Time marches on

"We are the hollow men We are the stuffed men Leaning together Headpiece filled with straw. Alas! Our dried voices, when We whisper together Are quiet and meaningless As wind in dry grass Or rats' feet over broken glass In our dry cellar

Shape without form, shade without colour, Paralysed force, gesture without motion;"

-- the Hollow Men by T.S.Eliot

Yesterday, I received the paperback version of Robert Crawford’s second part of T.S.Eliot’s biography. I have the first part in hardback. I hope I’ll get time to read it in the next few weeks.

Anyhow, what of the poem? (I have only shared the first/2nd stanza.)

It’s one of my favourite poems. I first read about it in Michael Gerber’s book, The E-Myth Revisited in the section called “Letter to Sarah” which seems to take on more prescience each day given that it harks back to David Riesman, Dostoevsky, Rollo May and of course T.S.Eliot and not to our latest obsession of being artificially intelligenced. 

I jest of course. I’m sure that they’ll be a place for AI given all the money that continues to flow in its direction. But then I think what else that money could be used for? And I can think of a 101 more useful things not least the possibility of arresting the terminal decline of this once great planet which we’ve so traduced all in the name of ‘progress’. Frankly, I think it’s chortle-worthy to imagine how we could have messed things up so badly and still have our foot pressed firmly to the pedal.

But, hey, what do I know?

And in any event, I won’t be around for very much longer and it’ll be my kids who’ll have to deal with our disinterest in all things animistic.

Anyhow, tis Friday. Time to get suited and booted one last time before the weekend. Still, I’ve got this event to look forward to which will (thank god) take me out the fray for a few days.

Blessings dear people of the Tumblr world.

Why Business Owners Should Mix Strategy with Hands-On Involvement

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Conventional wisdom says to work on the business, not in the business. That sounds like good advice, but is there more to it?

Trenerze: Czy Jesteś Niewolnikiem Swojego Biznesu?

W światłach neonów Twojej siłowni, między kolejnymi seriami przysiadów i konsultacjami, tkwi prawda, której wielu trenerów nie dostrzega... 

Jest nią fakt, że nawet najbardziej zapracowany trener, który ma mnóstwo podopiecznych, nie zawsze jest prawdziwym przedsiębiorcą.

Michael E. Gerber genialnie opisuje to zjawisko w swojej książce „Mit Przedsiębiorczości”. 

Autor obala w niej iluzje dotyczące prowadzenia własnego biznesu, które równie mocno dotyczą naszej branży.

Tylko popatrz… 

Ciężko harujesz od rana do nocy. Zapełniasz grafik treningami, rozpisujesz plany. Ale mimo to Twój biznes stoi w miejscu. Brzmi znajomo?

To pułapka, w którą bardzo łatwo wpaść. Dzieje się tak, kiedy skupiasz się tylko na pracy w firmie, a nie poświęcasz czasu na pracy nad firmą.

Co jest widoczne w przypadku większości trenerów, którym wydaje się, że prowadzą biznes, a tak naprawdę stają się jego niewolnikami.

Mało tego! Większość z nich nawet nie zdaje sobie z tego sprawy.

Jak zatem wydostać się z tej pułapki i zacząć pracować nad własnym biznesem, a nie tylko w nim? Jak przejąć kontrolę nad swoim czasem, tak aby nie skupiać się tylko na treningach, ale również skutecznie rozwijać swój biznes trenera?

Przygotuj się na podróż, która nie tylko zdemaskuje pewne mity, ale również otworzy Ci oczy na temat prowadzenia własnego biznesu!

Czy Padłeś Ofiarą Złych Założeń?

Większość trenerów, którzy zakładają firmę (o ile w ogóle zakładają), pada ofiarą fatalnego założenia…

Skoro mam mega wiedzę i być może doświadczenie w prowadzeniu treningów, to przecież rozumiem, jak powinien działać trenerski biznes!

Takie myślenie, to powód upadku większości małych firm. A także nie wykorzystania pełnego potencjału. 

Brak kompetencji biznesowych powoduje, że trenerzy nie zarabiają tyle, ile by mogli, nawet jako pracownik!

