If coaching is an improvised act then we could argue that makes planning a questionable act. Which makes it difficult to proceed with certainty when it comes to creating boundaries for your coaching practice.
Here are two boundaries that you might recognise.
In the pursuit of less Greg McKeown argues “ We need to learn the slow yes and the quick no.”
Yet, Derek Sivers in the book Hell Yeah or No, argues for a fast yes. Anything less than a “hell yeah” leaves us no time and space to focus only on the things that matter the most.
What to do?
Before concerning yourself with a tool, opinion or advice, ensure you are clear on what your success looks like. Intent is your guide.
What do you want to experience?
What do you want to feel?
If you want to act with passion, perhaps try Derek Siver’s advice and if you want to act with caution proceed very carefully with the advice of Greg McKeown.
We all have an opinion but very few of us are matched for success and you are the only one who knows how you want to feel.
My advice is to try it on for size and it if fits and makes you feel good, you know it’s the one for you.
