Why do some coaches fill their practice with ideal clients in a few months, while others may take years? I’ve been studying this a long time. And, rarely is the answer what you might think.
- It’s not that they are more skillful coaches.
- It’s not that they have more experience in marketing or know all the right people.
- It’s not that they have a slick website or say the perfect words to prospects.
- It’s not even the niche market they’ve chosen.
It comes down to the way they value themselves.
Start with a Powerful Inner Game We are all intrinsically valuable from the moment we come into this world. We are enough, just as we are. And that value does not diminish with time but grows as we learn to express our true essence. Sure, smart strategies, new skills and savvy marketing can help.
But it’s buffing up the inner game that makes an ordinary person into a winner.
To translate that into coaching business success:
1. Know that you are valuable (pricelessly so!) just as you are. Do what it takes to accept this truth about yourself.
2. Show that you value your time and your services, in every way you do business, from the way you think, to the way you speak, to the fees and standards you set.
3. Then, play a bigger game. Get the word out to prospects about the highly valuable services you offer.
This is about building true prosperity from the inside out. With that powerful light shining from you, your ideal clients arrive, your business thrives and other areas of your life get a boost too.
And here’s the thing — a new coach can do this just as well as an experienced one.
Imagine This . . .
- You wake up and choose where to put your attention and energy, moving slowly and deliberately.
- Your focus is on being at the cause of your life rather than the effect.
- You notice the every day riches that come to you just by being alive.
- Challenges don’t grip you like they used to. You’ve learned how to get your ego out of the way and surrender to the grace.
- You know that fears and doubts don’t define your value or your future.
- You bless the income you receive. You earned it, so it’s sacred.
- You pay your bills with equal joy, acknowledging how privileged you are.
- You are full of wonder at people, nature, even the state of the world, because you sense a greater current of strength and love.
- You’ve stopped dreaming about life. You now create the life you want, one step at a time, without attachment to outcome.
I don’t know about you, but writing this I feel more peaceful. This is inner game I’m going for and intend to pass forward to my clients.
