Limit to Progress

There are definite limits to progress in growing as a coach. Yesterday I was reflecting on what I have done as a coach and what I have observed and I came to a less than obvious conclusion. The limit to progress is often not what you don’t know or the unknown, it is you do know or should I say what you think you know. It is so easy to be trapped into one way, the way you know based on what you know, especially if you have had success doing it that way. The lesson for me is to know what don’t know and reconcile what don’t know with what you do know. Make sure that what you do know is actually what is producing results for you. Above all keep learning and growing, everyday work to find a better way. Never be complacent in what you know.
