The Summit of Success
How to Teach is a book published by HardMagic Press, designed for personal trainers but informative and useful for anyone coaching others on a personal basis. HardMagic is based out of Santa Barbara, CA, and is owned by Matt Hackney, who also owns the established fitness company MOVFitness.
An excerpt: “Motivation can be a tricky thing. Whether it’s with a friend, an employee, or a family member—a personal or a business relationship—it can be difficult to find the balance between making a person do something and failing to inspire him or her to do it at all. Yet it does not have to be difficult. The “Past, Present, Future” model is a simple and effective verbal tool that can be used to motivate others to mutual benefit. Often people believe that they are using this model, when in fact they are using it incorrectly or only partially.”
