Mistakes We’ve Made (And Learned From) (Online Trainer Show #12)

It doesn’t feel good to make mistakes. But it’s when we mess things up that we learn and make tremendous progress. When we try to work on our muscles, we work to failure, which builds some muscle that enables you to lift more. It’s the same thing with mistakes! Join Jonathan, Carolina, and Ren talk about the different mistakes they’ve made and how they’ve used their experience to leverage their success moving forward.

 

In This Episode:

• Vapor rubs and meeting Ren for the first time [00:01]
• Building muscles after failing over and over [24:11]
• The day Carolina lost three clients in a day [27:38]
• Setting up good expectations [34:06]
• Continue doing the things that are working for you [39:57]

 
"That's the cool thing about progress - is that no matter how well you plan something, no matter how much you know about something going into it, the odds that it's going to work out the exact way you planned are basically zero." - Jonathan Goodman 

 

Taking Too Many At One Time – Not Procrastinating
Be aware of your limitations and work within your means. Doing more than your capabilities will likely result in a loss of clients because you won’t be able to give what you promise.

 

Building Great Systems for Communication
When you’re observing your clients making significant progress, they might think that you’re not doing your job because you’re not switching things up! Listen and ask the right questions. Know when you need to communicate and how to communicate.

 

Find the Snowball and Keep it Rolling
You don’t have to keep doing new things and creating new projects. If you find something that works for you, make sure to capitalize on the success it brings to the table!
