A Storm IS on the Horizon!

“The future belongs to those who prepare for it today.” - Malcolm X

Life Coaching isn’t only meant for people that feel unfulfilled or lost.

In fact, most of my clients are already doing okay.Coaching is best served for people who aren’t completely down and out...yet.

They’re actually doing better than most of the people who never think about how they're doing.

Because they know that at some point, more than likely, a storm will be on the horizon, and when it comes, they want to have a solid foundation for their life so it doesn’t destroy them once it arrives.

Too many people wait until they hit "rock bottom" before they ever seek improvement.

I get it. I was no different. It’s human nature.

But if you look around you, odds are you don’t want to be like most people.

If you’re reading this, it's likely you’re the type of person I’m speaking to. Someone who prepares for the difficult journey ahead, whether you can see it or not, so you don't up "in sh*t's creek without a paddle".

Envision this if you can...

Think about the family that has a generator with gas, clean water, canned goods, and an emergency plan in place.

Now think of the family that has no plan, waits to hear that a hurricane is one day out, and thinks they're going to run to the grocery store right before it hits.

That's exactly what almost everyone is going to be doing!I've lived in New York through Hurricane Sandy in 2012. I remember being unprepared and waiting on gas lines for 12-16 hours, only to be told it wasn't being delivered until the next day!

The restaurant I worked at no longer existed.

The school I went to was shut down for a week.

No power.

No banks open (and if they were, they weren't giving cash out).

The point is that SO many of us are living our lives exactly like this. We KNOW a storm will eventually hit in the form of one of the many obstacles life throws at us, yet we choose to do nothing to prepare.

To me, that's insanity.

It's wishful thinking.

It's unrealistic.

Because THERE IS a storm on the horizon!

Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, or even next month.

But storms are part of life, and it’s better to be prepared.

Build your body.

Fortify your mind.

Get your priorities in order.

Put effort into your relationships.

Start thinking of additional means of earning money.

How are YOU prepared for the storm ahead?
