Stuck In A Trap? The Mammoth Reason Why You're Losing More Than Winning In Life
Who Needs A Coach? A Pro or A Semi-Pro or A Newbie?
Not getting a coach/ mentor could be the worst decision you could make in your life
(I'm not exaggerating. I'll prove this to you by the end of this note)
So, let's start from the basics.
Who according to you NEEDS a coach?
I'll give you three options:
01. A newbie
02. Someone who's at the semi-pro/ intermediate level, or
03. Someone who's the top of their game?
Before I tell you my answer, I want you to contemplate and share your thoughts in the comments.
Well, I hope you've posted your thoughts in the comments and on the basis of that trust, I'd like to share my response with you, now.
The right answer is... ALL THREE
Yes. It's a myth that just category of people needs guidance of a coach.
You need a coach at every stage of your life for all.
Why? You ask!
Well, the answer is simple. You will always face a new challenge, and getting the right direction/ guidance/ perspective from an expert can help in more ways than one.
Imagine yourself to be a cricket player for an example.
When you start playing in your locality, your friends or someone who plays the game better can tell you how to hit the shot/ field better, because they know the surrounding/ situation better.
Let's say you continue with your interest in the game and progress to playing in city/ state level leagues.
At this stage, your team will be allotted a coach who will help you hone your skills and get better at the game.
Over a period of a few years, you get selected to play for the Indian Premier League/ The Official Cricket Team of your country.
Wouldn't you need a coach at that level to help you manage your game, the competition, the team dynamics, the pressure, et al?
It's simple. If a particular outcome is important for you, in the long run, you will need assistance, help, guidance, support, feedback and perspective to keep improving and unlocking the next level.
Look at any successful people you know, follow them for a few weeks dedicatedly on social media and you will see them talking about their coaches/ mentors/ seniors/ therapists/ investors/ mastermind in their posts.
In effect a coach/ mentor can enter your life in more than one form.
However, the go-getters have understood the rules of the game.
With every passing day more and more people are choosing to enrol themself with a coach/ mentor in an area of life where they feel they need to improve their skill set.
At any given point in time, you will find me upgrading my skills/ mindset/ outputs through the best coach I can find.
The real question is... Where do you stand in this situation?
What are your thoughts on the role of coaching?
How many coaches are you enrolled with?
