Coaching can range from a deeply transformative experience to a simply an ok one.
But what is the reason behind that?
In my opinion the overall experience and impact is mostly determined by the Coaches themselves.
A professional coach should have deep knowledge of Coaching methods and techniques, proper credentials & certification as well as experience.
But that’s not quite all it takes to be a great coach.
To be a great coach one needs to have certain qualities that unfortunately cannot be taught such as moral values and integrity, positive energy, an open mind and be totally committed to the client and the services provided.
It’s also very important to understand the reason why, one chooses to become a Life Coach.
If it’s just about the great income and the flexible schedule, all knowledge, or experience or fancy titles could never qualify a Coach as a great one.
I believe Coaching to be a calling and it pays back so much more than money. Coaching gave me a purpose in life. Helping others to succeed, live better or simply be happier is far more rewarding and soul healing for me than all the money in the world.
A Coach should always have in mind that Coaching is a profession than can influence people and therefore must be very careful and mindful when practicing it.
Even though Coaching is about setting and achieving goals, I prefer to start by exploring and establishing self-awareness. This will reveal your true motives and desires. Motivation is why you desire something.
And if your why is big enough the how doesn’t matter. If the reason why you want something is strong enough, it will compel you to take action.
My job is to help and guide you through it. I promise to listen to you carefully, keep an open mind, not judge you and respect your boundaries. I will be there to encourage and support you and I will do so, with care.
Remember that the only key to success is your willingness to commit to yourself and be consistent with your decision.
Finally, about the methods, tools and coaching models I use, you should know that I create a unique custom-made approach for each client that best suits their personality and their needs.
This allows us to work on your specific blind spot and address it properly, because if we don’t the results you will ger will be temporary. And that is definately not my goal.
My goal is by the time we complete our work together, you will not be needing me anymore. At least not as your Coach (but may be as a friend!), because by then you will have realized that success belongs to you 100% and you possess the power and the will to achieve any future goal on your own, without anybody’s help.