Praca jako trener, a prowadzenie firmy zajmującej się treningami, to dwie całkowicie różne rzeczy. Jednak większość trenerów nie dostrzega tej różnicy…

Pracując jako trener na etacie, jeśli masz odpowiednią wiedzę, to chociażby będzie Ci łatwiej wynegocjować podwyżkę, czy lepsze warunki pracy.

Praca, która była wcześniej wykonywana z miłością, staje się rutyną. Dochodzi do niej mnóstwo o wiele mniej przyjemnych zadań (sprzedaż, planowanie, księgowość, marketing itd.), o których większość trenerów nie ma pojęcia.

Tu nasuwa się pytanie…

Specjalista, Menedżer, czy Przedsiębiorca - Kim Tak Naprawdę Jesteś w Swoim Biznesie Trenera?

W internecie można spotkać wielu trenerów, którzy myślą, że w momencie, w którym założyli działalność, stają się przedsiębiorcami. Jest w tym stwierdzeniu sporo prawdy, ale jednak nie do końca…

Według Michael’a Gerbera każda osoba mająca działalność staje się jednocześnie trzema osobami: przedsiębiorcą, menedżerem i specjalistą.

Wszystko byłoby dobrze gdyby powyższe trzy osobowości współistniały

w równowadze… W rzeczywistości jednak wygląda to zupełnie inaczej.

Specjalista w Biznesie Trenera

Niestety, ale jako trenerzy, często identyfikujemy się z rolą specjalisty - eksperta, który dąży do perfekcji w swojej dziedzinie. 

W naszym przypadku jest to pomoc w uzyskaniu jak najlepszych wyników sylwetkowych i zdrowotnych u naszych podopiecznych. 

To ta część nas, która ceni sobie praktyczną wiedzę i umiejętności ponad wszystko, skupiając się na 'tu i teraz' każdego treningu.

Skupienie się tylko i wyłącznie na tej roli niesie za sobą różne ryzyka i może prowadzić do upadku Twojego biznesu trenera.

Spędzamy dziesiątki godzin na sali i dokładnie analizujemy plany treningowe, niekoniecznie myśląc o tym, jak rozwijać firmę i skalować biznes. 

Stawiamy na rozwój swoich kompetencji pod kątem treningu, czy dietetyki, ale zapominamy o kluczowych umiejętnościach biznesowych, takich jak np. sprzedaż, czy marketing.

Wyważenie Roli Menedżera

Kiedy zajmujemy się treningami, łatwo jest skupić się wyłącznie na praktycznej stronie naszej pracy. 

Jednak bez solidnego zarządzania, każda firma (nawet ta z najlepszymi trenerami) może się potknąć i finalnie… upaść 😅

Menedżer to osoba, która wprowadza i odpowiada za struktury i procesy, umożliwiające efektywną pracę każdego dnia. 

To między innymi dzięki nim proces pozyskiwania nowych podopiecznych może być o wiele łatwiejszy i powtarzalny.

Menedżer odpowiada również za harmonogramy, czy odpowiednie zarządzanie czasem i finansami.

Aspiracje Przedsiębiorcy

Być przedsiębiorcą w branży fitness oznacza coś więcej, niż tylko śledzenie trendów, prowadzenie profilu na Instagramie i założenie działalności…

Wymaga to od Ciebie również bycia strategiem, który myśli i planuje długofalowo. A przede wszystkim potrafi wychwycić i wykorzystać nadarzające się okazje, aby rozwijać i skalować biznes.

Wniosek? Istnieje wielka różnica pomiędzy byciem samozatrudnionym a prowadzeniem firmy.

Nagłówek H2: Ślepa Uliczka Codzienności: Co Trenerzy Gubią Po Drodze?

Trener personalny to zawód, który łączy w sobie pasję do aktywności fizycznej i umiejętność motywowania oraz przemiany innych.

Jednak większość trenerów, którzy myślą o własnym biznesie, zbyt często zatrzymuje się na tym, co tu i teraz. 

Realizują kolejne sesje treningowe lub idą na kolejne szkolenie branżowe, a pozostawiają w cieniu te aspekty, które są kluczowe dla ich biznesu. To droga do donikąd.

