Episode 243: Beyond the Hustle: Discovering the Power of Inspired Action
Episode Description
In this eye-opening episode, I dive into a game-changing concept that could revolutionize how you approach building your coaching business: the four types of action. While we've been conditioned to believe that more action equals better results, I reveal why the quality and type of action you take matters far more than the quantity. I break down passive action, inaction, forced action, and inspired action—showing you how to recognize where you spend most of your time and offering practical ways to shift toward the most powerful type: inspired action. Learn how to kindle the flame of inspiration on purpose rather than waiting for motivation to strike!
