Your Life Is More Important Than Your Business Or Career. Period.
“Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get.”—Dale Carnegie
Of the thousands of people we’ve trained and coached, the life component has proven time and time again to be a vital part for maximizing a person’s potential in their life, business, and career. Regardless of how things might be going, the reality is that major challenges lie ahead for all of us. We can’t escape that fact. Do you need help in any of the following areas (personal or business)?
“Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the wonderful and positive changes you have made possible
in my husband’s (and my) life. In the first few short meetings he has attended with you I have seen and felt
many great changes. I have watched our lives change from our family rotating and working around our business
to our business rotating and working around us. I am much happier (as are Matt and the kids). Thank you for
giving me my husband back.”
—Krystal K., spouse of Matt K., Business Owner, Nebraska
Your “GAP” is the distance between where you are now (your current reality) and where you truly want to be (your ideal future). Everyone has GAPS.
Can you close your GAPS on your own? Maybe…but most business owners, professionals, executives, managers, and people are simply too busy to slow down, reflect, face reality, and map out the changes they want (or need) to make in order to turn their ideal future into their reality. And many lack the discipline, process, and on-going accountability required to make the transformation.
Business and Life are about choices and consequences. How much time do you have left? None of us know how much time we have left. Top performers are keenly aware that the clock is ticking. Just like the sand in the hourglass, the sand in the bottom represents the past. It’s over. The sand in the top represents the time left to accomplish life’s purpose. And it’s depleting every second. You can’t invest it or buy more of it. You can only spend it.
“This night I just came back from having a wonderful time with my wife. We had an evening without stress
where we were able to enjoy each others’ company to the fullest. I believe that we were able to accomplish
this because I have been able to achieve a better balance in my life. It has not always been easy. This process
that we have begun has started me on a journey towards lasting balance and realization of my goals. The process
so far has helped me to see a 50% increase in my sales. But the biggest benefit for me is that I am achieving
balance having wonderful evenings with my wife.”
—Matthew F., Franchise Business Owner, Virginia
What would your biggest regret be if this was your last day of life? Bronnie Ware, an Australian palliative care nurse, cared for patients in the last 12 weeks of their lives. She recorded their dying epiphanies and witnessed the phenomenal clarity of vision that people gain at the end of their lives. The top five regrets they told her were:
We have the training and coaching tools that will enable you to maximize your true business and personal potential. One of those tools is to make sure your life is hitting on all cylinders, balanced, and enjoyable. Life is a roller coaster that we all ride. From this very moment until the second we take our last breath, we will all face the ups and downs of life. No one escapes it. When sailing in blue skies, it’s only a matter of time before we must go through the next storm. To ignore the impact that life has on your business success is malpractice. While our focus remains on maximizing your potential in your business and career, we must address the necessary critical life issues and challenges. In some cases, getting life in balance and under control can prove to be one of the most important components in maximizing performance and potential.
“I wanted to let you know what a profound impact the coaching process has had on my personal life. I have
more time for my wife who is starting to feel valued again. As a result, we are experiencing more closeness as a
couple and our relationship is benefiting. My home life is improving. The reality is that I’m starting to enjoy
my job more and my personal life is becoming more rewarding. I am a fan of your process and I look forward to
our future retreats.”
—Justin T., Senior Executive, Nebraska
