She can dance, too?

Breaking News Flash: YOU are the President of YOU, Inc.  As President, you are responsible for the entire company: Sales, Marketing, Operations, Customer Service, Brand Management - the works. Success or failure of You, Inc. ultimately falls on your shoulders.  No pressure or anything, right?

Being the President is a tough job – the stress involved can be enormous.  This is precisely the reason why a great President is intentional about assembling a talented team of people around him (or her) to lean on for support. 

In my mind, the most critically important role in a President’s support team is the “First Lady” - his best friend, closest confidant, and biggest fan.  Thankfully, I have been blessed to have found my ”First Lady” in my beautiful wife Beth.   

Now, I want to help other men find their First Lady through the magical powers of 1-on-1 Coaching.  Here is how we do it:  

PHASE I – PREPARING YOU TO STEP-UP AS PRESIDENT

Purpose: Learn about yourself deeply and prepare for a serious relationship.

1. PAST - Who Were You?
   • What is your dating story and what can we learn about the mistakes you have made?
2. NOW - Who Are You and What Needs to Change? 
   • MENTAL - What do you you think about the majority of the time and what needs to change? 
   • PHYSICAL - How physically fit are you and what needs to change?    
   • FINANCIAL - How healthy are your financially and what needs to change? 
   • RELATIONSHIPS (Friends and Family) – How vibrant are your relationships with friends and family and what needs to change?
   • CAREER – How passionate and excited are you about your career and what needs to change? 
   • PERSONAL BRANDING – What is unique and exceptional about you? (ie. Selling Yourself)
   • COMMUNICATION AND RELATIONSHIP BUILDING SKILLS – How skilled are you at asking powerful questions, acknowledgement, and helping other people?
   • RISK TAKING THRESHOLD - How much risk do you take in life? How can we put you into uncomfortable situations to increase the level of risk you are willing to take on?
3. FUTURE - Who are you Becoming?
   • Who are you in 25 and50 years after being happily married?  

PHASE II – FINDING YOUR MICHELLE OBAMA

Purpose: Be strategic in developing a “Game Plan” to find your ideal woman.

1. Who is she?  What does she look and sound like?  
2. Where do you meet her?
3. When is she there?
4. How do you make contact with her?
5. What do you say?
6. Why should she go out with you?

Notice that this is not at all picking up, getting laid, exploiting, or manipulating a woman. It is about learning deeply about yourself and taking confident action with accountability.

KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES:

One of the biggest value added pieces of Coaching is accountability.  As I mentioned yesterday, reading a book on relationships will not cut it if you just put it down and never actually do anything.  Instead, Coaching helps you apply what you are learning, making it go deep, and having someone kick your ass if you don’t do what you say you will do.

In this program, your accountabilities: 

1. Homework Journal - I will give you homework each week.  You need a place to record your answers, learning, and progress.
2. Fulfill My Challenges – I will push you to your limits of what’s “possible” or “comfortable.”
3. Develop Your “Personal Playbook” – a detailed description of You, Inc.
4. Develop Your “Game Plan” to find your ‘Michelle Obama’

What I am accountable for:

1. Provide Discipline – book/pay for appointments in advance, no cancellation within 24 hours, ensure you follow through on commitments/accountabilities, challenge you when you hide or are evasive. 
2. Ask You Powerful Questions to help create learning.
3. Encourage and Acknowledge Who You Are at your Core.
4. Provide Challenges that Push You into Action

My Ambitious Goal (I LIKE TO THINK BIG!)

I want to have you in a solid, ‘marriage minded’ relationship in 6-12 months.  Or, if you want to really be pushed, invite me to your Engagement Party in 12 months so that we can celebrate one of the greatest accomplishments of your life.

So, if you are a Young Professional Man frustrated because you have not found your “Michelle Obama,” I can help. Contact me today to set-up a 25 minute phone conversation to discuss what we need to do to get you back on the right track.
