I was fortunate to be live-coached a second time by celebrity entrepreneur, teacher and coach of coaches Eben Pagan just a few days ago. Eben is one of the early online successes, having started several multi-million dollar businesses and being interviewed by the likes of Tony Robin and Larry King.  Today he and his wife Annie, lead a fantastic coaching program for coaches that I'm learning a ton from! 

One of the things Eben said to me not only stunned and surprised me, it really changed how I view myself and how much I believe in myself as an entrepreneur in the midst of change.  

It made me realize how critically important it is to have someone in your life who's a few steps ahead of you in the direction  you're looking to go, who takes the time to know you and believe in you.  Sometimes, when we're climbing our first big mountain, we need that reassurance of someone who's been up it many times before.
