sometimes you cannot control change, so you might as well focus on the things you can control, like what you think, say and do, and how you react to it.
5. Those who fly high, fly alone.
Being successful can be difficult and sometimes a little lonely… it’s hard to find someone who thinks and acts at the same level you do. Having someone to talk to, to trust, and to have confidential conversations with is important. A coach is that supportive, discrete figure who elevates you and your business.
