5-Reps: Market Saturation, Workout jargon, and How to Guarantee Good Luck

Happy 5-Reps Friday!

Moving on, here are 2 coaching concepts, 2 business nuggets, and a quote to consider this week.

2 Coaching Concepts

1.

Teach client’s workout jargon. They’ll show up more once they feel like they belong.

9 more quick tips

2.

A few times a year, hand your client a paper with three questions:

  1. What’s one thing you’d like me to stop doing?
  2. What’s one thing you’d like me to start doing?
  3. What’s one thing you’d like me to keep doing?

2 Business Nuggets

1.

You can guarantee good luck with preparation and patience so long as you don’t get distracted. The key is to consistently execute on ‘good enough’ things for extended periods of time.

Once initial excitement wears off and the day-to-day routine sits in, boredom often leads to procrastination which leads to a search for a better way.

The hard part isn’t choosing your actions, it’s sticking with them.

2.

If there is a secret to success, it isn’t to wait to try and get it perfect. Nobody can guarantee a win today. But you can skew the odds in your favour by doing two things:

  1. Consistently making good decisions, and
  2. Showing up long enough for the odds to play out.

Stock Your Library at the Lowest Price Ever

I’ve decided to keep the paperback versions of my books on sale for a few more days.

This is an absolutely insane deal. Regular price for all three is $67.97.

Please stock your library by going to your local Amazon and buying them all right away.

For context, these discounts are so big that I make $0 from any sales.

(Prices vary worldwide. In all regions they are the lowest Amazon will allow and I make $0.)
