			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>I LOVE TO LEARN.  DO YOU?<br />
</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">You will find my Most RESPECTED  Business Mystics and Wise Leader BOOKS  being blogged about here.  My interest in spiritual things, human behavior and relationships without conflict  will be featured here too.  I offer up my love of vital HEALTH and real FOOD books (I have eaten organic and chemical free for 37 years).   In 1989 I had to take a year off to recover my health from the &#8220;All American Way of Life&#8221;.  I learned a lot and will share it all with you.  I have many parenting books that I will recommend because most of my clients are parents and need LOTS of help.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Because I love financial planning and am a sagacious pragmatist with money, you will find MONEY books that really work in transforming your management of resources.  Coaching clients on money is a big part of any coaching partnership whether you have a budget to manage at work or you are managing the money you have in your life.</p>
<p>I believe reaching your potential requires old think + new think + your think = live your full potential now.  If you can read, if you are &#8220;willing&#8221; to re-frame your conditioning, you can transform and achieve in the world much faster than someone who does not.  Read traditional books, Amazon Kindle books, or read on line.  Whatever you do, I will need you to read!<strong><br />

<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Whether big or small, business owners get tunnel vision and cannot see the strategic steps that would help turn them around, build bigger gross receipts and profits, or simply get them out of the chute and into the right lane for success.  Olympic level business results happen when you have a business coach to bench mark your plans, your decisions, your results.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>AVOID THE PITFALLS OF MODERN LIVING.</strong></p>
<p>Busy <strong>professionals need</strong> vitality, stamina, and longevity.  <em>Do you have it</em>?  It is <strong>100% possible</strong> for you to live feeling fully supported by your body everyday IF you are willing to give it what it needs.  Clients I coach are high performance people.  However many are suffering needlessly physically.  Our coaching includes <strong>EXTREME SELF CARE</strong> and helps you <strong>take back your health if you have lost it</strong>.</p>
<p>In <strong>1989</strong> my <strong>type A, all American performance </strong>style of working ran amuck with my body&#8217;s needs.  Doctor&#8217;s wanted to drug me, cut me or side line me with new-fangled diagnosis.  Instead, I outsmarted them and went the route of, &#8220;<strong>I WILL HEAL MYSELF</strong>&#8221; with a lifestyle 360 degree turn around.  I took a year off and <strong>reclaimed my health</strong> with Naturopathy, Homopathy, Chiropractic, Massage Therapy, Acupuncture AND a &#8220;<strong>JUICING FOR LIFE&#8221; program ala Jack Lalaine</strong>.</p>
<p>I came back into the <strong>business success </strong>shoot smarter about my health, more vital and strong, and became even more successful in my business than I was as a Type A &#8220;All American who was sick and tired&#8221; almost every day.</p>
<p>So now, as a coach, I have <strong>experience and resources</strong> that will <strong>help you</strong> pull yourself up and back into <strong>High and Healthy performance</strong> so you can actually enjoy the ride and the results of success.</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong><br />
TAKE THE WELLNESS PRACTICES ASSESSMENT YOURSELF!<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong></strong></span>First, print out the survey, we are not yet         &#8220;live&#8221;, you will need a pencil.  Put a check mark by each item you do 99%         of the time, every day of your life. The purpose of NOT checking unless you are at 99% is         to trigger your awareness for complete honesty with YOURSELF about what you truly practice in life!</p>
<p>Being honest with yourself and making         changes could save your life, improve the quality of your life, impact your         children or spouses health enormously and be a guiding light for others. Once you         get the hang of wellness, you can maintain it because you have seen the results WITHIN,         the most important place in the world.</p>
<p>Making powerful life changes requires actual transformation of habits.  It is wise to find support in your life to help you stay on track;         to take consistent action until you have developed new, empowering habits.  Of         course, we are biased, but we believe in the power of coaching and the support structure         it provides for making difficult life changes.  You can follow up with one-to-one         support <strong>coaching</strong> via <strong>telephone</strong> and         <strong>email. </strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Wellness Practices Assessment</strong></span></p>
