Good Performance Coaching Can Not Only Get Your Life in Shape, but Your Kids Too
A simple and fun tool gives kids responsibility for their behavior and discipline.
As anyone involved in performance coaching can attest, no matter how successful one is, nothing is quite right if one’s home life is suffering.
Performance coaching is at its best when it addresses areas of home dynamics as well as career and relationships. Dave Thorpe, Chief Encourager at Path2Success offers an innovative and successful tool that has many Southern California families singing its praises. It’s called the Consequence Box and it involves the kids in their own behavior control and discipline.
“Many parents are recognizing they may not have all the tools necessary to handle the battles that are waged between them and their kids,” says Thorpe. “They are finally saying the obvious, ‘I need help! Show me the way to put harmony back into our home!’”
So just what is the magic tool that can show you how to change your life? Explains Thorpe, “The overview of the Consequence Box is this. Create a box that contains rules, consequences for breaking those rules, and ultimately punishments that have been agreed upon by the kids and parents in advance. When they act out, the box containing their own ideas for consequences are the ultimate judge.”
Why does that work? Thorpe continues, “Suddenly, the anger that is usually directed at the parents, is now displaced as the kids must deal with the box and what they’ve agreed to put in it. It not only has a settling affect on the kids, but they all seem to get a kick out of it. There really is nothing that can compare with the realization that what could have been more yelling and crying has now been replaced by laughing. Harmony in the home is the ultimate performance coaching.”
“When I came to Dave Thorpe for performance coaching it never occurred to me that he could make a difference at home too,” offers Mark Tanner. “But then when he asked me what life was like with my kids, he could see that it was a really painful part of my life and that it needed to be addressed. The odd thing is, I didn’t even know how bad it was or what it meant to me. Thanks to the Consequence Box and Dave’s performance coaching, life is completely different and there is harmony in my home.”
“When your life purpose is raising your kids like mine is, it’s hard to admit that there’s room to improve,” adds Shelly Smith. “But once I finally admitted that I don’t know everything, I turned to Dave for some performance coaching. He has helped to not only change my life around, but my kids too. We are vastly happier individuals and a happier family.”

Get Training on how to Remove your Biggest Obstacle to Success
Dave Thorpe, Path2success life coach says the sooner you get training, the sooner you can access your purpose in life, and reach your full potential.
Get training. Get aware. Get started. It’s a simple equation that could bring someone face to face with their most ardent obstacle—themselves—and help them achieve success. But most don’t know that the process is really just that simple, and they continue to fall back on tried and true excuses.
And it’s easy to verify. Just ask someone what keeps them from reaching their dreams. The excuses range from the economy, to being too busy, to not having enough education, to not being able to afford it, to it simply not being the right time, and the list goes on and on.
“But it’s you,” says Dave Thorpe, Path2Success life coach. “You may not want to think it’s you and that you are a victim of outside forces, but it’s you.”
Considering we’re stuck with ourselves, what do we do now? “Well it’s a good thing we’re stuck with ourselves, because we are magnificent!” continues Thorpe. “We just have the inability to answer a few key questions, such as who am I, what are my strengths, what is my purpose for life, and what is my true potential—without some help. And I’m here to do that. But make no mistake, once you get training and uncover all the hidden treasures inside you, there is no stopping you.”
What does it take to get training? “Well first of all,” adds Thorpe, “it isn’t nearly as scary as people think. It’s actually quite fun and enjoyable. And I certainly don’t tell our clients anything about them, it’s all designed so that we watch the unveiling of you together. After you get training, you get aware of who you are and what your potential is, and then you can get started living the life you were meant to live.”

I Need Help. Three Words that can Ignite the Beginning to a Successful Future
It’s just three simple words. I need help. They shouldn’t be difficult to say.
But we Americans are a funny bunch.
Americans, bent on self-reliance and pulling up one’s self by the bootstraps, have a terrible time saying to themselves or anyone else, “I need help.” To most, it feels like giving in. It feels un-American. It is the mark of weakness.
“To the contrary,” says Dave Thorpe, Chief Encourager at Path2Success4me, a San Diego company that provides performance coaching. “Saying ‘I need help’ requires a strength that can lead one along a path to great success. You just have to find the courage to say it, mean it, and act upon it.”
Continues Thorpe, “Look at how many smart, capable people are stuck in a dead-end job, have no career path to speak of, are suffering in a bad relationship, or live in a tumultuous household with out-of-control kids. There’s help out there for them, but they just can’t get themselves to say ‘I need help, even though all my efforts haven’t worked and I find I can’t do this alone.’”
Isn’t that a lot to ask? “Yes, it can be. But it can lead to such incredible breakthroughs,” adds Thorpe. “Let’s put it this way, nobody who has said, ‘I need help’ has ever regretted it. By contrast, everyone who has gotten to the end of their life and finally realized that they didn’t have all the answers — regrets not asking for a little help. Because it’s certainly out there to be had.”
That’s where Dave Thorpe and Path2Success4me comes in. Thorpe takes people on an innovative self-exploration and discovery that, along the way, uncovers who a person is, what their strengths are, and uncovers their purpose in life. All from saying, “I need help.”
“Well, let’s just say everything stems from there. An inability to say “I need help” is the Mount Everest standing in the way of where you want to go. And it takes a very strong person to move Mount Everest.”
If you’re ready to unleash your potential, contact Dave Thorpe at 760-415-7911, and say “I need help, show me the way to know how to change my life.” You may also visit their website, www.path2success4me.com.

Who am I? What is my Purpose? A Life Coach Says Someone does Indeed Have the Answers, and it is You.
There are very few people who haven’t asked the perennial questions, Who am I? What am I doing here? What is the purpose for life? What is my calling? Life coach Dave Thorpe says that individuals need not look too far, as the answers are within them!
Explains Dave Thorpe, “Most people are convinced that the answers will come from an external source…that someone is going to tell it to them. I believe that the correct responses are right here within us, just waiting to be communicated.”
But if we have the answers to Who am I and others, why don’t we know them? “Ah, therein lays the problem and the need for someone like me. All of our loves and abilities and passions and talents are within us, but along our life’s journey comes a litany of things to cover them up, not unlike Egyptian treasures that sink lower and lower beneath the sands of time. To get to the treasures inside of you, a certain amount of excavation will have to occur.”
And so what are the covers to Who am I? “The list is long,” offers Thorpe. “Everything from our self-imposed fears, to cues from our culture, to injuries we’ve sustained from our well-meaning but often ill-equipped parents, they pile on and begin to make it so all of the treasures within us have a terrible time being accessed.”
And that’s where you come in? “Yes, I can help you uncover what’s beneath, so that you can communicate you, to you. And that’s really the beauty of our course and coaching. I am not some wise man claiming to have the answers to your life. I am not a guru. I am not a sage. I simply help you get training on how to remove the barriers in your life, so light can break in and reveal the answers to the questions you’ve been asking for so long. Who am I? We’ll get you to answer that.”
But let’s say someone does get the answer to Who am I? Now what? “Now life can begin to fall in place. Now the road map before you is vastly different than when you were still asking, Who am I and not getting any answers. Life will look very, very different, and what you must do to grab as much joy out of life will suddenly feel tangible and doable. It’s a remarkable process, and wonderful to witness. Most people think my life sucks. However, with the right life training, it does not!”
