1. Engaged in Your Success
A good coach will take a sincere personal interest in your goals and success. Their true desire will not be to put you through some type of "one size fits all" standardized program. Their aim will be to offer specific, personalized coaching based on your unique set of needs and circumstances.
They will go into a deep dive on the reasons why you want to
improve your life and help you analyze all of the obstacles that may have held you back and what you can do to clear them away and move forward.
It's important that you be brutally honest with your coach and open up as much as possible. This type of vulnerability is part of the process and will help your coach be fully engaged in your success.

2. Quick and Regular Wins
Some goals and achievements take longer than others. It's important for your coach to assist you with Quick and Regular wins. Seeing and experiencing success right from the start will build confidence and help create momentum to push through the nature cycle of ups and downs to follow. A good coach will build into your personalized program a system
where success can be measured at least weekly if not daily. Real and measurable results are the key.
They affect your physical, emotional and mental engagement and generate a feeling of "I can do this!" right from the start.

3. Long Term Planning
and Moving Targets
Why do most New Year’s Resolutions fail by the end of January?
Most of the time it's because the main goal was set too far in the future and a system for total success was never really thought through. While focusing on Quick and Regular wins is important, it's equally vital to set long-term plans and targets to pull you forward.
Long term planning takes skill and creativity. The ability to see
the challenges and obstacles ahead and create a system of how to overcome or minimize them when they show up.
Equally important is what to do after you've achieved your initial goal. Is it then time to set a new challenge? Go into maintenance mode? Or work on another area of your life? A good coach is concerned not with your short-term success but helping you create your best life now and for years to come.

4. Broadened Perspective
Our point of view drives how we live. From how we raise our children to the food we eat. Our perspective is based on our own life experiences and what we've been told. By its very nature our perspective is narrow and limited.
A good coach will offer a broadened perspective.
There are other ways of thinking/ being/doing and this is required to change your actions. If you do not shift your perspective, you will not shift your actions and behavior. And nothing will change.
Your coach should open up your mind to new possibilities, new ideas and new ways of taking action in order to get the results you’re looking for.

5. Expedited Timing
One of the biggest reasons people don't hire a coach is the belief they can do it on their own.
They think they will read the books, listen to the podcasts, create the plans, do the meditating, etc.
But all this has been done before. Will little to no results. Let’s be honest.
As Derek Sivers so accurately pointed out “If more information
was the answer, we’d all be billionaires with six-pack abs”.
The truth is, coaching not only gets you results but saves you time.
Working with a coach expedites growth. They help you get where you want to go faster with without the struggle. This allows you to take advantage of compounding your results which can have a significant impact on your life and happiness.

6. Live Access
An effective coach is a real person, a live human being.
They should be someone who works with you in real time. They should be available for you when you need help, have questions or require some extra motivation.
One of the main complaints we see in people who hire a generic coach is that they don't feel the coach is available for them and they don't feel the coaching is personal.
Coaching with Dennis Kay gets you personalized coaching in real time.

7. Accountability and
Continuous Feedback
An effective coach will create incentives and implement a system to keep you accountable and give you meaningful and continuous feedback.
Don't make this mistake: Friends, family members and co-workers do not make for good accountability partners.
The truth is, many will not understand why you want to set and achieve certain goals. They may judge you. Or they might be secretly jealous of your potential success.
Your coach will be different. They will help you succeed as you do the work together.

(2) Bonus Features
1. A Personal Connection
It goes without saying, but your coach should be someone you can respect and resonate.
They should be someone that you feel comfortable with and someone that you feel really cares about helping you reach your optimal life.
You should sense in your coach that they really care. You matter
to them. But they are not your friend. And this is also important. A friend often will hold back telling you what you need to hear.
Your coach should be firm and structured (to get you results) but also likable and fun to work with.

2. Network and Visibility
Working with a Peak Performance and Accountability Coach puts you in a rare group of individuals. A group that is determined to work on their success and push past their current limits.
A good coach will open up their network to you and give you maximum exposure to other
organizations, people and processes that you can use in your own life.
These include introducing you to other professionals in areas such as health and fitness, career and finances, business and relationship growth and more.

Finally, a good coach will always offer you a free initial consultation to see if you both are a good fit for each other.
This initial consultation is NOT a sales call.
Remember, a good coach is highly interested in the short and long-term success of their clients.
If they feel you are not a good match or that they will only be able to achieve limited results from working with you, they will humbly suggest other avenues you might pursue with better results.
You’ve tried it on your own. Now let’s do it together.
Achieve Peak Performance. Exceed Your Goals. Live Your Best Life.
