How Do I Find The Time To Improve?

"Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young."

Coaching is often an ideal solution to the challenge of "How do I find the time and energy for my own professional (and personal) development when I am too busy to keep up as it is?

We usually hear two objections to coaching: "I don't have the money", or "I don't have the time for this." We can guarantee you that:

1. You'll make more money with coaching than you will without it, even after you pay your Coach; and

2. You'll have more time to work on the business with coaching than you'll have without it, even after you've invested your time each week with your Coach!

Tom O'Toole from Beechworth Bakery, in response to those who, observing the amount of training he invests in his staff asked "What happens if you train them and they leave?", countered with "Ever thought of what happens if you don't train them and they stay!?"

I'll pose you a similar question, "If you don't upgrade your own knowledge and your leadership skills suffer, what type of person is likely to stay working for you?"

Coaching offers you the chance to invest in your greatest asset - you! - in a flexible and manageable way. As one of my good friends is fond of saying, "You pay for education once; you pay for the lack of it over and over again."

Anything you focus on grows, the accountability of a coach just naturally causes you and your business to grow.

Check out coaching as a possible solution for the time, money and people challenges in your daily life!

All the best,
