Coaching – Is It For Me?
Wouldn't it
be marvellous if we could all reach our full
potential, living a life where home, relationships, work, family and health were
in a harmonious but stimulating and satisfying balance?
We
need to be creative yet conforming, work 'smart' while juggling other
commitments, be flexible yet meet deadlines. We need to be adaptable,
approachable team players, while achieving our individual goals. We need to be
efficient, effective managers in all areas of our lives if we are going to enjoy
real success.
How do we juggle all these
demands and remain motivated and focused and in control?
That´s where life coaching comes in.
The process of life coaching will help you define
what is right for you, at this time in your life, and more important, will help you achieve your
goals.
Let´s face it, if you always do what you always did, you´ll always get
what you always got. And if you don´t like what you've got,
it´s time for change.
Coaching helps you to focus on what you want to achieve,
and brings a
clarity of vision to enable you to see how to get what you
want. A coach works with you, using questions that help you
to define and meet your needs.
You
come up
with the solutions. After all, you are the one who knows what the best answers
are for you.
Don't think this is a soft
option though. Coaching can be pretty demanding at times, as you are helped to
weigh up your real values and priorities and challenged by your coach to make
decisions that will move you forward to achieve your goals and make those
important changes.
Your coach will listen to you
- really listen - and will keep you on track and accountable for your actions.
This is done in a safe and
confidential environment, where you are given time and space to think, talk and
be listened to. You are not judged - you look at your actions by your own
standards and no-one else's. It is a surprisingly powerful process.
We often ask ourselves
questions like “Why don't I feel like I am achieving all I want to?”.
There is
something unique about the relationship between a coach and a client that makes
you focus and achieve in ways that you might not manage on your own. It has a
lot to do with the fact that your coach is impartial, and completely focused on
you. His attention won't be diverted by what he, or anyone else thinks you should be doing. Your coach is totally focused on helping
you to look at all your options and make the right choices for your life.
Coaching can benefit anyone
and everyone. It is most effective for people who
are ready to participate in their own development and commit 100% to it.
Half measures just don't work!
