The Irony of Coaching

Here is coaching’s biggest irony.

When you let go of trying to be a good coach, you become a better coach.

Imagine you are a client in a coaching session. Close your eyes. Feel your inner brilliance.

When you have that, why add the clutter of a coach’s cleverness?

Simple curiosity is enough.
