As a coach Eric Reid is currently working with individuals and teams to uncover their potential and help them learn to live a life of success. But what is a life of success? A life of success is more about the process of living life successfully then arriving at a “success point” in the future.
How does he do that?
Through one-on-one and group coaching, seminars, workshops, and speaking I help dream builders identify where they are stuck, remove the obstacles, design a strategic plan to active their goals, motivate them into action to allow them to grow beyond the current situation. Success Life is about personal and professional development designed to help clients shift from…
* Functional to SIGNIFICANT!
* Ordinary to OUTSTANDING!
* Average to EXCELLENT!
Everything he does includes – coaching, mentoring, speaking – is tailored to ensure that those I work with become…
* INSPIRED to live with passion and purpose
* ENERGIZED to focus on what is truly important
* EMPOWERED to create lasting results
When you work with Eric he will make sure that you have
* An AWARENESS of who you are, your true purpose and gifts;
* The FUEL to forge ahead and take your life and business to the next level
* The TOOLS needed to strategically and successfully navigate through your life and business
* SUCCESS on your terms
Entrepreneurial Role Models:
Eric’s Mom
When business started difficulties overcame:
“I began to plan my exits following my son’s request I thought okay one of the things I need to do is have two strategies, how to leave the corporate job safely but how to enter the entrepreneur life successfully. I don’t want to be left hanging with that gap because let’s be honest when you start a business there is a dry period, there is a start-up period. There is a struggle. And I see so many people wake up one morning and declare I’m leaving my job but I’m going to start my soap factory. I often encourage stay with your job, utilise that income, utilise those resources as you transition. Yeah you might have to work to full-time jobs for a while but trust me trying it the other way really stinks”…[Listen for More]

Other Quotes From the Chat with Eric Reid:
- “everybody has doubts, they may not vocalise it, they may not express it, they may be covering up their doubts with enthusiasm and passion and motivation and inspiration but in the quiet still night we all have that fear of like okay can I really do this, can I really really do this? But the difference is if you are going to be successful have the doubts but have a plan to overcome them, stay in momentum, stay in process, stay in whatever systems you design to create your business and go ahead and have those doubts but don’t let them stop you from moving forward”
- “one of the things I really found a value was I asked people what they thought I was good at. Because I sort of had my mind on what I was going to do as I started to ask people was not completely different but it was a shade or two different that I stop to re-evaluate like why does everybody think I’m good this I think that’s my natural normal like that’s easy for me. I was going to try and do something really big and difficult and everyone was like pointing out that they really value and like me, they think I have a skill set in this thing that I find easy. So don’t be afraid to slow down from your vision and your dream and say what is it that I do well? What is it that I bring to the market that nobody else does? And listen really authentically, listen and dig into that”
- “I don’t know if I would have wanted to shortcut the learning curve. Because in that, especially in what I do I think I have more awareness of what other people are at in the process. But to that effect also where I am now has been because I’ve let go of more controls so to speak. I thought it all had to be perfectly perfect, I thought it had to be this finished product before I started and that created a lot of resistance for me and it created a lot of resistance in getting it going. And often throughout the process I’ve learned when you show up with real authentic intent and you do provide the best that you can provide that are allows you to make mistakes but it releases that need for perfection. Clients are meeting me where I am at and where they are at not where we are going to be five or ten years from now together”
- “there is the belief, that internal believe which is that heart centred place of I am worthy, this is good, I have value. It’s different than the mindset. And often I’ll see people really successful with the mindset and they have got their affirmations, and they have got their vision boards, and they’ve got all that but they don’t fully believe and buy into it”
- “systems, habits and actions. You cannot dream your way to success you have actually got to get up and do some of the work, you can’t shout out affirmations and expect your business to grow if you are not showing up and doing the work required. And doing that work over time consistently compounded, doing it when it doesn’t look like anything is going the way that it should go is when you have got to stay with it.”
