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

What were the biggest doubts you had in your early months?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My biggest fear was not getting enough clients to make a living \u2013 I focused on my business plan and kept positive! Sure, it was a process, I didn\u2019t launch my practice and then immediately get inundated with clients on day one, it was a process of carefully building up public awareness and trust.<\/p>\n

What was most disheartening for you while building your practice?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Often I met people who were cynical and disinterested in coaching, dismissing it as a new-age warm fuzzies fad. I had to consciously hold my head high and be confident abou the power of coaching and remind myself that these people were not my ideal clients, while not judging them in return.<\/p>\n

What was the most interesting or exciting thing for you about building your practice?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The success stories! It\u2019s an incredibly rewarding career (especially when you partner with a client on their road to success), and it also allows you a flexible, autonomous work environment.
