I created the Obstacle Analysis Grid as a simple means of quickly identifying obstacles to success and developed numerous strategies and techniques to overcome them. This model served as the basis for my work as a coach and consultant over a number of years, and I wrote about them extensively in my number one bestselling book, You Can Have What You Want, and my audio program Effortless Success.
What was puzzling to me was that sometimes people would easily overcome the obstacles without any apparent technique and other people could stay stuck no matter how many things they tried.
