Life Coach asking for help

Shortly after I moved to the US in early 2006 I bought a copy of the bestseller ‘The Why Cafe’ by John P Strelecky.

I forget now what question prompted me to e-mail the author, but e-mail him I did and asked for some feedback.

What Would You Do With $10,000,000?

Life Coach King

One of the questions I frequently ask Life Coaching clients is;

“If I were to drop $10,000,000 in your bank account this afternoon, after you have presumably thanked me, what would you do next?”

What Do You Think?

So here we are with the shiny new blog design, what do you think? Love it? Hate it? Want to roll around in the hay with it?

I absolutely love it, I think it’s cleaner, more pleasing on the eye and easier to navigate, but hey, that’s just me, and after all, I like anchovy sandwiches.

I’d love to hear what you think because we will still be tweaking away for a few days

7 Killer Life Coach Questions

There are a number of aspects of Life Coaching that you need to be, at the very least competent at, if you’re going to be successful. Of course you need a big stick, but you also need competent rapport building skills and to be able to shut up and listen, sometimes for long periods.
