Truth in Coaching

Someone out there needs to hear this: when you don't have energy to get started and you're waiting for the perfect time, there IS NO magic moment. You will have to make your own moment. We're here to help you get started BUT...you have to make it happen. Whether it's excuses or someone who is legitimately stuck, putting out energy usually yields more energy (like an investment). Of course, biological limits do apply (eye roll). Consider this to be an anonymous case study.

Aaaaaand this is why we can't use AI for everything.......Have you heard the lesson of the Fixed Mindset vs the Growth Mindset? If you haven't heard this before, this will all be new to you (duh! Yogi Berra much?) But even if you're already familiar with the concepts, the coaches find some new shades that reach well-beyond the boiler-plate AI Summary. In fact, there's a good chance that you're nurturing more of a fixed mindset than you care to. -Can vs can't isn't the whole story-How does appropriate goal setting play into this? -So we're going to grow!
