Usain Bolt had a coach, do you


Usain Bolt had Coaching ... Do You?
Coaching isn't just for athletes any more, it's for dating!!


The Olympics news tell us that Usain Bolt has broken a world record, something no one has done before.


The Yahoo teaser continues that Bolt is the first man to break the world marks in both sprints at an olympics. Not even Jesse Owens did this ... we would have thought it impossible.


This reminds me of a woman who called me for Dating Coach several months ago, told me a little about herself, and then added, "I bet you've never had such a hard sell before."


Fast forward - This woman is now dating a wonderful man, after 3 months of coaching with me.


ABOUT COACHING


Since I'm a coach, I went to wikipedia and tried to find out about Usain Bolt's coaches. Wikipedia says,



"Under the guidance of new coach Fitz Coleman, Bolt turned professional in 2004,beginning with the CARIFTA games in Bermuda....He became the first junior
sprinter to run the 200 metres in under 20 seconds, breaking Roy Martin' world
junior record by two tenths of a second with 19.93 seconds.

The following year, 2005, signalled a fresh start for Bolt in the form of a new coach, Glen Mills and a new attitude to athletics. Mills recognised Bolt's potential andaimed to cease the sprinter's unprofessional approach to the sport. TheJamaican surprised even himself with the time but coach Glen Mills remained confident there was more to come. Mills' prediction came true before the end ofthe month when Bolt established a new 100 metres world record in May. He then encouraged Bolt to try the 100.


This is what coaches do! One thing I did for sure with the female client mentioned above is give her a total new ATTITUDE toward dating. That's because I've done a lot of dating coaching, and seen the successes. I KNEW there was a man out there looking for this woman, and that a change of attitude was in order.


One thing is that she tried once or twice and then gave up. What would've happened if Bolt had done that? If his coach had let him do that?


Dating coaching is all about attitude, strategy, and what works and what doesn't, from years of experience.


Let me help you find the mate of your dreams.
