Oriente’s Advice For New Coaches"},"content":{"rendered":"

The following is taken from David’s interview with Earnest F. Oriente in\u00a010 Super Coaches<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What words of advice would you give to a coach starting out?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Have fun in your business, enjoy the clients you\u2019re working with, and quite frankly, be the very best coach that you can be, because people in your hands are giving you their lives and they\u2019re asking for your help. So be very respectful, always, of the work you\u2019re doing.<\/p>\n

Be clear on your passion. Have a passion for the work you\u2019re doing. Recognize you\u2019re touching the lives of people that you\u2019re working with. Be clear on the work that you\u2019re doing, that it\u2019s fun, that it\u2019s joyful, that you love the particular clients that you\u2019re working with.<\/p>\n

But never lose sight \u2013 this is sort of Covey\u2019s principle \u2018focus with the end in mind\u2019. As you look to the horizon what\u2019s the next step?<\/p>\n

If I were looking at the horizon, initially: I needed to replace my income from my corporate days. But really from there it was, number one: subscribers. Number two, more subscribers. Number three, now I want to be in the magazines, the same magazines read by those subscribers. That was the next step. Then the next step, I wanted to have some alliances and even more exposure, speak at upcoming conferences. And then there was the next step, writing a book to tie it all together. I\u2019ve always been able to look over the horizon twelve, fifteen miles in front of me and say \u2018what does the next parade look like?\u2019.<\/p>\n

So I would encourage those coaches who are thinking about their business to work both in their business, but don\u2019t forget to work on your business. Have a vision for what the bigger game is. Have a vision for what the next parade is.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
