What do the most successful coaches consistently do?

So Much.

Here are 24 of my Favorite Tips for Coaches as we Kick Off 2024!

1. Master the Secret - Just because you have a negative thought does not mean you have to believe it.

2. Live by the 20-40-60 Rule - Don’t worry about what others think.

3. Stay Positive - Your attitude determines your altitude.

4. Be an Energy Giver - Positive energy is contagious.

5. Water Your Own Grass - Remember, the Grass is Greenest where you Water it the Most.

6. Develop Your Leaders - Develop a plan to build your team leaders systemically. If you need help, check out my Team Leader OS: COACH.

7. Comparison is the Thief of Joy - Do NOT compare yourself to others.

8. Be a Great Teammate - We are all teammates in life. Be a great one!

9. Habits WIN - Find 3 Great Habits to start 2024 with and focus on these habits. Do not worry about goals.

10. No Blaming or Complaining - All this does is bring negative energy. Come up with a solution if you bring up the problem.

11. Culture WINS - Building Culture is the #1 Job of a Coach.

12. Lead Yourself First - We are all leaders. Lead by example and take care of yourself before you try to lead others.

13. Culture is Every Day - Remember that culture never arrives. You must build it every day.

14. Show Gratitude - It is the most important thing we can do.

15. No Deposit - No Return - There are no secrets to success. You must put in the work.

16. Relentless Consistency Wins - More often than not, the one who is standing at the end is simply the one who keeps going with relentless consistency.

17. Read More - Try to read more books than you did this year!

18. Remember Your Why - This is so crucial as a coach. It grounds you for the tough times.

19. Get to vs. Have To - Focus on the fact that you “Get To” do things. It is a slight shift in attitude that will reap big rewards.

20. Failure is Growth - Control the message of failure with you and your team.

21. Relationships - Make time for the most critical relationships in your life.

22. Smile and Laugh More - Life is short.

23. Family First - Make sure you make time for your family. Coaching is a grind. Don’t lose sight of your family.

24. Enjoy the RIDE! - Coaching is a journey. Enjoy each and every day. Create memories that will last a lifetime!
