Coaching By Osmosis

Napa Valley, California, USA

Cinco de Mayo, May 5, 2024



This essay, Coaching By Osmosis, is the fifth in the quadrilogy Coaching: It is also the sequel to Being Around Werner.

I am indebted to Keith Czarnecki who inspired this conversation.




Work in progress.

I don't think of them as "life" coaches. They don't teach me how to live or to strategize or be successful or to win like life coaches do. I think of them as "being" coaches. All I have to do is be around them, observe how they be, then take on that way of being as a possibility for myself too. My rationale is "If they can be that way, then being that way is a possibility for me too.". I get their coaching by osmosis.

In this regard, Werner is such a great "being" coach. In the early days before all the courses, all you had to do was be around him, and you'd get it.
