Do daily distractions keep you from seeing the obvious? Personal Coach

DEFINITION: Giggers – those who have started their own Gig to live the New Gig Economy Lifestyle.

With my personal coach and mentor clients, and in classes where I teach a How to Become a Life Coach Certification course, we learn how to contain daily distractions.

As Zig Ziglar has a good point, we will see how it relates later.

How do you rate? What do you do to build up your clan?

Giggers, daily distractions keep us from seeing the obvious. As The New Rich are effective Entrepreneurs, they have learned to control daily distractions to see the obvious for experiencing optimal lifestyles.  

Today we are aligning our Skill #7: Seeing Your Blind Spots with Gig Business Success Step-3: Automate and outsource.

The 5 Steps so you can build your Gig business to the next level and experience your optimal income.

Step-1: Use inexpensive digital marketing.	(Yes, for local small businesses, you can “set it and forget it” to get your BIG DATA too.)
Step-2: Know your CLAN and build them up.	(Get to KNOW THEM WELL.)
Step-3: Automate and outsource to streamline processes to reduce wasted activity and space.	(Think Disney or McDonald’s.)
Step-4: Scale your business globally.	(E.g. A local bakery can sell an online eBook with recipes and Ideas for Entertaining.)
Step-5: Enjoy your Gig business optimal freedom lifestyle.	(Your goal is a 4-Hour Work Week.)

When I first started my own Gig in the New Gig Economy, I struggled – to the breaking point – with distractions. Remember, my ADD tendencies and so many distractions almost stopped my Gig lifestyle before it started.

Then I found ways to automate and outsource and once I learned to use the tools and success started coming. Now I work with my personal coach and mentoring clients to support them to embrace automating and outsourcing.

You’ll know what you need to do, you will know how to do it, and you will know that it works! That’ll give you confidence, and as they say, confidence breeds success.

And what’s nice, is you get to leverage automation, and the dependable sales can come in easier and easier, while you’re working less and less. That’s the side-effect of a good system.

So, a good rule of thumb before you head out to start generating sales for the day? Ensure you’re doing it all with purpose, where you KNOW sales will be a result.

As my mentor client told me, “Warren, as a solo Gigger, several times I felt overwhelmed. I could see of all of the distractions and told myself there was no way I could get it all done. But when you showed me how to use these tools to automate and outsource, I suddenly felt free.”

The ultimate (your Autopilot Eagle Scout badge) is to automate your new client/customer acquisition systems. Then the new customers just keep coming.

Say you download my free eBook and subscribe to get your free consultation with me. You will see a flood or information on setting your autopilot systems to help you feel in control over distractions.

Automating and outsourcing allows you to focus on more valuable tasks to get more done.

Seeing Your Blind Spots. Exercise #9:

As a Gigger in the global Gig economy, what task could you automate or outsource to add value to your customer clan to take your next step for your new Gig, or to raise your Gig to the next level?

Look at these examples where Giggers say they automated or outsourced to add value to their clan to feel confidentand build their Gig business and support their customer clans.

• I’ve started using automated chatbots see my clans’ needs
• My automated webinar accepts questions to help me hear my clan’s needs
• I started using an email autoresponder to help feel closer to my clan and give more value

Write 3 Gigger areas where you can see you could automate or outsource to add value to your clan and tell yourselfhow you improved to feel stronger to develop your Gig and your optimal lifestyle.

1. –
2. –
3. –

Look at your list and attack 1 (only one at a time but do try a new one every month) idea to apply this week:

1. Write the area where you could automate or outsource.
2. List steps you see automate or outsource to add value to your clan..
3. Give yourself a metric to measure progress. (e.g. I will get an autoresponder.)
4. Reward yourself after you have completed your step to build relationships.

Debrief: The point here is to get over your own “NO, I can’t,” response and develop yourself so you can have your business success and your optimal lifestyle.

If you are looking at this exercise and saying, “this feels awkward,” that is good. The important part is you will get used to it, as your life, family, and business depend on it.

Engagement background of Optimal Engagement Lifestyle

As a trainer and university lecturer in the USA, I had great success in my coaching, training, and classrooms by engaging my learners in ways I had learned from my Dale Carnegie Instructor Training. (optimal engagement)

After earning my Doctoral Degree researching engaging instruction in adult education and training and development, I started a training business in Hong Kong.

But something was wrong, I was struggling in this new culture (I’m a cattle rancher’s son from Colorado, USA) to find ways to inspire and motivate my coachees and students in Hong Kong.

With my coachees and in the classroom, I preferred having clients engage in learning activities instead of just talking. This is especially effective to keep clients engaged between coaching calls.

I struggled through trying several paper worksheets and workbooks to guide students, but I wasn’t getting the results I wanted. (junk engagement)

When the smart phone with the ability to search the internet came along, I could see my clients were curating (i.e. searching, finding, collecting, commenting, changing, remixing, and sharing.)

I thought, “Why not do that for learning?”, so I started asking them to answer questions, interact with information and colleagues, and go find examples of the learning content using their mobile devices.

eWorkbook development and success

I began searching for possibilities and I struggled testing several apps, until we created best practices using eWorkbooks, and after testing them, began to use eWorkbooks as my clients always had their devices with them.

Then we used eWorkbooks (Google Forms with the training slides as well as interactive questions, curating links and tasks, example images and videos, etc.) This became powerful for my coaching clients as they were able to share ideas and get the benefits of social learning even though they were not in the training course or classroom.

My clients [Engaging Screenagers] completed eWorkbooks using their mobile devices as they were learning interactively while, at the same time, they were developing habits of learning with their devices (optimal engagement) instead of killing time with them. (junk engagement)

Students used eWorkbooks to while I lead the discussion and guided them, and after they submitted their answers, they would get their responses sent to their inbox so they could review their learning Moments of Growth. (optimal engagement)

Because the students’ responses from eWorkbooks go right into a spreadsheet in real-time, as the teacher I can monitor what students are doing to give them guidance in the moment, as well as track their learning develop over time.

Since those early days, I’ve had great luck supporting my coaching clients and entrepreneur friends use Google forms for 360° reviews for evaluations as well as use eBrochures and eMenus to test new ideas and actively engage and actively interact with customers.

All client info has been scrubbed of identifying information unless they have given me specific, written permission to quote them.
