A co-incidence??

Well, after my chance encounter with Sir Steve Redgrave last week, I was wandering round the local charity shops on Saturday when I found a copy of a book he has put his name to...'You can win at life, unlock your potential and go for gold'. A little corny I must admit but I had to buy it (an investment of £1.99). What a co-incidence, or is it? The book is full of useful advice on how to believe in your dreams and go for it which is basic coaching and exactly what I was teaching about at the school where I bumped into him!

I am off on holiday in a couple of weeks and will be taking the book with me. Some might suggest that reading it will be a bit like a bus man's holiday but I have to admit that I am developing a little bit of a crush on the man so it won't be all work...!

On the down side, I had a phone call of a potential client last week who has since been avoiding my calls (or am I just being paranoid?!) In my game it is very difficult to know how to judge the situation. Have they found someone else to coach them? Have they changed their mind? Or are they just too lacking in confidence to follow through with the commitment? Ironically, as a confident person myself, I just want to know so I can feel less like a stalker when I call for the 3rd time, no hard feelings at all. Fingers crossed she might get the confidence to tell me thanks but no thanks by the 4th time, before I get a knock on the door for harassment!
