My Personal Proclamation
I AM a Man that is, above all else, a Family Man. I prioritize my time accordingly. I act with Love and compassion when my family and friends need my time and attention. I provide a warm, safe and loving home. I offer advice and council from my heart and mind with Love and Integrity. It is an honor to have the Trust of my family and friends – and giving them my Trust is one way that I build self-esteem in others. My physical health and well-being is important to me because it will allow me to spend more time with my family and improve my quality of life.
I AM a successful and effective Business Coach.
I honor my clients by listening to their wishes, dreams goals and desires. I acknowledge that ALL growth comes from change and that most everyone experiences perturbation when confronted with change. My role as coach help my clients achieve their objectives by providing guidance, accountability, motivation and direction.
I AM in awe of the power of Communication:
Written or verbal, business or personal, the inability to communicate means to be ineffective and in constant chaos. I listen to what is said and watch how the words are being delivered. This awareness provides great insight into both the person attempting, and message being attempted, to communicate with me. Being able to accurately share thoughts, concepts and ideas with others will lead to success because so many people cannot. This, like Perfection, is a path, not a destination. There are always ways to improve.
I AM centered in the NOW:
My time and attention is delegated based on the Prioritized Order I give to people and tasks in my life. I am in Balance so as to not neglect things or people that are important to me. Focused mental energy is a powerful tool and is most effective when done in the moment. This does not mean I do not reflect on the past or look at options in the future, but see true Power in experiencing the moment.
I AM an Entrepreneur:
The challenges, frustrations, benefits and rewards of creating and building a new business bring happiness, learning, growth, freedom and rewards to my life. Business provides me the opportunities to expand my skills in Leadership, Vision and allows me to develop my Intuition and Imagination. The manifestation of a raw idea into a real entity is a truly magical experience in this life.
I AM a Spiritual Being having a Human Experience.
Spirit is all around and through us. My mind manifests and controls what my reality is. I have Faith that, if my thoughts are positive and my mind is pure, Spirit will provide what is best for me and my life – even if I don’t necessarily recognize what is best for me at that time. I believe that each lifetime provides the environment for at least one major lesson, and it is our eternal responsibility to learn that life-lesson and master it. I approach life as a Mystic by learning the laws of Nature and integrating them into my life.

Are you working longer hours than you want to or ever thought you would be?
Do you want to regain the vision and dream that led you to forming your own business in the first place?
What would you do to regain control of your life and spend more time with family and friends?
I am a certified Business Coach with
ActionCOACH, the World’s #1 Business Coaching Franchise (
Entrepreneur Magazine, Jan. 2004 & 2005).
As your coach, I will be working with you in five key areas. The emphasis on each area depends on your needs, the type of business you have, and your goals. The key areas are: Sales; Marketing and Advertising; Team Building and Recruitment; Systems and Business Development; and, Customer Service.
My goal is to help small business owners, such as yourself, spend less time working in your business and more time working on your business. In the end, you'll be spending less total time working and will be making more money. I’d also like to help you put the FUN back in your business and your life.
As a small business owner myself, I know what it is like to worry about the day-to-day survival of the business and making the amount of money needed to run my business and personal life. I understand what it’s like to put in long hours and wonder what happened to the dreams and vision I had for my life and future.
I am here to help you change all of that. We will work together to redefine your dreams and vision, and then we will put into place the necessary systems, strategies, and tactics that will allow you to turn your business venture into a thriving, successful one.
We define a successful business as: a commercial, profitable enterprise that works without you. As your Business Coach, I will function as an unreasonable friend who tells it like it is and keeps you working on the path toward your dreams.
There is no time like the present, right now, to get started on your dreams and goals. If you are ready to move your business to the next level, contact me today for a FREE, NO OBLIGATION consultation. Find out how you can change the way you do business to achieve the results you deserve!
