Self Assessment

At some point since you launched your business you’ve probably asked yourself

Does every business owner and entrepreneur feel like this or is it just me?

It’s not just you. Every client or colleague I talk to has thought to themselves

• When does this get easier
• I’m doing so much, so why do I feel like I’m not getting anywhere
• Am I doing the right things
• Why am I’m exhausted and feel like I don’t have much to show for it
• I have so many ideas, how do I choose which one to pursue
• I know what to do, why can’t I do it
• Why am I doing this

Feel better knowing you’re not alone?

Good.

Ready to feel different moving forward?

Great!

To help you get started, I recommend using this end-of-year/beginning-of-next reflection time to

1. Celebrate all the things you’ve accomplished (especially the small things that often get overlooked)
2. Sharpen your vision for your business by getting as specific as possible about your desired end-result - what success looks like for you
3. Translate your desire into action by setting specific goals for the year and working backwards by quarter, month, and week to dial in your focus

It’s usually with steps two and three where you may want some help.

That’s why the next step is incredibly important.

Now ask yourself, am I ready to do something different? Am I ready to work with someone who can help me feel more confident, capable, and competent in my role as a business owner?

In my experience, the best time to engage a business coach is when you’ve decided

• I don’t like how I’m feeling, and
• I’m ready to work with someone to get different, better results than I’m getting on my own.

To help you identify whether you’re ready to start talking to coaches to find the right one for you,

I’ve created a short self assessment to help you tune into what you’re feeling and get more clarity about what changes you want to make to take your business from where you are to where you want to be.

It’s a mix of questions that I hope will help you get in touch with your feelings about what you’re experiencing and whether you’ve had enough. Likewise, if you’re ready to do different things to get different results, this will help you start to identify which improvements will produce the biggest result for you.

If you’re not ready, that’s OK. This exercise will still help you decide where to focus your efforts moving forward.

But if you’re ready to start talking with coaches to find someone you think can help you get the results you’re looking for, now you’ll have a good idea of what you’ll want to accomplish together and what successful outcomes will look and feel like for your business. There’s nothing more you need to do to prepare to engage a coach.
