The 3 C's of Life
"Choices, Chances, Changes: You must make a choice to take a chance or your life will never change." ~Zig Zigler
Picture this: A man in a room with 6 doors to choose from. He doesn't know where each door will lead, only that each one will lead him out of the current situation he's in. Some paths may be easy, some may be difficult, but he won't know until he commits to that path by opening the door. Now, he can choose to stay where he is - where it's familiar and comfortable, but what's that do for his future? Choosing not to take a chance to make a change leaves you in a room with unopened doors and a situation that remains unchanged. Are you happy enough with your current situation that you can leave it as is and live with it for the next 1, 3, 5, 10+ years?
If fear of change is creeping in, let's chat about it in your next coaching session!
All my best!

Myth #2: The secret to success is to find a career doing something I love.
The Seven Myths About Franchise Ownership, excerpt from Your Career Revolution by Terry Powell & TES Ownership Coaches, 2022.
TRUTH: Businesses founded on the owner's background, experience, or knowledge have the highest incidence of failure. Ouch! That seems counterintuitive, doesn't it? The reality is that business owners have various responsibilities ranging from business development to accounting to delivering the service or product and more. If you create a business around a hobby or a passion and ignore the other important business elements, the thing you used to love so much, will soon become the thing you dread. On the flip side, if you restrict your options to things you're already good at or already love, you shut down a universe of possibilities.
Here's a fun fact: Most franchise business owners are in a business today that they had no previous experience in or are in an industry they had no initial affinity toward. Crazy, right? And yet, franchise owners commonly outperform their independent counterparts. How do we know this? In our almost forty years of working with clients exploring alternate career options, 95 percent of those who have chosen a franchise have ended up in one they admit they never would have looked at on their own -- or had looked at but dismissed prematurely.
Revisit Myth #1: Finding the right business will make me successful from July.
