Last week I had the privilege to speak alongside a set of world-class presenters–including top management thinker Marshall Goldsmith–at Alan Weiss’ Million Dollar Consulting Convention.
Two things struck me about Marshall. First, he is down-to-earth and genuinely interested in sharing his insights so he can help others. Second, although he is hired at a premium price to coach top CEOS, he feels that he himself still needs a coach.

Marshall says there are three delusions from which we all suffer:
- I can objectively evaluate my own behavior.
- I have the willpower I need to do this on my own.
- I don’t need help to achieve my goals.
That’s why he has someone contact him every morning for a short coaching session.
If one of the world’s top coaches isn’t afraid to ask for help, what about the rest of us?
