Do You Need a Coach?

Everyone needs a coach. I was blind to this fact for a long time. If you listen to my podcast or read my blogs, you’ll often hear me talk about it. It’s funny—when we get into business, we somehow think we’re supposed to navigate everything on our own, which doesn’t make much sense.

A coach—or rather, the right coach—will help you get through obstacles much quicker. To me, it’s kind of like the importance of discipleship. When I was being discipled, people walked with me for almost a year as a new believer, guiding me step by step. Trying to figure it all out alone would’ve been overwhelming. The same is true for business: it’s far too much for you to tackle on your own.

I remember when my dad handed me off to the pee wee coach to teach me the fundamentals of football. That coach taught me core principles that, while simple, had a lasting impact. Things like discipline, teamwork, perseverance, and paying attention to the details. Those same fundamentals apply in business. You learn to trust the process, rely on the expertise of others, and focus on mastering the basics before advancing to the next level. My dad trusted that coach to prepare me for the next phase in football, just like we need to trust a business coach to equip us for the next level in our entrepreneurial journey.

Anyone who’s ever done something great always had a coach. The key is being willing to invest in one and, just as importantly, being teachable. I love to say that you can go at it alone, but you don’t have to.

God Bless The Entrepreneur.
