Do You See Your Clients…Do They See You?

Do you see your clients?

Do they see you?

Those may seem like strange questions, but when you really think about it, they really aren’t.

Do you see your clients where they are or do you see them where they could be?

Do you see your clients beyond the here and now and in a place of massive success, which they are striving toward?

One of the greatest gifts you have as a business owner, coach or mentor, is the ability to see your clients beyond where they see themselves. When you see your clients where they are and you use your gifts to help them stretch beyond where they are now, amazing things will begin to happen – for them and for you.

A lot of business owners and entrepreneurs who are moving forward and progressing in their lives and businesses spend a lot of time chasing the dangling carrot. There’s a goal you want to accomplish and it’s hanging out there in front of you – dangling, like a carrot, just out of reach. Each step you take towards that goal is another step forward, but the carrot doesn’t get any closer. It just keeps hanging there, dangling just beyond your finger tips and out of reach.

When this happens, you tend to forget how much you have accomplished and the hurdles you’ve overcome to get to the place in your life and your business that you’re at now.

Your clients are no different. You both see yourself in a particular place, at a particular time, and you don’t look at everything you’ve done to get to that place because you’re too focused on getting to that carrot, or the next goal. You don’t give yourself credit for how far you’ve come and neither do your clients.

When you see all that you’ve accomplished and you begin to give yourself credit, you build those gifts even more and you can use that to help others see these things in themselves as well. When you have that gift you have to share it, you should help your clients feel those same things. You have to help them take credit for their accomplishments.

As a business owner, a coach or a healer, you’re the person your clients are looking to as a leader in what you do. You can help them see things in a more positive light so they can accomplish more of what they want in their lives and businesses.

This can be life changing. It can be business changing. Your clients will now see you and your accomplishments, and you will help them see their accomplishments. You’ll find that more people connect with you when you do this.

So, meet your clients where they are, where ever that is, and take their hand and show them where they can be, where you see them going. Help them take credit for their accomplishments and help stretch them to reach that carrot, that goal, that place where they want to be…and beyond.
