Last night I watched the Golden Globes, and I too was awestruck by Oprah's speech. Inspiring, to say the least. What the world needs most is inspiration.

I have always said this about good coaching...it is less about motivation and more about inspiration.

To me, I want to be inspired to train, eat well, learn, grow...

Motivation is often 'given' from another person to you, and when that person isn't around, where is the motivational force?

I believe as a coach that our best job is to create a fire of inspiration inside each and every client, one that can grow and build within itself, and that spark of inspiration continues to fuel itself.

Here's a short video I did on the subject (this was before Oprah's speech...maybe we were on the same wavelength! LOL!) I could only wish..
