11 reasons why you think you don’t need a coach
Breaking the myth
When talking to prospects, I notice they are afraid to invest in a coach and they tell themselves all kinds of reasons why they think they don’t need coaching. In this article for Brainz Magazine I am breaking the myth.
Coaching to me is the shortcut to success, taking your entrepreneurial journey from the farm road to the motorway. Of course I have my own, because I don’t see my own blind spots. And I haven’t achieved my goals yet. Even when I have achieved my goals, I know there will be another goal to reach, I just love to challenge myself. Just like the top athletes, I understand the imporance and value of a professional expert helping me to become the best version of myself and I happily invest in them, because it is an investment in me and I’m definitely worth it.
