i chatted to tim about his book
We don’t always realise that our actions and what we do are governed by our beliefs about ourselves and how we feel about ourselves.
When I coach students and younger professionals, they often identify their challenges as “I’m not DOING something”. (Studying, working etc). They want me to help their behaviour.
When we talk more about it, we find that they struggle to DO the thing, because they’re afraid of something. Looking bad, failing, disappointing people or themselves, are some common fears. In order to change their behaviour, we generally need to work on their internal beliefs about themselves.
I was fortunate enough to have Tim as my performance coach a few years back. I would love all the people I work with to get the same value and benefits that I did.
He’s written a book, “Game Changer Protocol”, which I believe is really valuable. I had a chat to him about why he wrote it, what it’s for, what it can help people with, who it can help, and my experience with these challenges and what I’ve learnt.