<p>1. I eat at least 2 cups of raw vegetables (or slightly         cooked) daily. ____</p>
<p><strong>Tip: </strong>The American Cancer Society recommends 4 servings of fruits and vegetables a day to         prevent all cancer.</p>
<p>2. I have eliminated all white, processed sugar from my         diet, except for once-in-a-while occasions (if then).______</p>
<p><strong>Tip:</strong> White sugar has all of the nutrients milled out of it. If you are going to eat         sugar/fructose, make it as &#8220;close to the earth&#8221; as possible. For example: Honey,         molasses, raw sugar, crushed up cane, or Agave.</p>
<p>3. I read labels and eat only ingredients that I         understand, recognize or can pronounce. _____</p>
<p><strong>Tip: </strong>Cockineal is a coloring agent used in foods and beverages such as pink grapefruit         juice.  It is made from crushed cockroaches!  Know what you&#8217;re consuming!</p>
<p>4. I limit alcohol to social occasions and celebrations.         ______</p>
<p><strong>Tip:</strong> It is medically proven women do not have as MUCH of the enzyme in their stomach to         digest alcohol. Alcohol in excess is detrimental to everyone and a sure         &#8220;nummer&#8221;. However, women will suffer faster and have more health repercussions         from alcohol than men. This information is based on a 15 year study.</p>
<p>5. I eat at least one piece of fruit a day ____</p>
<p><strong>Tip: </strong>Fruit is like a broom because it is made of high fiber. If you put it into the body         on an empty stomach, it will &#8220;sweep&#8221; right through and clean out debris.  Eat it at the beginning of the day or in between meals when your stomach is empty.</p>
<p>6. My commitment to wellness includes sitting down,         taking time to eat three times a day. ____</p>
<p><strong>Tip: </strong>Remember to relax while you eat.  Chewing each bite slowly (at least 20 chews)         will begin your digestion and help you get the most nutrition for the bite!!! Plus, it is         very peaceful to actually &#8220;sit&#8221; and eat.  Grazing is not a healthy wellness habit.</p>
<p>7. I eat three meals a day. ____</p>
<p><strong>Tip:</strong> Break the fast! This is what breakfast is. You have been fasting for possibly 10         hours. You have not had any food. To start your engine, your body needs some fruit first, grains and         protein second and at least 30 minutes later. It is like gasoline in a car. A cup of coffee is not &#8220;breaking the         fast&#8221;. A coke, a candy bar or white bagel is like eating 6 teaspoons of sugar for         breakfast. Would you actually eat 6 tablespoons of sugar when you arise?</p>
<p>8. I eat two small snacks a day to keep blood sugar steady._____</p>
<p><strong>Tip: </strong>A great snack between meals is fruit or unsalted, raw almonds or seeds of some kind.         They are easy to carry and full of &#8220;balanced and close to the earth&#8221; nutrients.         Fat you say?  New studies show overeating of carbohydrates to be a bigger concern for health watchers than good natural fat intake.  Eliminate fake food for         these &#8220;real&#8221; food goodies.</p>
<p>9. I believe food supports the bodies vitality and immune         system. _____</p>
<p><strong>Tip:</strong> Extreme-Self-Care for YOURSELF will support you to be &#8220;powered-up&#8221; to fully         interact with others, love others, have joy, vitality and happiness in your life. You can         create what you desire. Do you desire to be healthy?</p>
<p>10. I have identified and eliminated all headaches,         stomach aches, and other physical conditions related to life style and food choices.         ________</p>
<p><strong>Tip: </strong>For ten-days, &#8220;notice&#8221; anything about your body that does not feel good         each day. Then see if you can trace it to food, sleep, lifestyle, and environment. Watch,         notice, identify, eliminate.  A high percentage of the population suffers from food         allergies to embedded chemicals and industrialized food.  Simple, plain, close to the earth food will cure most every allergy or at least minimize  it greatly.</p>
<p>11. I eat only whole grain rice, whole pasta, whole breads, and whole cereals. ____</p>
<p><strong>Tip: </strong>The closer to nature a food is, the more likely it is healthy for you.           Processed foods are often so stripped of nutrients, the manufacturer has to add them back         in artificially and the body cannot recognize or process these foreign substances.</p>
<p>12. I do not eat food from a tin can 95% of the time.         ____</p>
<p><strong>Tip: </strong>Our bodies love live enzymes as they stimulate our immune system and create strong         healthy bodies. Anything in a can is &#8220;dead&#8221; and has been &#8220;in tin&#8221;         maybe for months. Be sparing in using canned food. Try frozen first.</p>
