I had a similar experience the other day… I had offered a business coaching session to a friend. We had worked together before and I knew she was keen to get support… So I didn’t understand why she kept trying to put it off.

When we finally did get to the session, I found out. She was feeling uncertain about where she was going and what she was doing with her business. Perhaps things had shifted for her since our last session together, and she was embarrassed that she wasn’t more “together”.

Perhaps she also thought she would get more value out of the session if she knew more about what she was doing.

The funny thing is, that’s what I do – I help business people get clear, so they can move forward!

The happy ending is – we had the session and she was a lot clearer as a result.

Another analogy – For health reasons, I’ve recently had to take a break from housework (I know, poor me! )… So for the first time, we’ve had a cleaner come in once a week.

We’ve suffered the same as everyone else – the strong desire to clean up *before* the cleaner arrives…

But resisting the urge, I’ve found it MUCH more fun to muck in and do what I can when the cleaner is here.

Sometimes, it’s just more fun doing stuff together.
