Get In Touch With Your Coach

We all have at least one.  Someone who saw us through a tough time.  Someone who picked us up when we fell down, and got us back on our feet.   Someone who believed in us when we didn't believe in ourselves.  Someone who reminded us why we matter.  Someone who reminded us what was important to us when we struggled to find it on our own.  Someone who taught us something special.  Someone who was there when we needed them the most.

I call them coaches.  Can you think of someone who has played one of the roles above for you sometime in your life?  Maybe it was a high school teacher.  Perhaps a college professor.  A friend at work.  A personal trainer.  The barista who sat and listened to you every day you came in for a cup of coffee.  Coaches.  They come in all forms and impacts.  Some are just there for a moment.  Others stay a while.  But they profoundly impact our lives in a moment we needed guidance, strength or direction.

Can you think of a coach in your life?  When was the last time you talked to them.  Can you get back in touch with them?  Through writing a letter... visiting them... making a phone call.  Can you tell them what they did for you?  Can you thank them for changing your life?


You never know what your small act of kindness and gratitude may do... and wouldn't it be fun to get back in touch with them?  Go on... thank your coach today.  Let them know what they did for you!