<p>13. I am aware and completely committed to the truth that         packaged food is often full of chemicals and chemicals are not food sources._____</p>
<p><strong>Tip: </strong>In 1972 I discovered chemicals in food. I also discovered I was very allergic to         them. They make me very ill. Many people are ill today because of chemicals in growing         food and in packages, however they do not know that is the cause. For one week try eating         nothing out of a can or box. Did you notice any difference?    Did you know the US has         about 122 chemicals they put in food and Europe only allows 8.  Would you like some         chemicals for breakfast?  Check and see if that is what you are eating.</p>
<p>14. Do you walk briskly at least 1 mile, three days a week,         or do some other form of exercise three days a week, consistently. ____</p>
<p><strong>Tip: </strong>Make exercise something you use to be in relationship with yourself.  Walking is great exercise  and much more natural than a machine in a gym.  Smell the fresh air and make yourself hardier!!!  Connect to the &#8220;feeling&#8221;         of exercise.  How do you &#8220;feel&#8221; when         you move (walk), make that &#8220;feeling&#8221; your focus.</p>
<p>15. I sleep at least eight hours a night. ______</p>
<p><strong>Tip: The New England Journal of Medicine recently had an         article titled: &#8220;Lack of Sleep Will Make You Stupid&#8221;! Have you noticed how you         feel dull, lethargic and even stupid when you don’t sleep. For every 15 minutes less         than 7 hours of sleep each night,  you function at one IQ point lower for that day.<br />
</strong></p>
<p>16. I feel alive and vital 6 out of 7 days in a week.         ____</p>
<p><strong>Tip:</strong> Rate on a scale of 1 – 10, 10 being the best, how vital you felt all day.   The aforementioned 15 steps will lead you to your vitality.  Interested?</p>
<p>17. My skin, bones, teeth and hair are in optimum health.         ____</p>
<p><strong>Tip: </strong>It is a truism that bones, teeth, hair and skin represent your wellness. They can         even be tested to see how well you are. Check yourself out. On a scale of 1 – 10, ten         being the best, how healthy are you in those areas?</p>
<p>18. I do not use street drugs at anytime, including         marijuana. _____ I do not use prescription drugs. ______</p>
<p><strong>Tip: </strong>In my life, it is amazing to me the people who stand for great lives and then abuse         their bodies with drugs on the side.   Marijuana is also a nummer….what is its place in         the world of wellness and vitality? Pain killer? Prescription drugs are probably more of         an offender than street drugs of any kind. If you use anything regularly, notice how it         really makes you feel and be aware. Anti depressants and anti anxiety drugs are being used         for a quick solution to broken hearts, confusion, disappointment and lack of connection to         self and love from others.</p>
<p>19. I ask questions directly and confidently to a Dr. if         he wants to prescribe drugs for me, operate on me or otherwise do something to my body.         ____</p>
<p><strong>Tip: </strong>Your body belongs to you. You know it better than anyone, even the Doctor.  The         Dr. has knowledge, however, he/she is just human. Where did he get his education, does he         teach as well as practice medicine (teaching doctors  make better practicing doctors  most of the time), does he         believe in wellness or just fixing disease and broken things? If you asked him/her to         explain how the drug might interact with the rest of your life, what might he/she reply.         You have every right to ask your Doctor questions.  If they won’t answer you,         fire them and go to a better communicator.  Or better yet, create your own health from scratch!! Your         body is a magnificent creation and it can heal itself in so many cases. Save the Dr. for         broken bones, emergencies, disease (and I believe you will never get one!!!!) Always think         in the affirmative. You can create what you believe!!!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>KATHLEEN&#8217;S VISION AND PURPOSE FOR YOUR COACHING<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you know what derails you at work?   Do you focus on your strengths and simply surround your weaknesses with support and help so they don&#8217;t derail you?  Are you a boss, a mediator, a helper, an individualist or a performer?  Find out what you Enneagram Type is.  It will be one of nine numbers found on the circle of life in the Enneagram.  Take your test and figure it out at www.enneagraminstitute.com.  Take the full RHETI ($10) and see what number it says you default into, what your stress number is and what your security number is.  If you need help figuring it out, call for a coaching session, we can probably do it in two to three meetings.  Then, use it to figure out how you can bring more of your strengths into the work place, be happier, be more compassionate to others you work with.  Learn to start responding vs reacting into the lower behaviors of your number.  &#8220;How to Use the Enneagram System for Success&#8221; by Giner Lapid-Bogda, PH.D. is a fantastic book to help you help yourself out of work related boon dongles.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3><strong>In fact, there are some people I hope never find out about it. This approach to success is not for amateurs &#8211; It&#8217;s custom-designed especially for people dedicated to taking charge and achieving success in business and life. </strong></h3>
