What is coaching?
Every coach runs their coaching practice according to their beliefs about what is the best way to help facilitate their client.
Coaching is helping another to reach your goals through accountability. There are many different types of coaching available:
- Career Coaching
- Corporate Coaching
- Business Coaching
- Personal Coaching
- Life Coaching
- Relationship Coaching
- Transitions Coaching
- Spiritual Coaching
- Abundance Coaching
- Health Coaching
This is just a partial list of the different specializations that are out there.
It is said that every successful person has had a coach. You would not go out and play tennis in a competitive environment without a coach. All great athletes are coached. All great speakers are coached. All great successful business executives have been coached.
If an athlete getting ready for the Olympics believes that it is important to have a coach so should every person getting ready to reach the next level of their business success, the next big spiritual journey, the next big change in a career or personal life.
We can not all make the shift on our own. Most people do better when they hold themselves accountable to someone else. This someone else should not be your significant other, a sibling or parent as they can not hold you totally accountable without bias.
Sometimes the people closest to us are the ones who try to protect us and as a result become naysayers and dreamslayers. Most loved ones do not do this intentionally, nevertheless, it is quite damaging to your dreams and visions. When self doubt starts creeping in it is hard to persevere.
Friends and co workers are definitely not in your corner in supporting your dreams and goals because “ birds of a feather flock together” . They want you to stay where they are at!
It is a proven fact that in 5 years from today you will stay the same as you are except for the books you read and the people you meet. Over an average of 5 years your income will rise in direct proportion to those friends you are hanging out with. So if all your friends are making $30,000 a year, chances are, so will you!
In order to fly with the eagles you must change course and change the birds you are hanging out with. This is not to say to abandon all your friends if they are all making less than what your goal is to make. You will see that as you grow, your friends will change.
So it comes down to the best way to move to the next level of whatever part of your life you are wanting to change or improve is to hire a coach to help in that process. A coach will never laugh at your dreams, will never scoff at your goals, and never be afraid of losing a friend because you are their client.
