Should a coach talk about himself or herself?
In conversation with Jason (the Mr Bootle who creates all this web stuff for me) it came up again that it takes some effort to get me to talk about me.

I have caught myself inadvertently using time as a pressure device to get things done (leaving things till the last minute), then changing my physical state because of the lack of it.
