Imagine if someone asked you to write with your non-dominant hand.

It'd feel awkward, right?  Difficult, uncomfortable and the results wouldn't be great.

As I heard from 'the boy with the broken brain' (link to the podcast episode is below), this is just the feeling when we choose the wrong kind of learning or coach for us.

You know what it's like.  Two people can say the same thing.  You ignore the first person, but the second person has impact.

And I map this to other areas of our business, namely, how we shouldn't succumb to the pressure of shoulds.

I felt it important to talk about since there is SO much in the tutoring world about how group classes are the only way to scale.

I love my group classes, but I don't believe there's one way to do anything.

Anyway, have a listen to this 2-minute soundbite, and let me know what you think!

Soundbites

" The only thing that is right, in my opinion, is that it has to feel right for you. Otherwise, it'll always feel difficult, like you're writing with the wrong hand."

" There's a lot out there right now telling you that you're running an inefficient business if you aren't teaching groups or if you haven't got passive income streams"

" I have clients who run agencies and love it, I have clients who only teach groups and love it. There really is no right and wrong. "

This inspiration was taken from The Diary Of A CEO podcast, episode 259.

Enjoy :-)
