That is the question.
Now, this is something that has been on my mind for the past month and I still have yet to make a decision. But that's alright. Doing things in my own time - when I'M ready - will definitely be one of my keys to success. Coaching?, you may ask. What type of coaching? Well, I've been contemplating becoming a Beachbody coach. There are so many benefits to being involved in this program, such as meeting new people, helping others achieve their goals, keeping myself accountable, and of course, the financial benefits of discounts on products and making money while I do something I already love!
However, I've gone back and forth with this. One part of me says, YES! GO FOR IT! And the other is saying, Who is going to want you as his/her coach when there are so many others who have made greater strides/have better bodies/are more fit/etc./etc.? So this is where the conflict comes in. Now I know no one is perfect so I'm not striving for perfection. But at times, it does seem difficult to really see myself being able to guide someone when I do not have ALL the tools yet. This is why I'm taking my time to decide so that I am very informed on the business end and I am getting myself right on the fitness/nutrition end as well.
As of right now, I am 98% sure that by the end of this year, I WILL be a Beachbody coach. Now, I just have to take the steps to gaining the knowledge and continuing to better myself so that I can use my own example to teach and guide others.

UHM! I would want you as my coach, and I am not just sayng that because Im your coach but because you inspired me to be a BETTER coach!!! Seeing your blog, your personal development, the kind words you say to almost everyone on the support group, the lives you have ALREADY touched! That's why I KNOW and have NO doubt you would be amazing! I mean you already have p90x experience, amazing information on your blog and a super supportive boyfriend! That is one hell of a start! and we all go at our own pace. I moved at my own pace when I started because I felt I needed to gain more knowledge like you said. It's what works for you! and as far as people wanting you to be their coach-people can identify with my body type, my personality, my quirks, my flaws, my attitude, my religion, etc because they may see similarities between myself and them. Which is perfect! So think of all the people you know that you things in common with, and that is WHY they will want YOU as a coach!
ReplyDeletebut like I've said, you have to do it when it's right for you! Just wanted to pump ya up a bit!
The one thing I have learned this last year is you don't have to have ALL of the answers...that is what the team is for. I didn't know a lot when I started, but it forces you to learn, better yourself, step out of your comfort zone and really put yourself out there :) You start to do things you NEVER thought were possible! I think you will find that it is an incredible learning experience and Abby posted a quote last night that is SO appropriate here: Don't wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful.” Mark Victor Hansen
