I actually got in touch with Tony Robbins coaching and was lucky enough to get in touch with http://www.brookbishop.com/ who is one of their very best coaches, which was awesome luck.

He does a free life coaching session, so if you contact him do mention that you had heard about it from me. (not an affiliate or anything) :-)

Brook did a 20 -30 minute consult, and from that I decided a heap of goals, and in particular to leave my current job.

Under the steam from that I moved to a new role which was 70% over my previous pay and one that challenged me greatly.

My decision was if I could get that sort of result from just that small amount of coaching, and get some actual traction towards my goals, my thinking was that I should go all out and pay for the full year coaching with the senior coaches.

At the time this was about 10% of my years salary, so it wasn't a small commitment, but my logic was that I would be more committed to getting the most out of my time with the coach (eg even if they were average which they weren't I would really listen as it meant a lot to me).

So I went to the new role for about 4 months, and did realise that it wasn't for me either, but having the coach there, made me work harder, and far more effectively than not.

I have actually gone into business for myself (a big risk and one that I have literally been putting off for about 11 years).

I now own 5 separate companies, and anticipate to retire (no longer have to work) in the next 6 months.

I am easily the happiest, healthiest and most productive I have been in my life.

One of the outcomes is that Ben has said that my coaching skills are awesome, so I have in turn actually started coaching as well 

So if you want to help me to pay the favors forward, I have a free 30 minute coaching session to give you a feeling for what it is like, and whether I will make a difference in your life too! :-)

Upshot being - it is awesome, get a great coach, and do it sooner rather than later.
