Dominique Mas acknowledges that if people want to see real change in their lives, they have to do the work to make it happen.
Last week, I spoke to someone who contacted me about potentially receiving coaching from me, and after a short conversation, I said, “No thank you – I’m not interested in working with you.”

That person wanted a quick fix. They wanted someone to “kick their butt” and hold them accountable.
Whether we are talking about becoming more productive, becoming a better leader, or becoming less of a victim to your unconscious biases, we are talking about transformation. And true transformation takes work.
And the energy for the work needed for transformation must come from you. Not from your coach, from your parents, from your partner, from your boss. The energy for transformation must come from you.
