Coaches that show off their Lamborghinis and show off like their nice lifestyle, those are not the people that you wanna be working with. Because out the gate, when you're showing that stuff, there's a misalignment. Like it shows that you're not humble, that first and foremost. And it shows that you're also shallow for thinking that smart people are gonna fall for that stuff. You think they're gonna be impressed by your Lamborghini? No, like they wanna learn, right? A good coach, most of the time they're guiding you. They're not supposed to tell you what to do. A mentor or an advisor, they'll tell you what to do 'cause that's like advice. But to me, I've learned over the years, I used to think a coach is supposed to tell you what to do. But this type of coach, like a business coach, executive coach, I'm looking for someone that asked me the right questions to get me to think through things.