Praca nad firmą, nie tylko w firmie

Wielu trenerów, którzy decydują się na własną działalność, zapomina, że praca nad firmą jest równie (a momentami nawet bardziej) istotna. 

Uważam, że każdy trener powinien znaleźć czas, aby usiąść z kalendarzem i strategicznie pomyśleć o przyszłości. 

Co mam na myśli? Analizowanie obecnej strategii, szukanie obszarów do poprawy, planowanie działań sprzedażowych oraz marketingowych. 

Bez tego łatwo wpaść w pułapkę, utknąć w rutynie codziennych zadań, zapomnieć o rozwoju własnego biznesu i finalnie zostać jego niewolnikiem. 

W tym temacie polecam Ci odcinek mojego podcastu z gościnnym udziałem freelance copywritera Roberta Szewczyka, który porzucił ciepły etat w banku (kliknij). 

Robert nie chciał nieustannie wymieniać swojego czasu za pieniądze i mieć coś więcej, co pozwoli mu zarabiać bez jego udziału.

Wskazówki dla Trenerów: Na początek znajdź czas i zaplanuj jeden dzień, czy chociaż konkretną liczbę godzin w tygodniu na pracę koncepcyjną nad rozwojem własnego biznesu.

Przejrzyj swoje metody dotyczące rozwoju marki oraz biznesu i zobacz, które działają, a które nie. Skup się na nich i rozwijaj. 

Przyjrzyj się swojej konkurencji. Zobacz, co robi i pomyśl, jak możesz przełożyć pewne rzeczy do swojej oferty.

Zarządzanie czasem - klucz do efektywności w biznesie trenera

Odpowiednie zarządzanie czasem to nie tylko zabezpieczenie przed wypaleniem zawodowym i zwiększenie satysfakcji klientów… To także fundament, na którym powinien być zbudowany Twój biznes trenera.

Jest to kluczowy element, który pozwala nie tylko na realizację bieżących zadań, ale i na ciągły rozwój osobisty i zawodowy. W końcu doba każdego z nas ma tylko 24 godziny 😉

Wskazówka dla Trenerów: Korzystaj z takich narzędzi jak Kalendarz Google. Planuj swój dzień i aktywności z wyprzedzeniem. 

Pamiętaj o odpoczynku! To nie luksus, a konieczność, jeśli myślisz długofalowo o swoim biznesie. Planuj regularne przerwy, które zapewnią Ci regenerację i pomogą utrzymać wysoką jakość świadczonych usług.

Planowanie - Twoja mapa do udanego biznesu

Skupienie na codziennych zadaniach to pułapka, która może ograniczyć potencjał rozwoju Twojego trenerskiego biznesu. 

Długoterminowe planowanie ułatwi Ci skupienie się na rzeczach, które są naprawdę ważne w danym momencie. W ten sposób będziesz mógł mierzyć postęp i adaptować się do dynamicznych zmian na rynku.

Pomocna w tej kwestii może okazać się macierz Eisenhowera:

Wskazówka dla Trenerów: Twoja firma ma służyć Tobie, a nie ty firmie. Określ jaką rolę w Twoim życiu powinna odgrywać. 

Zadaj sobie pytania:

Co najbardziej cenisz?

Jakie życie chcesz prowadzić?

Jak według ciebie powinno wyglądać Twoje życie?

Wyobraź sobie, gdzie chcesz być za kilka lat, a następnie wypisz wszystkie kroki, które musisz podjąć, aby to osiągnąć. 

Przygotuj plan działania, który będzie zgodny z tą wizją. Określ czy firma ma być twoim głównym zajęciem, czy dodatkowym. Czy chcesz być jej prezesem przez najbliższe 30 lat? Czy chcesz do końca życia w niej pracować?

Rozwój Niezbędnych Kompetencji

Jak już wiesz, większość trenerów wciela się w rolę specjalistów, którzy stawiają głównie na rozwój swoich kompetencji pod kątem treningu, czy dietetyki…

Jednak zaniedbują rozwijanie kompetencji w obszarach biznesowych, takich jak: sprzedaż, pozyskiwanie klientów, czy marketing. 

