Episode 276, Unlock Your Potential!

Episode 276: Is there something you have wanted to improve in your life or business? This episode explores how to unlock your potential.

 

Let's start with this question. What's the one thing in your life that you're striving to improve? Whether it's your health, finances, relationships, or business, I'm here to help you take the next step. So, what's your game plan for unlocking your Potential?  

 

We all have the best intentions to improve. You don't have to do it alone. Are you open to some direction or coaching to help you get there faster?

 

This week, we're exploring Unlocking Your Potential and the powerful benefits of gaining another perspective to help you uncover your next level. It's a journey that promises fresh insights and exciting opportunities.

 

Let me share a personal example: I love golf. I am a 10-handicap, and my goal is to be an 8. I came to realize that to get there, I need another perspective to analyze the opportunities to unlock my Potential.

 

So, I went to Golf Tech and met with Jeff. Jeff measured various aspects of my swing to provide me with valuable insights for improvement. Key insights I couldn't see, such as body motion sensors, Club movement when hitting the ball, including ball speed, launch angle, spin rate, and club path. All these insights that I wouldn't be able to see.

 

He also observed the shifting of my body through the swing to identify areas for improvement. He observed my swing speed and tempo to identify areas for improvement. The 3D Swing analysis captures all the data points to help me refine my game.

 

Once we have all the data, it's time to implement it. This is one of the most complicated steps. For me, I had to make a few changes in my game—a new way of shifting my body and changing my swing path to maximize every shot.

 

The journey of practicing the new swing began, I must admit, it felt awkward and unnatural. ( and sore from using different muscles). But I was determined. It takes time to learn and implement something new, as it is so easy to retreat to what is comfortable. My advice is to keep pushing and practicing the new pathway, even when it doesn't feel perfect. Remember, persistence and progress are key.

 

I remember playing golf that week after my first lesson. Implementing what Jeff had coached me to do. It wasn't pretty for many shots, and I wanted to go back to the old swing I knew. However, I kept working through the misses and, on occasion, would see the results from his recommendations.

 

Can you relate? You start to implement something new, and you don't get the immediate results, so you go back to what you know. The real opportunity lies in working through the misses or shortfalls and staying the course.

 

Another opportunity, once you get another's perspective, is to practice what you learned. As you do, you start to create a new pattern of learning and success. After my lesson, I would go and practice this new swing to anchor it in my body. I was trying to create new muscle memory.

 

Here's your chance to take charge. Identify one area of your life you want to improve or get to the next level. If you're in sales and want to improve your new business, what would you have to learn to do this? Can you ask your manager for insights on their views of who you're targeting or what your approach is when asking for that first meeting? Can you put the found knowledge into practice every day so you too create a new muscle memory of setting effective meetings?

 

Or do you need someone to look at what you're currently doing to gain another perspective? Hire a coach to identify your opportunities and help you achieve your goals. In many cases, we all have the data; we need another to help guide us to our next level.

 

Here are three key benefits of hiring a coach to help you achieve your goals:

1. Clarity and Focus: A coach helps you define your goals with precision and creates a clear roadmap to achieve them. They guide you to prioritize what truly matters and stay focused on your objectives.
2. Accountability and Motivation: Coaches keep you on track by holding you accountable. They provide consistent encouragement and feedback, ensuring you stay motivated even when challenges arise.
3. Personalized Strategies and Growth: A coach tailors their approach to your unique strengths, weaknesses, and circumstances. They provide insights, tools, and strategies that accelerate your progress while fostering personal and professional growth.

 

I am encouraging you to take the first step. Identify what you want, and gain another's perspective by hiring a coach who has expertise in that area. Then apply what you learn, even when it feels unnatural. The real growth is on the other side.

 

If I can help, please feel free to private message me for any personal or business coaching needs. I will leave the golf advice to Jeff. Well, I am off to practice my new swing.

 

Until next time, thanks for joining me this week. If someone can benefit from this episode, do me a favor and share it.
