"What is the number one result that you believe would bring you the biggest result in this year?"
This is the question that I have, since 3 January 2017, asked my clients, this year. Not once but 7 times.
People give me different answers, "I want to build my business to a new level this year", "I want to super-charge my career" and "I want to fire my boss" are the three most common answers so far.
As the responses emerge, they reveal something important. Your answer to this question shows what you currently believe would give you your biggest return on investment (ROI) for the time, energy and money that you put in.
I would next ask a powerful question, "Knowing what you know now, are you willing to break out of your comfort zone and do what is necessary to achieve the result you want this year?"
This is where they will give me silence.
Let's face it: most people are just living in dreams. They say they want something, but often it is not a want but just a wish, like new year wishes. A want is more than a wish: a want is your desire. Like now I want a new iPhone 7 this is not a wish.
Until you make your wish your want, you are just living 2017 the same as 2016; going nowhere. It's time to go somewhere, and to do that you need to get out of your comfort zone and do what is necessary.

I will next ask 4 questions:
- What are the key factors that influence your ability to create the results you desire, and how can you develop those factors?
- What are the obstacles that have been holding you from getting the results you want, and how can you eliminate those obstacles?
- How can you leverage on people, knowing that people are your greatest resource, to get what you want?
- Are you able to do this with your current personality? As a coach, I know of coachees that possess personality that will never get them ahead, like being soft and indecisive
If you can answer the above questions, you have it!
