Coach Mike Now

A friend once shared an idea with me. He said that the answer to any question that you don't ask is "NO!" What questions are you afraid to ask yourself? I have never been one to want to change everything. If it ain't broke don't fix it.... right. But that doesn't mean that I don't consider whether or not something can be improved upon, or perhaps needs changing BEFORE it breaks. Check out the Coach Mike Now stream tonight to see what questions you might want to ask yourself to improve your business, your community, your country, or even just yourself.

We hear the stories way too often these days. Rude Customers harassing workers at businesses. Rude Employees that treat customers badly. Unruly parents at their kid's sporting and school events. When will it stop??? When we make it stop! When we get back to being civil! You need to stream this episode. It is up to we the people to fix this.

I am open to learning new things. But change for the sake of change is not good. People, society at large, businesses, and especially government tend to be very poor about learning lessons. We all want the next greatest idea...but we often spend too much energy trying to be first, or be different, instead of being right. Clicks over Integrity. Over and over again we see bad results while people sit around scratching their heads and wondering "why did that happen?" Let's see if we can perhaps clear away some fog and learn at least one lesson tonight.

Why do we love social media posts about animals but ignore posts about current events and politics? My dog won't be voting in the next election. (He's not a Democrat)... LOL. I don't like division. I don't like hate. And I really don't like evil. We cannot ignore what is going on around us. We do so only to our own detriment. So what is the solution? Do you know? Stream Coach Mike Now tonight, and even better, join me as we see if we can't change a few hearts and minds out there for the better.

Your truth isn't my truth isn't their truth isn't...... Bologna. Truth is Truth! We may have different experiences. But in the same way that you can three eye witnesses to an accident come up with three versions of what they say, truth is still the truth. Business, Politics, Religion, LIFE.... right and wrong matters. The truth matters. The question is, does truth matter to you? Does right and wrong matter to you? Join me tonight and together we can identify right and wrong and truth. (Truth can sometimes be wrong too, right??? )

What is keeping you from reaching your goals? What stops our family, our business, our country from being the best we can be? Check out this episode of Coach Mike Now as we discuss the Enemies Within! Who are these enemies? You'll have to watch to find out....

April Underwood is running for a position on the Catawba County School Board. She wants to help bring conservative values and parent's rights. The children come first.

Why do we not care about the little things that matter? Spelling, Grammar, Truth... It is easy to think little things don't matter, but if you are sloppy with little things, people may not trust you with the big things. I'll discuss how we see this in business, in politics, etc. Plus check in to see who my guest will be next week. I guarantee you will walk away from this episode with at least one nugget to help you improve your life.

Happy New Year, again.... during the last month I've been considering, working, considering, thinking, ... redoing the web site, etc. In the meantime the daily battles we all face go on. Whether talking business, politics, personal values, etc., if you don't have accountability and a modicum of common sense, you will probably have to work harder, and are more likely to fail. So check out this update to see what's going on and things you might want to be on the watch for. I guarantee you will walk away from this episode with at least one nugget to help you improve your life.

Providing excellent customer service is not just a matter of how good you are, but how you handle things when you mess up. Stream in tonight when Coach Mike discusses when and when not to use automation to serve your customers. Do you want to trust your income to a robot?

Tonight I'm going to share some stories I've heard recently about people complaining about something that they probably wouldn't have complained about just a few shorts years ago, and how the business handled the situation. Is nobody content to go about their lives and leave unimportant things alone? Where has common sense gone?

It amazes me how much junk mail I still get. What amazes me even more is WHAT types of junk mail I get. Is it REALLY worth it for these companies to do this? And if you're a seasoned citizen 65 or over.... watch out! Don't do this to your customers please. Also I will be discussing some new software I'm using as well as some other customer service pointers. Maybe more....

Do you ever wonder why everything that can go wrong always does seem to go wrong at the same time? When it comes to business or life, it may be that everything piled up until it reached a breaking point. With our government, I think there are other reasons. There's one simple (not always easy but simple) way to solve problems and discern what is going on around you. Tune or stream in tonight.

Common sense ain't so common anymore. Just like civility, ambition, and pride in one's work, common sense has been slowly slip, slip, slipping away into the sunset. Check out this episode of Coach Mike Now so we can help bring more sense to the common events of our world.

Have you tried to do business with yourself? It's not always easy to view ourselves as the customer sees us. Tonight I'll discuss some customer service tales that may help you do better. Also, a quick rundown of things I've noticed, things I hear, and questions I want answers to when it comes to our country and our leadership. I hope you'll catch tonight's stream..... I know I'll be here.

After taking a break, Coach Mike is back with some questions to be asked, along with some customer experience stories. Why do businesses do things that will surely anger or alienate customers? Find out what else Coach Mike is up to along with some networking opportunities to help grow your business and improve your personal life.

And then there's me... I have both beauty and age.... LOL. Where do we draw the line between new ideas and respect for our elders? Can we have both? Is this something new or has there always been the divide between the young and the old? Tune in tonight as I shed some light on the issues and possibly, just possibly offer a solution.

You may have heard it said that your attitude determines your altitude. That is so true. I did a podcast this last week with a man who is totally blind. It was one of the most inspirational interviews I've ever done. I'll fill you in on that and also lay out some very important questions for you to be asking as we move into May.

Politics is a dirty word for many. And it has changed very much over the years. What has changed and why? What has it become? Tonight I'll clarify some differences and what I think politics should look like in an ideal world. I can't believe we are tolerating some of the stuff we're seeing today. And no, it's not just about Trump.

A lot of customer service is common sense. It's easier than you might think to wow your customers. Catch tonight's show and see how you measure up. Plus I'll have a few more goodies for you too.

Why? There are so many questions about so many things. Life sometimes seems like we're driving in a fog. At others you think everyone else is driving in a fog. Check in tonight as Coach Mike tries to clear away some of the Fog.

Do you remember Connecting the Dots? It was like a coloring book but you had to connect dots or numbers to form the image you want to color. Well today we need to play Connect the Dots with so many things: Politics, Business, Personal Lives, even Religion. It is called "Critical Thinking." If you do not connect the dots properly, you won't have the correct image to color in. Tonight I will be Connecting the Dots to help you make sure you're coloring in the right image that you need to color in.

Life is full of ups and downs. Experience matters. Coach Mike shares some of his experiences and how he dealt with his successes and failures. Plus announcing some interesting topics coming up here and on his Weedwhacker Podcast.

If you look at almost any aspect of our lives, we seem to fall short of solving very important problems. There are multiple reasons for this, but one of the main reasons is a lack of common sense and critical thinking skills. Tonight Coach Mike will paint the picture and connect the dots so you can take better steps to move forward in your life situations.

We are living in a strange time. There are all sorts of events around us and around the world. Are these events just coincidence? Or are they evidence of something much worse happening? Tonight Coach Mike will be breaking down what is going on and what we should be doing about it.
