Seven Gifts from Us to You

December 29th, 2008

Dear Mastery Coach,

2008 is the year when everyone became a leader

Barack Obama says so. Seth Godin says so. Thomas Friedman says so. The world is upside down, so leadership now comes from the bottom – or anywhere else. That means coaching is truly for everybody (See our Compass Coaching class for more on that). Not only does everyone need a coach (and can now afford one), but everyone needs to BE a coach; not a professional necessarily, but someone who can have a transformative conversation anytime it’s needed.

So I’m making coach training absolutely fre*e!

No, training at School of Coaching Mastery is still only for those who are ready to step into leadership in the coaching industry and it is not fre*e visit here for the last few days of our special tuition pricing. However, we have two ways to get coach training that are totally fre*e. The first is for everyone who wants it and the second is just for a few and by application, only

First: Sign up here to get Coaching Groundwork for fre*e. Eight hours of recorded audio classes in a four-day ecourse. People say they can’t believe how much they learned in so short a time. Register here.

Second: Everyone who takes the Coaching Groundwork fre*e ecourse will be invited to apply for Game Changer Chats: How to have conversations that change everything. This is a six-hour live eclass series and it’s the first time it has ever been taught. There is an application and interview process to join it. Sign up above to get your invitation.

That’s it! Two ways to start coaching fast. Please email, Twitter or blog about this opportunity to other people who might benefit from learning leadership communication skills.

The Attraction Jump

Here’s a cool exercise called The Attraction Jump. It uses gratitude to boost your attractiveness in a whole new way.

STEP 1: Gratitude List. Write down 20 things you’re grateful for now. Be specific and write WHAT it is about each one that you are most grateful for. Now pay attention to your life and notice more things you’re grateful for. Add each new thing you’re grateful for to the list until you have at LEAST 100.

STEP 2: Enjoyment List. Write down 20 things you’re enjoying looking forward to (These are things you want and you enjoy it.). Again be specific and as you notice more things you want, add them to the list (as long as you’re enjoying wanting them). If you notice anything on this list that you no longer enjoy, either find a way to start enjoying it again or remove it from the list. Pay close attention to items on this list that you are enjoying a lot. They’re getting ready to jump to your Gratitude List!
