It’s because working with beginners (and more generally with people who have lots of problems) is very very hard. A beginner isn’t missing just one thing. He’s missing 100. His problem isn’t just the strategy. It’s the work ethic. And the mindset. And his family situation. And and and.
That makes a lot of sense and it matches my observations as well. I've received so many emails from such beginners (particularly from developing countries) that at this point my default response is no response because I'm just too bitter to try to help knowing it won't help at all.
In your case, I think you need to start moving in the coaching direction and deliver your knowledge to people who can take it and make a tremendous transformation with it. Maybe people who are already atheletes and are training to do super hard things. They can pay you, AND they already have a solid foundation upon which your knowledge and expertise can make a profound difference.
Because the stuff I cover in my newsletter is so reliant on my mental state, I'd make a terrible coach. I'd be a better swimming coach (stuff that doesn't require me to feel REALLY excited about life) than a personal development coach (sounds a bit like a joke considering this thread).
I have maximum respect for MJ sticking with it and doing all the work he’s doing here on the forum, we need people like that who are willing to sacrifice some returns on their end to make the world a better place.
Same.
