There are a lot of reasons you might consider giving up on a goal or objective. And sometimes, quitting is absolutely the right thing to do. Other times, though, we are quitting for the wrong reasons, for example:

It’s natural to feel some frustration when we don’t know the answer, when we’re not sure what to do, when what we do doesn’t work–or doesn’t work as quickly as we wish it would.

When people are trying to achieve a certain goal or outcome, they often look for a regimen to follow. After all, that’s how we’ve been trained to approach these things.

Investing in coaching (whether in a group or individual setting) can help you reach your goals faster or more efficiently. It can also help you create results that you might not be able to create on your own. 

But a lot of people who hire coaches or sign up for coaching programs are disappointed with the results. This is usually because they expect to get things that coaching actually can’t do or provide.

In this episode, we explore what coaching can and can’t provide and how to know whether you’re a good candidate for a successful coaching experience.

It’s easy to confuse consuming content (whether in the form of books, podcasts, or other media) with taking action. It feels like you’re doing something (researching, learning, thinking, or planning). All of those things have their place but in this episode, we’re going to challenge you to put what you’ve learned into action.
