My Thoughts: Coaches & Trainers
“I consider myself a world class Athlete, and even a world class Athlete needs a coach and a trainer” Andrew
While I was in Vegas, I had an incredible dinner with some amazing people. We had the opportunity to share ideas, thoughts and philosophies. A conversation with Andrew, who I now consider a friend, resulted in me staying awake all night, pondering my next move.
We often go through life thinking we have it all figured out. When we argue or meet points of contention, we often fire back with things like “love me or leave me alone”, “this is how I am, live with it” or “Don’t try to change me” But what if we accepted to be changed, or even considered for a moment that the people who are great are constantly changing. I came to the understanding that the people who are constantly evolving and changing have coaches in their corner, people pushing them every single day to be better and greater.
Even the world-class athlete has to show up for practice and learn to be better. After our conversation I could not help but wonder: who were my coaches or trainers? Who are the people who are constantly in my corner pushing me every day?
You can have all the skill in the world, but you need someone who is going to help you refine it. I have not fully expanded on this thought but I wanted to share it with you guys!
Thanks Andrew!
