The 100 Day Challenge.
Together We Play BetterPowerful personal and business growth programs designed specifically for coaches like you! We have a variety of great games for you to play to expand your business and the rest of your life. Before we get into the details, have a look at these four fun rules for coaches that will set the stage for you.
Rule #1 for great coaches:
ALWAYS PLAY BIG IN YOUR OWN LIFEAs a Coach you are out in the world inspiring and challenging people to play a BIG game in life. In order to do that with powerful alignment of word and deed, you MUST be playing a big game in your own life. Truly, it is the only option for you.
At the same time, as a Coach, you also know that to truly play BIG you need a highly supportive environment. This is what you will find in the CoachVille 100 Day Challenge - a powerful coaching environment designed for YOUR success.
Rule #2 for great coaches
PLAY WITH PURPOSEMost people have been trained in the “Industrial Mind”, so they perceive play as frivolous. It is our mission - as the global community of coaches - to challenge this perception of play! We are out to prove that we can PLAY WITH PURPOSE in the areas of life that matter most. AND achieve great results while creating an experience of the joy of play rather than the stress and drudgery of work.
That is what we will all do together in these 100 Day Challenge programs - each one is designed as a game.
Rule #3 for great coaches
TOGETHER WE PLAY BETTERTo step out into the world as a Coach, you MUST be a strong advocate for community and collaboration, co-creating an environment of profound support. You also know that when you play alone it is far to easy to hide out and play safe. In the 100 Day Challenge program EVERYONE plays publicly. You will be seen and known - no hiding or disappearing when it gets tough.
If you have participated in athletics or performing arts then you have experienced “the edge” that comes from knowing that other people will be watching you play! With our new community game system you will experience “the edge” throughout the program because your game card and results will be seen by everyone else in the game.
Next...
Here is how each 100 Day Challege program is designed1) Each week on Monday you will participate in a team training session (by teleclass) lead by one of our Coach Training staff.
In the first session you will design your vision for the game. The first week is called pre-season - you will craft your online vision board with words and pictures that bring your game to life.
On subsequent weekly team calls each session will include engaging team dialogue, practicing skills and exploring strategies for playing your game better. Each week you will play your game and accumulate points by completing exercises, taking actions and getting results.
2) This is followed by a daily check-in call.
There are two ways that we do this. In small group programs (30 players or less) this will be a 15-minute buddy call. In larger group programs (31 players or more) we orchestrate a 30-minute call with our coaching staff where you meet with the whole team for celebration, inspiration and accountability.
3) The program is boosted by our incredible online community game system. Here you create your player profile, virtual vision board and your personal game card.
Each week you will customize the game card with your action and result plan for the week - knowing that it will stretch you a bit (or a LOT ;-) out of your comfort zone. Then you will hit the “commit” button and the new game begins. Play time! Meanwhile your team mates will see what you have committed to on your game card and you will see theirs as well.
Rule #4 for great coaches
DESIGN A WINNING ENVIRONMENT BECAUSE
THE ENVIRONMENT ALWAYS WINS!This provocative and profound coaching mantra has more truth than we often realize. When you design a winning environment you shift from Will power into World power. Or has Thomas would say: You can delegate your success to your environment.
That is why we have designed a winning environment that will PULL you toward the success you desire. This includes:
- A coach leading the team calls
- You will play on a team of colleagues
- You will have a team-connect call every day
- You will play publicly using the community game system. This creates a highly visible accountability system that is quite motivating.
- You will be inspired by your team mates as you share and collaborate using the CoachVille Coach Connect feature.
Imagine...
What you will create with the Human Spirit of Play evoked in your life!
Who you will become with a truly inspiring environment urging you forwardIs your masterpiece waiting for you to step up?
Is your heart calling for you to take the risk and really play?
Is your attraction power as a Coach hinging on your courage to play a BIG game yourself?I hope so!
A BIG Opportunity is coming - another great reason to play now!
We are creating an environment with several key strategic partners where we will need A LOT of coaches who are capable of leading a 100 Day Challenge program as the Head Coach or hosting the daily check in calls as an Assistant Coach. As we recruit coaches, we will look first and foremost to coaches who have actively PLAYED in the 100 Day Challenge programs.

This is an updated version of the original 2001 Coachville Challenge , designed by late, great Thomas Leonard (www.ThomasLeonard.com). The Coachville Challenge served for me as the incubation period in which I began to design the Game of Games (www.gameofgames.com). Initially, I conceived of the Game being a live, face-to-face game. But all of my advisors, drawn from participants of the 2001 Coachville Challenge, lived in other places. It was not practical to bring them together with me to co-design or help me design the GOG. So this led to the development of the virtual Game of Games experience.
I see now that Thomas' successor is now offering an update version of the challenge (much more expensive than the original, BTW -- and more expensive than the current Game of Games). His is a very nice guy, but I think even he would agree that he is not nearly on the same level as his mentor, the visionary genius Thomas Leonard, who helped define the profession of life coaching as we know it, and the format of teleclasses.
Thomas, my old mentor, I miss you, I salute you. I wish to give others, as you gave me...