<p><strong>So I&#8217;m telling you now &#8211; do not even think about hiring me as your coach unless:</strong><br />
1. You are serious about producing <strong>BIG</strong> results as quickly as possible . . .</p>
<p>2. <strong>You are willing to throw yourself into a smart plan of attack</strong> to aggressively increase profits and squeeze all the juice out of life that&#8217;s possible . . .</p>
<p>3. <strong>You are super results oriented</strong> and want to experience the fastest gains possible for a human being, while still enjoying a healthy, well-balanced, FUN life . . .</p>
<p>Are you still with me? Good. I am extremely proud of what my clients have accomplished. During my ten-years of coaching It&#8217;s always been my bottom line to deliver <strong>integrity and honest value</strong> to my clients &#8211; more than any other coach, consultant, product or seminar available.</p>
<p><strong>Best of all, the results you can see are truly fast. </strong></p>
<p>And hey, remember John Barker, that client who had enough <strong>drive and commitment</strong> to succeeding that he insisted on spending one-sixth of his income to hire me as his coach?<br />
Here&#8217;s what happened to him . . .</p>
<p>&#8220;As you know, I was really terrified to follow my dream and take off on my adventure trip to Mexico. <strong>Thanks for helping me get past my fears</strong> &#8211; it&#8217;s still one my favorite memories.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I was even more terrified to quit my job and start building my own business. Now I work part-time, at home with my daughters and <strong>my income should top six-figures</strong> this year. And the best part is <strong>I have the exact business I wanted</strong> even though nobody believed (except you and me) it was actually possible to make that kind of money with no clients, no inventory, and no orders or returns to process &#8211; ever!&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And, oh yeah! Meeting my wife, moving to &#8220;The Most Beautiful Place in America&#8221; and having two beautiful daughters has been pretty cool too!&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Thanks for your support, advice, direction and &#8216;can-do anything&#8217; attitude Kathleen! I&#8217;m very happy with my results.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Pretty impressive for a guy who literally <strong>started with nothing</strong>. It gets better &#8211; listen to what these other clients have to say about coaching:</p>
<p>- &#8220;When I came to you I was very unhappy with my job and wanted to make a change. I am no longer looking for a different job. My contentment, confidence, &#8220;posture&#8221; and new communication skills in approaching my work duties have produced benefits both in working relationships and in pay. At my first performance review <strong>after our coaching (began), I received a 26% increase in pay!</strong> I have had this job for 5 years and my previous raises were around 5% each. &#8221;</p>
<p>- &#8220;Thank You. I appreciate all you do. For helping me in so many meaningful ways&#8211;for sharing with me the gift of your wisdom and guidance, for encouraging me to grow, and for <strong>making a real difference in my life!</strong>&#8221;</p>
<p>- &#8220;Thanks so much for being such an incredible coach. Every so often I have been feeling frozen in fright as I get intuitive hits as to how big a thing I am creating. I then take a deep breath and tell myself all will be revealed to me as I need it and I have you as my coach! Thank you.&#8221;</p>
<p>- &#8220;Just wanted you to know what a wonderful presentation you made on Wed. You are <strong>a shining star in our world of coaching</strong>. You represent the field with such professionalism, warmth and grace! I especially liked your, &#8220;create it, evaluate it, and expand it&#8221;. Powerful words leading to action.&#8221;</p>
<p>Are these people any different than you? I don&#8217;t think so. They&#8217;re just hard-working professionals who are so ecstatic by the results they&#8217;ve experienced that they&#8217;ve stayed with me for years.</p>
<h3><strong>It&#8217;s Perfectly Understandable That You&#8217;re a Little Skeptical</strong></h3>
