As I’ve not made an update on where the coaching is up to since the first module, I’m going to give a quick summary of the ALL the modules right up to date. This is going to be the first of 2 posts.

Module #1

This module was all about goals & planning ahead. Here are a few of things we learnt:

• To start small, but think big. This basically means although we are just starting out, there is no harm in thinking about the big things we will be able to achieve in the future. By thinking about the things we want to achieve, we can then start to plan backwards from that end goal, to find out all the things we need to do, learn or outsource in order to achieve it.

So last time I said I would go further into why I am now about 95% more productive than normal, & I’m being serious when I say that, I really was getting nothing done. Well as I said in the last post, it’s all about having a plan, but not just any old plan. No, it has to be well structured & organized, you see I have made business plans in the past, but I was doing it blindly. My idea of a plan before was, have a few ideas, write them down, then somehow try to make them work. When I think about that now it is no wonder I wasn’t getting anywhere, it might have been a plan of kinds, but it wasn’t organized.

So what Alex has made us realize is, “Know that end goal, & plan backwards from there.” The whole planning backwards thing sounded funny at first, but it’s obvious that is what you should do when you really think about it.
