3 Types of People

I confess that I stole this quote from Benjamin Franklin (I'm sure he wouldn't mind). I use it a lot because it's so relevant to the world of coaching.

3 Types of People - NoMoreNerves.com
"All mankind is divided into three classes: 
- those who are immovable; 
- those who are movable; and 
- those who move." 
Benjamin Franklin


For me, it's all about making a decision. Deciding to be open to new ideas, beliefs and experiences. Once that decision is made, a huge power and energy is unleashed which fuels you on the journey towards your goals.

When this happens my clients, it's like a switch that gets flicked and the results are amazing to see :-)

It doesn't have to be perfect

When he made this best man speech, I bet that YouTube star Ollie didn't think that over 2.2 million people would see it! Now that's what I call an audience! 


This is a good example of how you don't need an AMAZING or PERFECT speech - your success is mostly down to delivery (and obviously a decent amount or preparation!).

Because he's genuine, has clearly practiced it, has a smile on his face and is delivering it with confidence, people are loving it. It's nice and short too which shows that your speech doesn't have to be like one of The Lord of the Rings movies!
