Sometimes I like to bring out different tools, examples, or stories in order to help my clients see something from a different perspective.  I do this because there is not a one size fits all approach in business coaching.  I like to think of it as a “business whisperer” approach.  In other words, how do I get my point across to this person or organization so they can relate to it?  

A couple of days ago, my daughter gave me this poem that she had written on one of the tools I like to use… Dr. Seuss… specifically the book, “Oh the Places You’ll Go.”

Out of the mouths of babes... I love you Regan.


 

The Inspiration of Dr. Seuss

All the Places you’ll go”
by Regan Siegfried

 

Do you know; all the places you’ll go?

All of the happiness, love, and strife

All the things that will cross your mind

All the people; cruel and kind

The places you’ll go; the places you’ll see

Nobody knows; no one exactly

Head held high in the air, high with pride

You can cross any obstacle; no matter how wide

 

Listen to his thoughts, his good memories

Cat and the Hat, The Grinch; yes indeed

He’s not a nuisance; not a weed

What he is, is more like a seed

To start the growth of your future; may it be bright

One of those bright moments, may happen tonight


Do you know; all the place you’ll go?

 

Do you?
