"People have the innate knowledge, they just need to be asked the right questions."
Plato
It never ceases to amaze me, I have now been a coach for over 3 years, and last night I had major insights about my money mindset, that my friends was a direct attribute to being asked questions from my coach\'85 Today I still have a life coach and a business coach, and I honestly feel that I am powering through this life with Clarification and Certainty.
"if you always do what you've always done - What are you pretending not to know?\'85" Susan Scott
For myself and many of my clients, it is the simple Doh moment (like homer simpson) that makes the difference for so many - The answers are within you, it just takes someone to work with you in Co-Achieving the same result.
Many of us fall into the trap of believing that hard work may lead to success, but that success in one area of life comes at the cost of another: poor health, lack of time, strained family relationships or poor productivity, perhaps. Ironically, even though hard work and determination may create results, they may not be the results you were looking for, and you may find yourself back where you started, or worse, further from your real intentions.
Athletes and performers understand this dilemma. They know they need someone else - a trained professional to help them set goals, discover real needs, act as a sounding board and work effectively toward ultimate goals of excellence. So, they are willing to hire a coach or a teacher. No serious athlete or musician would expect to progress very far without one.
A Coach will :-
- Encourage you to be the best you can be;
- Challenge you to dream bigger than you've ever dared;
- Identify goals and support you as you reach those goals quickly; 4 Facilitate changes to limiting thinking and behaviour patterns;
- Provide the structure, tools and perspectives to help you along;
- Cheer from the sidelines while you chase your dreams; and
- Expect more of you than you expect of yourself.
But all this change sounds a bit scary...
There's no doubt that rapid change will occur once you hire a coach. Things that seemed impossible before become a reality. In particular:
- You begin to take yourself more seriously;
- You take more effective and focused actions immediately;
- You stop putting up with what is dragging you down;
- You create momentum so it's easier to get results; and
- You set better goals that you might not have without the coach.
"It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the ones most responsive to change." Charles Darwin
The first step to any process is being open and willing to change.
