What is Coaching?
One-to-one support for the goals and plans you are currently undertaking.
Coaching is a way to help you make the best use of your own resources.
It brings out your best capabilities, helps you realise your dreams and ambitions. Coaching is concerned with goal setting and achievement and can focus on any area of life.
"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us."
Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Typical reasons for wanting to use a coach are:
- To get more from life
- To stretch and grow
- To do things more easily or different
Coaching looks forward, from this point on... "Everything in my life has brought me to this point, what can i do now, where can i go from here?"
So coaching is entirely different from counselling as counselling helps you make sense of the past.
Benefits of using a coach:
- You take stock of where you are and where you want to be
- You take more effective and focused actions, set clearer goals
- You stop putting up with whatever is dragging you down
- You create momentum so that it is easier to get results
- You feel energised, enriched, motivated and inspired
A coach will help you to identify and stay focused and the key tasks necessary to achieve your goals. Importantly a coach has your best interests at heart - for you its like having a personal trainer for the mind and soul, a guardian angel to help you get on the track you want to be on... and stay on it.
