Business Cards

I've just given out a load of my new business cards to people at work. Really bizarre sensation! I'm actually shaking a little from the worry of what people would say. Most people logged straight on to my website. Which again, caused me stress. Mainly because I'm worried about spelling mistakes or something silly that would embarrass me.

I guess I just thought that people would look at the card and say something trivial and then forget about it. But instead they started asking lots of questions instead.

Well hopefully I'll be a little less surprised at the response next time.

2 new possible coaching clients!

Wow after just a few days my new website http//www.pgbailey.com has drawn the atttention of two people interested in receiving some life coaching sessions.

As I am still training I'm offering 6 free sessions as these will give me credits towards my final qualification.

I'll let you know if they do decide to take me up on my offer.

Also today my business cards turned up. Every small step seems to take me closer to becoming a life coach for real.

What is a life coach

For those in the USA, I'm sure you have all heard of a life coach and what they are. Some may have already used their service. Would be interesting to find out if you benefitted from it or found it a waste of time.

For us in the UK mentioning the phrase "Life Coach" causes and instant look of confusion as people try to work out which sport it relates to. Their next reaction tends to be one of - "So it's like councelling then?"

So to quickly some up. A life coach is someone that will help you achieve your goals in the shortest time possible. If you aren't sure what those goals are, a life coach is someone you can bounce ideas off and will help you find out what is really important to you, then your life coach will help you work towards acheiveing that goal.

But please be gentle I'm still working on it.
