From there, you can make the choices you need to make to get it done. There’s another question you have to ask yourself:

I think I was having the same conversation along with you but there is a lot to say for putting your stuff out there and saying "I did that, I accomplished that, I did what I set out to do" and yes, I think sometimes there are books that are meant to be written, that can speak to a reader and make a difference in their life. Btw, I tried emailing you back and I keep getting failures. Oh well :) Hey, Good post.

Getting to the WHY is so important! It's how you set your goals, how you keep going when you don't want to, and it keeps your end goal in perspective. Why do I want to be a coach? Because I know that I was put on this earth to help people, to serve them and really and truly raise their lives to another level in some way. It's not the money, even though I do have to make an income to do this full time, a livable income, not necessarily a life of the rich and famous income. It's not about working from home, although that is one of the motivational factors that keeps me going. But also, working from home and being able to stay home with my children (future) will help me to be the best person I can be, which will aid me in being the best coach I can be, which will allow me to help people to the best of my ability. It all comes back to my WHY. I have to, need to, burn to help people. Great post! Getting to the WHY is so important!
