A Mind Is A Wonderful Thing To Lose



I had this bright idea to offer coaching to anyone in February - first-come, first-served, pay-what-you-want. And now that February has drawn to a close, let me tell you how it went.Seventy appointments were scheduled. Yep, seventy. And those were all booked in the first thirty-six hours the offer was available. I worked with forty-one people, some of them in two sessions during the month. Most of them were people I'd never coached before.Which tells me that there are a lot of you out there who'd like coaching, but for some folks it's price prohibitive. More about that in a moment.What I learned surprised me. I mean it surprised me yet it was not at all that surprising.I was reminded that there are so many good and kind people out there. Five or six or seven times a day, my phone would ring and the nicest people would be on the other end of the line. People confused about what's next. People sorting out their priorities. People facing crisis. And one lucky S.O.B. who needed help deciding among his four job offers. Yes, you heard me right. I said "four".[Who says the economy isn't in recovery?]Speaking of which, the finances of this experiment also surprised me. The average client paid about sixty percent of my regular hourly rate. Some paid less, some paid much, much more. But all valued the coaching they received and that was gratifying.And has led me to create a way that more people can be coached frequently and affordably.I call it The Club.In The Club, coaching will be available to any member twice a week in twenty minute increments - just enough time to do some laser coaching and get you clear... and help keep you accountable toward your goals. I'm also creating email content for Club members only, which will include tools and exercises you can do on your own to keep your momentum going. I'll also share chapters of my new book, and audios of interviews I'll be doing with smart, successful people who have ideas to share about how you can maximize your potential.And I'm concentrating on keeping The Club affordable. So, it's only $66 per month if you sign up before March 7th. After that, the price goes up to $127 per month. Which is still a great deal.I'm pretty psyched about this, as you can tell.It's going to be really fun.People are going to make progress and get ridiculously clear. I'm going to meet the nicest people - and keep a relationship with them going. How cool is that?If this sounds intriguing to you, or a no-brainer slamdunk opportunity, sign up today. Let's get started, shall we?Just one final thing I have to say. A deep thank you and a wide wave of gratitude to all who took me up on my February offer. You brought your fears, your hopes and your dreams - and shared those with me. A great, great, invaluable gift.Thank you so very, very much.
