1. You are stuck and currently not getting everything out of your life and/or your business that is in it. Your energy level could be much higher. As can the balance in your private bank account.
2. You have no focus, no clear mission in your life and want to figure out your real motivations. Or you sleep poorly and often feel restless.
3. You are successful on the outside, but you lack enthusiasm in your work and sometimes feel bored and empty inside.
4. You are doing pretty well business-wise, but your relationship is in a rut or you fight just a little too often. There is too little freedom and independence.
5. You have some knots to cut and you want to spar with an independent sounding board about your dilemma.
6. You received a bag of money when selling your business or for other reasons and are wondering: now what?
7. Should you continue to grow your business or is now the time to sell your business? You have become more of a manager/toddler leader than an entrepreneur?
8. You're done with your business partner(s) and the time has come to say so. But how do you handle that?
- Stop making half-hearted choices
- Follow a clear strategy
- Say goodbye to activities that do not suit you or that you are not good at
- Feel yourself the entrepreneur and professional again instead of a kindergarten leader of your staff
- Organize your business so smart that you both remain successful and genuinely happy
In fact, the deeper cause of your restlessness and dissatisfaction is a lack of clear goals. Or a business that no longer suits you.
Possible consequences if you take no action again today:
- your wife is leaving you
- burnout or other physical complaints
- bore-out
- the lack of future successes.
If you do take action and from now on make conscious choices that suit you as an entrepreneur then the results will also be clear:
- greater pleasure
- more time
- more focus
- more money
- more love
- more freedom

Getting you back to doing what you were made for. That's what makes me happy. And in fact, I've been doing that for as long as I can remember.
More than 25 years ago I started in the due diligence practice at Deloitte, then as a Corporate Acquisition Advisor at KPMG Corporate Finance. I have been self-employed since 2000: via a detour as a commodity broker in London and a period in Mexico, since 2004 I have been a professional Business Coach for entrepreneurs and executives, who want to get the most out of themselves.
As an entrepreneur or executive, business and personal are not separable. As an entrepreneur, husband and father myself, I know all about that. That's why you can spar with me about business challenges and relevant private matters. Because that's who I am: a sparring partner, strategist and confidant all in one.
In the meantime, I have coached hundreds of entrepreneurs and executives in more than a thousand conversations, which has helped them achieve the results you probably have in mind.
In my role as a Business Coach, for more than 25 years I have guided entrepreneurs with the successful sale of their business.
Because that should be the crowning achievement of every smart entrepreneur: a 'Happy Exit' make.

'Book for MEN is sensational.'
- Eugene Roorda of BNR News Radio on the bestselling Book for Men
Life is simple but not easy. You can think of it as a parlor game. The better you know the rules of the game, the more you can occupy yourself with essentials. The only way to success and happiness is through Consciousness.
'Smit knows how to build a bridge between spirituality and business.'
- Het Financieele Dagblad about The Rules of the Game
My approach is always personal and customized. Not with a standard step-by-step plan or from a rigid methodology.

In a short video interview with Peter Gielissen I explain more about my approach Insight Action Harvesting ©.
Every smart entrepreneur has a Business Coach. Because you want to see concrete and lasting results quickly.
1. You set goals that motivate you
Business coaching helps you clarify, formulate and outline your goals. In line with your personal values.
2. You prioritize and make real choices
A coach provides you with insights and tools to set priorities and make choices. In order to be more successful professionally and privately.
3. You have focus and balance
As a mirror, sounding board and confidant all in one, a coach helps you take focused action to get to what you want to reap.
1. You are not in your natural flow
You are stuck and not getting the most out of your life. While you want so much to be yourself and live according to your personal values.
2. You stand alone and keep going in circles
You are surrounded by yes-men. You miss a sparring partner who speaks your language. Someone who mirrors you, and helps you cut through knots.
3. You are out of balance
You lack focus, sleep poorly and often feel restless. While you actually know that your personal happiness and business success go hand in hand.
Stop by in Amsterdam and I'll help you get much more profit, much more freedom and much more fun. That's the promise.

Do you have a question? Maybe below is your question with an answer.
What is a Personal Coach?
As a Personal Coach, I help entrepreneurs and executives with personal problems. Personal problems result in bottlenecks in your personal life and career as an entrepreneur.
Is Personal Coaching right for me?
Are you not happy with business success and is your personal life not balanced? Personal Coaching is suitable if you experience bottlenecks in both areas and are willing to make difficult choices.
What does Personal Coaching provide me with?
Personal Coaching will bring you more happiness, freedom and success. You get the best out of yourself when you are in balance. The three life questions "who am I?", "what can I do?" and "what do I want?" offer insights that shape the rest of your life.
How long does a Personal Coaching program take?
The process depends on your personal goals. Make an appointment with me and I will help you achieve greater profit, happiness, joy and success. That's a promise.
