The Earned Life (2021)
Powerful lessons on being a better leader AND being a better human being
I have known Marshall Goldsmith for two decades and he has been friend and mentor throughout.
In this next phase of his life - perhaps the last - he is still breaking new ground and opening new paths. How many persons would cap his significant achievements in the world of coaching by freely giving away decades of proprietary material developed so painstakingly?
But the rational is simple if unusual. Marshall wants to continue to have impact. And he figures the best way for him to continue to have impact is to help those he trusts and respects to better serve their clients.
And this is not an ego trip. He does look for attribution and its OK if you do not mention him.
What i guy!
The Earned Life is more than a biography of an unusual teacher. It is also an encapsulation of some of his more powerful teachings.
The biggest takeaway for me - I learnt this from him long ago but the movie reinforced it - is that it is never about you. The best way to become a great coach is to work with great clients.
Amen!
