Default Anyone willing to be my coach

Hello Sri,

It appears that your goal is to qualify to become a CPA. As you said, “I have one of the most important challenges of my life just ahead.” I assume you will grow and improve as a person in a number of ways to achieve this goal, becoming more disciplined, being just one-way.

Using a life coach to achieve this goal is an excellent way to succeed, and at a much faster pace than you would without a coach. Where Tony Robbins gives wonderful advice, your coach will make sure you complete your goals. Smart move.

You also require this coach to work on your behalf for free. One of the most critical conditions to achieving your goals through coaching is that you invest something into the process. After all you will be growing and improving as a person. You are the most important asset you will ever have. When you paid for your schooling, you were investing in you. When you pay for the CPA exams, you will be investing in you. Etc.

Yet, now you refuse to invest in you. Your coach must do all of the investing.

Contrary to some recommendations given here, I recommend strongly that you do not meet your coach. Your success rate triples by not meeting your coach. Your amount of time to succeed will be reduced in half by not meeting your coach. Plus, and this appears to be a very big one for you, your chances of connecting with a life coach who will allow you to offer some other form of investment in you, other than money, is excellent with a phone coach.

You can contact any of the over 250 coaching schools to find recent graduates who would be willing to coach you without a fee payment but would seek other forms of investment from you, that you might be willing to do. Like provide accounting services as trade. Since these schools graduate approximately 10,000 new coaches a year, your chances look real good.
