Sports And Business Coaching Is By And For . . . The Riff-Raff
As for all of my work,
This is only for the Serious man.
Solely for the man
Who longs for The Truth.
One must come to understand
That this entire world
Is a trash bin.
It is essentially
A flea-market
Selling worn shoes
And used toothbrushes.
The world consists
Of individuals who procure a degree
From an institution
That teaches the same regurgitated information
To all who sit in its plastic seats.
All having read
From the same regurgitated syllabus,
They hang a shingle
And begin their “coaching.”
They then glance at each other’s prices
And provide discounts
And package deals.
They then hire marketers
To advertise their packages
To the public.
All of their ideas
Are nepotistic
And regurgitated.
They have been taught
XYZ.
They then go out and teach
This XYZ.
Some coaches
Create institutions.
They license their coaching service
And create an army of “XYZ – Certified” coaches.
Understand this:
If a teaching is truly unique,
How can it be “certified” to another?
If a human’s discoveries are truly unique,
How can any human besides himself
Teach them?
Therefore,
What the world of coaching is,
Across the corporate and marketing and sports domains,
Is a group of heavily-regurgitated information
Offered at various discounts.
These are what you have
Available to you.
This is the only thing
You have ever had
Available to you.
This is
The riff-raff.
You might have been told,
“Find a coach.”
So you did.
And the coach you found
Was from the riff-raff.
Because the riff-raff
Is all that is available in the world.
There is no riff-raff-section,
And non-riff-raff-section.
It is all riff-raff.
Truth be told,
The masses
Are also riff-raff.
Therefore,
They, and likely you, included
Deserve the riff-raff.
The riff-raff coach
Has nothing unique or legendary
To offer.
The masses
Are not in search of anything
Unique or legendary.
Therefore,
It is perfectly reasonable for them,
And likely you,
To “go find one.”
The trouble arises
When a man is seeking something
That is genuinely Effective
And possibly Transformative.
The trouble arises
When a man is seeking
The Truth
About his particular domain.
The moment that a man
Begins to seek such things,
The world disappears.
The bevy of coaches,
And coaching institutions
Suddenly disappear
As a viable candidate for him.
But he does not realize this.
Because he has never been told,
Or come to his own Realization,
About the reality of things.
The moment he seeks Truth,
And genuine and lasting Efficiency,
The world’s coaches
Are of no use to him.
Because he has separated himself
From the riff-raff.
But all that is available to him . . .
All that the world has on offer . . .
Is the riff-raff.
It is for this reason
That across all domains,
Coaching seldom bears fruit.
It is for this reason
That across all domains,
Despite there being thousands of coaches
And coaching institutions,
Elite-ness occurs
Less than 0.01 percent of the time.
And frankly,
Even amongst those who are elite,
Legend-ness is effectively zero.
It is difficult, if not impossible,
For a man to come to the Understanding
That the thousands of coaches in the world
Can do little for him.
This lack of Understanding,
Costs him
A life of endless chases.
And a life
Of endless failures.
Namaste.