Wskazówka dla Trenerów: Poszerz swoją wiedzę o podstawy zarządzania firmą, sprzedaży i marketingu, aby zrozumieć, jak skuteczniej prowadzić swój trenerski biznes.

Zdobądź umiejętności z zakresu doskonałej obsługi klienta, aby budować trwałe i satysfakcjonujące relacje z klientami.

Naucz się, jak skutecznie komunikować swoje usługi i tworzyć silną markę osobistą, która będzie odróżniać Cię od konkurencji i przyciągać klientów.

Przestań Pracować w Firmie i Zacznij Pracować Nad Firmą

Prowadzenie biznesu trenera nie kończy się tylko i wyłącznie na sali oraz prowadzeniu tam treningów lub krzątaniu się po niej bez większego sensu…

Praca z podopiecznymi i zarabianie dzięki temu pieniędzy, to dopiero początek drogi do zbudowania silnej marki, która odnosi sukcesy poza nią.

Teraz kiedy znasz znaczenie zarządzania czasem, strategicznego planowania i poszerzania kompetencji poza wiedzę treningową, nadszedł czas, aby te wskazówki przełożyć na konkretne działania.

Zmiana perspektywy z trenera na przedsiębiorcę nie jest procesem, który odbywa się z dnia na dzień. 

To podróż, w trakcie której będziesz potrzebować wsparcia, narzędzi i sprawdzonych strategii, dzięki którym Twoje wysiłki przyniosą zamierzone efekty.

Nie pozwól, aby potencjał, który w sobie masz, został zmarnowany z powodu braku odpowiedniej ścieżki działania.

Czy jesteś gotów podjąć wyzwanie i wziąć los swojego biznesu trenera we własne ręce? Jeśli Twoja odpowiedź brzmi: TAK, to mam coś dla Ciebie.

Zapraszam Cię na indywidualną, bezpłatną konsultację, podczas której przyjrzymy się Twojemu biznesowi i opracujemy wstępny plan działania. Nie czekaj, aż zrobi to Twoja konkurencja i już teraz zajmij swoje miejsce.

Kliknij tutaj, aby umówić dogodny dla siebie termin i zacznij pracę nad swoim biznesem!

Is this it?

Below is one of my favourite podcasts with Stephen Jenkinson.

I'd love you to listen to the first few minutes. It says everything that I'd like to say; namely: where do we come from? where do we go? and is this merely a temporary waystation on the way to something else? or is it the whole deal?

Of course, for most of us, or so it seems, we never come close to inviting those questions into our life, lest still our hearts, and instead are driven by a morbid need to get on and become the best version of ourselves.

Is that conjecture?

No, not at all. Even now, if I was to surf the airwaves that underpin and underwrite the dominant narrative, I'd find that kernel of supposed truth, being the fact that we are the Crown of Creation and our journey on this land is to a destination called 'Be All You Can Be', i.e. don't squander your life and make something of yourself.

. . . how's that working out?

There again, it's writ large apropos of the Anthropocene. Not for all c.8 billion of us but enough to make a wrecking ball of misapprehension which at least partly explains our corpse of a culture that can't see the folly of its ways.

I know these words are harsh but, believe it or not, I feel it's my duty to wonder out loud about how it got like this and whether we'll ever be ancestors worth claiming.

If you want my honest view, I don't think we'll ever be worth claiming. Shunned with great gobs of opprobrium perhaps but what we've set in train seems so all-encompassing, and rock-solid as a narrative that I don't think it will matter how bad it gets, we'll never change our earth-devouring ways; and, as I read in one of Michael E. Gerber's books (I think it was the E-Myth Revisited), we'll be blown off the face of the earth, never to be heard from again -- or words to that effect.

Of course, this is a completely anthropocentric perspective and that leaves me feeling lost and grief-stricken when it comes to the magnitude of the suffering and annihilation of all other living and sentient beings. What must they think of us as we careen out of control? Perhaps I can revisit that question, remembering that whence we came from is evolutionary and not science fiction or religious in scope.

Have a good one.

Blessings.
