I got 6 out 7! Love discovering this! Looking forward for more clarity and structure.
I scored 6 out of 7 yesses.
I am working as a coach. My title is Wealth Revolutionary. Interestingly most of my clients work on everything else as well as their wealth. My own issue/question is around marketing.
I know its necessary but feel its a waste of time so don’t dedicate myself to it.
What do I need to do to change this mindset?
I scored seven. I don’t have a specific question at this time just curious about the program.
I scored 7 out of 7, which surprised me. My question would be, what do you say when clients ask for your credentials? I don’t know how to respond to that since I don’t have a degree in counseling. I have almost completed a degree in English (Creative Writing), and I want to write self-help and inspirational articles that help people look at things differently, to change despair into hope. That is my life’s goal and my purpose in life, but I never would have thought of myself as a “coach,” even though it makes perfect sense.
I scored 7.. For several years,I have been encouraged by freinds,family,and clients to do something with my gifts,other than Hairdressing..not because they feel I dont like it, or they think im not talented..Its because they feel I can express creativity well,and have been told,i should write a book ‚or be a motivational speaker..They say i offer up-lifting perspective to enrich their emotional spirit,and stimulate their consciousness!So in 2008 i decided to persue Transformational speaking,Coaching,and eventualy write a book..Information and guidence/mentoring are what I am allways open for..I host a once a month inspirational seminar free,and have just recently Produced/completed an independant art film project.Its about positve Reality/Truth.. My question is Can you help me Go all the way with Coaching/Speaking..My ambition/intention is to realize a 6–7 digit income from selfdevelopment..Looking forward to any advice,and freindship you have for me..B-Well Alexander Antonio. Dallas,Tx.
Please send me details about enrolling for your coaching seminar.
Thanks
I got 4 out of seven. (I’ve spent some money for self-improvement but I’m not sure it reached $1k)
Don’t people expect educational/professional credentials, even licensing by a governmental agency????
I personally scored what I figure to be 6 out of seven and I could actually be 7 because I already have a coaching business.
I actually seek out coaching for business owners because they have issues that often cause their business to actually stall. they get so bound up with the problem that they can’t get past a barrier or two and the actually abandon the path they were taking which often times would be an entirely different approach to their bottom line income.
I also do business consulting which is associated with some degree of coaching in a little different format. From this coaching business I have developed a system that is presently ready to launch that will get most of the unemployed back to work in a position where they can not ever be laid off of a job again. the process is monumental and you can get a bit of an idea of what it is by going to http;//www.employalternate.com.
when you visit the site, if you do, then leave me a blog comment by accessing the blog link on the first page of the site and I will read it.
Hope to hear from you all soon.
I answered 7– knew i was
how do you get paid? or set self up to make a living at it?
I got 5 out of 7.
Now I need to know what to do next. Do I need to be a certified coach???
Hello David,
I’m obviously not able to tell how quickly your post-responses take usually — so I just thought I’d drop you a note and let you know that I didn’t receive an email or anything — so could you answer my question directly to my email?
Oh yeah, I also looked high and low for the 50 power questions you mentioned, and couldn’t find the link you had intended to put on the page.
Thanks!
Dave
Hi David,
It was a pleasure watching your video. I scored 6.5 as im training to be a hypnotherapist..
What i wanted to ask you is,how do i coach people when im low on confidence and get shaky f qestions are thrown at me,and also wouldnt people want to know one is qualified/certified to be a coach?
Thanks for your time,
Reet
(I couldnt see the link to the 50 power questions link,could you help e with that?)
7/7–AWESOME since I’d already decided last week that I wanted to add coaching to my repetoire (sp?) of income streams.
Question–Is it good form to give people a tape or CD of the sessions? So far I’ve only done followo-up e-mails with a synopsis of what we’ve talked about during the session.
If you want the 50 questions you can google — Coaching+David Wood and on his website is the link to the questions.
blessings!
Dear David,
I love your 50 Power questions. Thank you so very much.
My response to the questions was 7 out of 7.
I already have a coaching practice set up in Melbourne (business cards and website in place). I just need to get paying clients. I have offerred many complimentary sessions.
My goal is to be a full time life coach who empowers people and makes a positive difference to this wonderful world.
Thank you.
I can’t find the link to the 50 questions. Can someone email me with it if you have found it?
Thanks much!
I scored 6.5 out of 7 …
My Questions is how much do charge ?
Because My advice is Awesome!!!!
4 out of 7 but still dont know whether it will work in India
I got 5 of the 7. I’m still looking for the 50 questions and I’ll print the cards this afternoon. We’ll see what happens…
Business cards! That’s what I did. I got them printed for less than 10 dollars! Now I am making notes for coaching my clients And yes, I have spent over US $1000.00 for self-development courses and books but it never occured to me that I could make money out of that knowledge.
Thanks David, for your wonderful idea.

