Coach EM GEM with Cliff Samara #234: What Does LUCK Really Mean?
Coach EM GEM - LUCK
As a sports coach, I never said, “Good luck.”
I’d say:
“I know you can do this - because of the preparation. Now go and enjoy the battle of competition.”
Why?
Because I never wanted athletes to believe their performance came down to luck.
One of my greatest inspirations is my father-in-law, Cliff Samara.
Born in Sri Lanka, he left home at just 15 years old to chase his

Coach EM Gem #228: Coaching Questions to Unlock Drive
Coach EM Gem — Coach the Person First
One of the biggest mistakes leaders make is coaching the problem before they understand the person.
The better you understand the person in front of you, the better you can coach them.
Try asking:
• What motivates you?• What's your why?• What gives you a sense of purpose?• What does success look like for you?• How do you like to receive feed

Coach EM Gem #226: Go Curious. Lead Better. Listen now.
Coach EM Gem — Go Curious
Micromanagement is often driven by certainty.
Coaching leadership is driven by curiosity.
The next time you're tempted to tell someone what to do, try one of these instead:
❌ "That won't work."✅ "What if...?"
❌ "Here's the answer."✅ "I'm curious..."
❌ "I don't know."✅ "Imagine if...?"
A few of my favourite coaching questions:
• What if there was another way?• Wha

Coach EM Gem #222: Do you want to go to the next level? Here's how ...
Coach EM Gem - Do You Want to Go to the Next Level?
Many people say:
"I want to go to the next level."
That's a good start.
But a better question is:
"How can I grow to the next level?"
Wanting is intention.
Growing requires action.
The key is not making a giant leap. The key is making the first step so small and so easy that you can't talk yourself out of it.
Growth happens when action f
