Sort of like in marketing when your guarantee is based upon the usual downsides to the business you're in; e.g.: if you're a plumber, you guarantee that you won't be late and your won't leave a mess, as these are the two biggest complaints in the industry.
Am I correct to think that this is the kind of questioning I need to do?
I think I have the same problem when it comes to computer repair jobs & web design - I don't value having repair or design skills because they're practically inherent to me.
If I were practicing your suggestion of "find a need and fill it," I assume that I would value the coaching job if in fact people needed career coaching. You're right about self-doubt, I have a hard time convincing myself that people need my help, but I'm not sure why!