Hi David:
I scored 6 out of 7.
My question would be: What are my credentials for being a coach, other than my own lifelong pursuate of spiritual truth.

Hi, David.
I scored between a 5–6.
Where is the link for the 50 questions? I am rather shy and it is difficult for me to speak in large crowds. I am better in a one-on-one session. Will this problem work for me>
if i was honest probably 7 out 0f 7. i teach bronze medallion(surf lifesaving) in Australia as a volunteer. i have done psychophysical healing. starting public speaking as a motivational and inspirational speaker. am president of my surf club but never thought of myself as a coach. i cant find link to 50 questions
Des
7 out of 7. You have sent me on a stream of inspired thought. Thank you. I am questioning credentials though, but it’s not going to deter me.

I scored 7 out of 7. I truly enjoy helping others and am currently work in the health care field. My question about coaching would be what is a reasonable amount to charge someone when starting out? I’ve yet to become comfortable with charging others for advice, though I do understand the advantages.
i rated 7 out of 7. i have been involved with striving for personal knowledge since i was a young teenager by listening to audio tapes and reading books. I just turned 35 and took a my first transformation course the end of last yr and have driven to San Diego from Las Vegas several times over 7 months time to continue my education. I yearn for the knowledge and have discovered yet another education that i have been referred to that IS available in Vegas. Everyone tells me i should coach or be a speaker. I finally agree, i gained the confidence through my past education that i am pretty darn great at guiding them through their TRUE potential and experience True Happiness. i did recently awaken to the idea of making money through my gift, by having my first breakthrough in selfworth and a “i deserve” transformation.
My questions are… can a person that still desires more Knowledge give back to Anyone for an appropriate level coaching and Knowledge? also, what type of analysis would a coach give?…im sure that question could be answered with the link im unable to find here…thank u for the fire under my @#$$ to get this finally started.
I got 7 out of 7. I have a couple of questions :
1) I feel I should be succesful and rich before being able to coach others. Is this a mind limitation?
2) How do I know what to charge? I live in a country, Spain, where coaching is not popular. How do I overcome society’s distrust towards gurus and couselors?
Hi David,I scored 7 –7. Am a hypnotherapist and having just moved back to my home country from the US.There is such a great need here for brilliant coaches and I am extremely excited about the prospects. Really enjoyed listening to your video. hope to catch more of your talks
I scored 7 out of 7. I truly enjoy helping others and am currently work in the entertainment field and . My question about coaching would be what is a reasonable amount to charge someone when starting out?
I am catching up on my Finer Minds issues. I got all 7. While I have spent the last 20 years being an animal communicator, animals most often “mirror” things to their people just like humans do, so mostly I was coaching people.
I have realized I can CHOOSE my clients and some people I are not a match. However, if you are working with someone you inspired to work with and they still are holding onto that “victim” mentality, what techniques, processes, tools do you use to help guide them into taking more responsibility for what is happening in their life?
Thanks!! Morgine … could not find where to access the 50 questions.
Thanks David! I’m just now learning about FinderMinds so I’ve just watched your video. I scored a 7! I’ve been coaching on a volunteer basis to increase my skill set and it’s been incredible. The shifts in people’s lives, the results are incredible and I’m loving it! I’ve bee asked to come speak at a company in Southern California b/c of my volunteer/undercover coaching! So I will go print my business cards now! My question is, how do I get more clients? Thanks!
