Coaching philosophies to live by so that we can be trusted by our clients or people who seek our services. I live by John Wooden's Pyramid of Success
Coach John Wooden has had a profound impact on my life as a Coach. His “Pyramid of Success” has been widely used by many as a roadmap for individual and team excellence. The pyramid defines the characteristics and traits (25 behaviours), that help define a successful person. You may take a look at it here. These are life principles that we all should live by.
Coach Wooden has always said that the key to success is to coach others and being mentored by someone. That is, you teach and you also learn. When building a relationship the first thing that anybody wants to know about you is ‘Can I trust You?". And it deals with integrity. He calls it as the "Two set’s of three’s". The first set is; never lie, never cheat, and never steal. The second set is, Don’t whine, Don’t complain, and Don’t make excuses.
He also says, “Make each day your masterpiece”, by living by these principles of wisdom.
- Rethink the meaning of success and find a more simple approach to living a meaningful and fruitful life
- Gain firsthand insights into what it really takes to build a championship team by rediscovering the timeless principles of lasting achievement
- Walk through Coach Wooden’s tested Pyramid of Success framework that has been responsible for creating more champions, building more companies, and changing the lives of its followers than perhaps any other success plan ever
- Experience a philosophy for living that pushes against the “shiny object syndrome” of today’s success world and focuses instead on simply doing simple things
- Find out what made Coach John Wooden such a powerful influencer from the very people he mentored one-on-one in his now famous den
- Discover a new way of building self-control — that champion’s discipline — by following Coach Wooden’s humble teachings
- Unlock the ability to confidently walk through life and pursue your dreams and goals knowing your efforts are supported by a solid, proven framework for achievement
