You’re nimble and flexible. You can do much on your own — maybe more than you’d like to do.
Even if you have the time and budget, you can’t outsource everything. For example, you can’t hire anyone to exercise or diet for you. Well, you can but you won’t get results.
Say you want to build trust in our transparent world. You must do the weight lifting yourself. LinkedIn is an essential tool. I’ve shared my best tips via
- a 30 day action plan
- video and other resources
- presentations / workshops / 1:1 advice
Personalization
Even solid content needs adjustments to suit your specific situation. Otherwise, you risk looking generic.You might not know what to do. You might want to save time. Maybe this is when to hire a coach. The right coach makes a big difference. Much of my learning comes from learning, thinking and experimenting. I’ve still used coaches over the years.
Accountability
Habits take time to build. Bad habits take time to vanish.You might need outside discipline until your new scripts are engrained. I participate in masterminds. A Pick Four goals group may help (and you can start one). A coach is another option.
Independence
When you’re paying for help, look for ways to limit the cost and duration.As an example, we've been wanting to get physically fit for years. We couldn’t make sense of the conflicting advice and didn’t exercise consistently. At the end of a busy day, pizza has more pull than the gym. Our son is out of town, studying at my alma mater, Western University. He’s taken the initiative to get fit and he
- Developed a fitness plan for us
- Showed us the exercises
- Guided us during the holidays
If what you’re doing isn’t getting you to your goals, you may need coaching until you’re self-sufficient.
