So that’s this week, but what about last week and the week before?
Marcus here had a son aged two and had just started his branding business.
Getting a business off the ground is tough and it took it’s toll on Marcus.
He felt sluggish and it was starting to show.
He tried diets and exercise apps, but all were short lived. He couldn’t focus on it. He had too much on already.
He kept telling himself he’ll get it sorted when he has more time.
But then Marcus booked in a photoshoot. He wanted to get some good photos of him working, but after booking it, all he could think about was his midriff.
He put on his favourite suit and he knew didn’t look the part. Disappointment set in. What impression would he be giving off of his business?
He knew he couldn’t put it off any longer, he had to do something.
Marcus knew he needed a plan, he needed clarity and structure. Even more importantly he needed someone to take that pressure off
him.
We got to work and started to make some changes. I knew Marcus had a deadline, but even so, we stuck with the ethos, progress over perfection.
It worked. The weight was coming off, Marcus was starting to feel more energised and positive.
But a few weeks in, half a stone down, Marcus wanted more and he wanted it now.
Marcus came onto his call and suggested a huge change. I felt it was too much alongside work and family, but he was convinced.
A week later, his results continued to drop at the same rate.
On our call I could see the frustration in his face.
He talked and talked and I listened. All that effort, all that sacrifice and he’d got no further.
We scaled things back and Marcus trusted the process.
The shoot came, the suit fitted and Marcus felt fantastic.
Marcus got the end result he wanted and he did it alongside his business and raising his young son.
There is never a perfect time to take action. You will always have something coming up. Right now, it’s the school holidays, then it’ll be Halloween and before we know it, Christmas.
I’ve got one-to-one coaching spots available this month. DM me to see if we’re a fit.
