Teaching Series: After 14 Years of Coaching, This Is What I See Hold Most People Back
The Art of AccomplishmentShow Notes
7 patterns. Almost everyone I've ever coached.
For about six months, Joe wrote down the stuck point he saw at the end of every coaching session, then sorted them. Thousands of sessions collapsed into seven categories. In this video he walks through each one in order. The order matters.
Each pattern comes with a story from Joe's own life — the friend who taught him the difference between dirty fuel and clean fuel, the day at 24 he went out into the woods and learned to cry again, the list he wrote of everything he didn't like about himself and what changed eight months later, the friend who wouldn't let him defend himself.
