CHAPTER 2<\/h4>\n

Aim To Become AMasterful Coach<\/span><\/h1>\n

\"chap2-dash-min\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Now that you’ve learned a little more about what it’s like to be a full-time coach, you’re ready to move into the transition strategies we talked about earlier.<\/p>\n

This might sound simplistic or basic but so many new coaches miss this…<\/p>\n

When you’re just starting out and you’re thinking of transitioning into full-time coaching, there’s just one goal you must hold in your heart and in your mind…<\/p>\n

To become the BEST coach you can possibly be.<\/em><\/p>\n

Your job is NOT to compare yourself to other coaches who have more experience than you do and who might be further into their careers than you are…<\/p>\n

Your job is to discover yourself as a coach.<\/em><\/h4>\n

Your job is to learn about your strengths and your weaknesses…<\/span><\/p>\n

Your job is to focus all of your free time and energy to hit your highest potential as a coach.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"quote-chap2-min\"<\/span><\/p>\n

The great news is there are many ways to do this.<\/p>\n

\"read-icon-min\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Read books like <\/span>The Book of Coaching<\/span><\/a> which is all about becoming a great coach.<\/p>\n

\"enroll-icon-min\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Enroll in credible courses like the powerful coaching programs at Evercoach, taught by some of the best coaches in the world.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"seminar-icon-min\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Attend weekend coaching seminars or events where you’ll have the chance to connect with other coaches and maybe even rub shoulders with leaders in the industry.<\/p>\n

\"courses-icon-min\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Read more Coaching Guides<\/span><\/a> like this one on different topics from methodologies to techniques to business growth strategies to deepend your knowledge and skills.<\/p>\n

\"article-icon-min\"<\/span><\/p>\n

If money is an issue and there isn’t much room in your budget, go ahead and look for free articles and blog posts around coaching and starting a coaching business.<\/p>\n

\"exclamation-mark-min\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Think of yourself as a magnet for knowledge and information on coaching and set the intention to study, read, learn or experience at least ONE thing that has to do with coaching, every single day.<\/em><\/p>\n

Another powerful way to boost your coaching skills – and this will definitely accelerate your learning curve –  coach, coach, and coach some more.<\/span><\/p>\n

You’re probably already doing this in your work as a coach after hours and on weekends, but don’t restrict yourself to your side hustle.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Think of the whole world as your practice platform.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When friends or family come to you for advice, ask for permission to put on your coaching hat.  <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If you watch a movie and you see a character facing a difficult problem or challenge, ask yourself,<\/span><\/span> “What would I say to this person as a coach?”<\/span><\/p>\n

In other words, live and breathe coaching.<\/p>\n

Aim to understanding a wide range of coaching methodologies, practices and principles, and get yourself to the point where you know you can create results for your clients; not just once or twice, but again and again.<\/p>\n