<p>But let me tell you a little more about coaching. If you haven&#8217;t already spent thousands of dollars on audio programs, higher education, consultants, weekend seminars or weeklong retreats then you probably should so you will know why they fail most people.</p>
<p>Go ahead and use them and see the actual results they produce. You shouldn&#8217;t take my word for it, but instead know that most of them do little more than produce a temporary sense of hope.</p>
<p>Many of these programs and approaches don&#8217;t work and that&#8217;s why a week after you buy the program that was supposed to be the answer to all your problems, then they start trying to sell you the next program that will solve the problems the first program didn&#8217;t.</p>
<p>It isn&#8217;t that the programs don&#8217;t have value. They do. There&#8217;s a missing element in them, however. <strong>Support.</strong> Staying on track and moving forward when you feel stuck, lost, frustrated or overwhelmed requires the objective support of someone dedicated to seeing you win.</p>
<h3><strong>How Much Does Coaching Cost?</strong></h3>
<p>Well, I&#8217;ll tell you it doesn&#8217;t cost anywhere near what as much as it should, considering the immense amount of time, energy and extreme attention I give my clients. If I kept my services only available to the richest professionals (which I&#8217;ve considered), I could charge most anything I wanted. <strong>My clients get results</strong>, and the rich and successful will pay anything for results.</p>
<p>You can&#8217;t find this kind of experience and support in any product or workshop. Nor can you find anything even remotely similar, anywhere. This is a one-of-a-kind opportunity customized to you.</p>
<p>But one thing I am not, is greedy. This is not a mega-big operation I&#8217;m running. My office is in my home &#8211; there&#8217;s no waste, fluff, or unnecessary overhead to run up costs on you.</p>
<p><strong>I didn&#8217;t become a coach just to take your money!</strong> I became a coach because . . .</p>
<h3><strong>People Needed Coaching!</strong></h3>
<p>And they need it <strong>now</strong> more than ever. Success-oriented people are busy and they need big support more than any other group of people on the planet.</p>
<p>It just happens that the most successful people need the support of other successful people to continue growing and achieving bigger results.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m telling you this because, even though this is without question <strong>the most important investment many people will ever commit to making in them self</strong>, my profit is nevertheless very small. I don&#8217;t need a lot, because I&#8217;ve already taken care of my financial demands. Other coaches do charge outrageous figures for their services and I&#8217;m not here to judge them &#8211; I&#8217;m here to deliver to you the best value available at any price. I don&#8217;t care that<strong> I <em>could</em> charge more</strong>.</p>
<p>So, do you want results? Good. If I didn&#8217;t believe deep down in my heart that you would want to achieve maximum results, I wouldn&#8217;t<br />
have bothered writing to you.</p>
<h3><strong>One More Thing &#8211; It&#8217;s Important!</strong></h3>
<p>I&#8217;m just one person and I&#8217;m going to retire one day! Because <strong>I put so much time, energy and personal attention into each one of my clients I can only help a limited number of people at a time.</strong> And because almost all of my clients stay with me for years, <strong>it&#8217;s rare that I have openings for new clients</strong>. Right now, I have a limited number of openings available to be filled on a first-come, first-served basis <strong>to only the most results-oriented professionals</strong>.</p>
<p>The cost per month is $400 (after initial start-up power meeting) with a minimum three-month commitment. You can <strong>email me directly, anytime, at spike@coachingworksinc.com</strong>. You can <strong>email me today</strong> &#8211; and I will answer if I&#8217;m not with a client. Or, if you prefer you can simply fill in your name and email address and I will send you my workbook titled &#8220;True North: Living Life by Your Values&#8221; I will give that to you at no charge, even though I sell it elsewhere for $37.</p>

<p>PS &#8211; One more thing &#8211; it&#8217;s important. Because my time is limited <strong>I will only accept 3 new clients this month</strong>. Even though I limit the number of clients I work with sometimes I can get swamped with new client inquiries &#8211; so I urge you to contact me NOW and avoid any delay in getting started.</p>
<p><strong>Email: spike@coachingworksinc.com</strong></p>
<p><strong>NOT SURE?</strong></p>
<p>Stay in touch with me. Leave your name and email address and I will have my assistant send you a copy of &#8220;True North: Living Life by Your Values&#8221; I will give that to you at no charge. It sells elsewhere for $37.</p>
