The following is an excerpt of an actual transaction between David and a client in Top Coaching Techniques<\/a>.<\/p>\n

David: I\u2019ve got an idea. Is it possible that at least one day out of the past 365 that you\u2019ve set yourself targets that cannot actually be achieved in a day?<\/p>\n

Client: [Laughing] Yes. A lot more than one, I would think.<\/p>\n

David: Is it possible that could be a factor in your frustration?<\/p>\n

Client: Yes, probably so.<\/p>\n

David: Right.<\/p>\n

Client: That\u2019s why it is hard to not get frustrated if you have goals, and don\u2019t achieve them. It\u2019s a permanent state of frustration.<\/p>\n

David: I can relate. I spent most of the last year in that space. At the end of each day I was constantly frustrated because I wouldn\u2019t have achieved everything that I had said I wanted to. I have some quotes for you that will set the scene, and then I\u2019ll get practical. So, \u2018When you die, your inbox will not be empty.\u2019 Right?<\/p>\n

Client: Yeah.<\/p>\n

David: Actually, I\u2019m going to leave it at one quote. So that\u2019s always going to happen. Now, I wonder what it would be like for you, I really do, to set targets for the next 7 days that you could actually hit \u2013 and hit them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
