In the past few weeks I have spoken to several people about coaching.  Today I seem to be thinking about it more because I just had some emails back and forth with a friend, discussing the pros and contras and so forth.

So let me say it, from my point of view, like I see it:

- Yes, there is some money to be made.  How much depends on how much effort you want to put into sales.
- Yes, there is a small fee to be paid but, honestly, it is the price of 4 galons of milk.  Not really a big loss.
- Oh, yes, there is a 25% discount, that is oh-so-great for people like me, who buy fitness programs and supplements every so often.

But ...... really ......... is it about the commission, about paying or not paying a small fee, about the discount...?  Hell no.  It is about helping YOU.

I hear the reasons why people do not want to do this (I had sooo many doubts at first!), and I realized that if I still had the same issues I would not be here for you. I would be unavailable to you. When you first approached me I would have told you I did P90X and that you should buy it online and that would probably have been the end of that story. There would be no relationships, no advice, no care in the world for what you are going thru. I would be a success story wrapped in my own life and not really related to any of you in any way.

:( :( :(

"Coaching" is a word that fills my mouth with wonderful flavors. I get a high from helping you, you know?  I may just need to validate some low self-steem issues or perhaps I don't feel worthy unless I make mysef worthy to someone else??? Who knows?? I just know that coaching is what I want to do.  I want to help you, and I want you to help yourself.

Is coaching meant to make me some money?  Hell, I hope so!  But I went into this because I wanted to help ANYONE ANYWHERE.  Regarless.  I don't care if you are filthy rich or totally broke.  I don't care if you have an accent, have green eyes, or die your hair.  I am probably never going to meet you!  But if I can help you, if I can give you one piece of advice that will make a difference... then I am coaching.  And I am loving the hell out of it.

And that is how I see it.

That's what I have to offer.  That's what I do.  That's what I am about.

As a coach, the biggest issue I come across is the nutrition. As I told a local client today, we seem to jump into the workouts without any problems. We know they have to be done. We sweat and we go thru the pain and tears. Yet, the main issue many of us have is that we have hated our fat for years. It is not that we couldn't do pushups or had no cardio endurance. We probably didn't care about that at all!!! It is that we weigh this much or have a tire around our waists or a big butt. We have tortured our souls and minds about what we've eaten today, yesterday, 5 minutes ago. IN the morning we look in the mirror and hate what we see.... AND YET.... AND YET we still do not know simple answers like: how many calories did I eat yesterday? When are we supposed to eat the most carbs? What are the best choices to eat at night? What's a snack? How often do we have to eat? 

To me, the core of this journey is KNOWING HOW TO EAT AND WHEN TO EAT. Not just that, but having a total and complete INTEREST in knowing those things, regardless of what methods we are using to get us there. Not just guessing the answers, but knowing them inside as part of our daily routine. Know that tonight, by the time you eat dinner, you are still within your numbers. No guessing anymore. 

I sometimes ask these questions and I get "I-don't-know" for an answer. Or "I am pretty sure I am eating ok" which usually means "I don't know". 

What am I telling you this? Because in the past few days I've had this talk with 3 different people so I thought it would be a good thing to talk about here. 

Inform yourself to the best of your abilities. Don't play the guessing game anymore.
