Do You Need A Life Coach?
What is Life Coaching?
Life coaching is about structuring your thinking, beliefs, feelings and behaviours to produce great outcomes in your life. It includes an assessment of your current life position and a discussion about your desires, values, goals and dreams. It provides fresh ideas and knowledge, insightful tips and guidelines based on real experience, and culminates in a life plan to get you moving in the right direction.
Do You Need A Life Coach?
It can be very useful to have a highly qualified and experienced expert light the way for you. Why learn from a decade of your own mistakes? For every concern, issue and challenge in life, there are lighted pathways, excellent pointers, profound markers. There is a wealth of knowledge and experience that you can draw upon through personal life coaching sessions.
How Do You Choose A Life Coach?
1. Usually has a degree in psychology or business.
2. Should have proven success in business and life.
3. Should have a decade of adult life experience.
Ideally, a life coach is someone who has found success, peace and happiness in life, and is now ready to mentor you toward a successful, peaceful and happy life.

Choosing A Life Coach
One of the primary roles of a life coach is to help you transform your dreams into reality. A goal is sometimes defined as a dream with a plan. Dreams are good friends - the more you have the better - and once you add the action component, you are on your way to finding your bliss!
There are many types of coaches. Business coaches help owners grow their small, medium or multi-national businesses. Executive and Management coaches assist employees to negotiate the corporate environment and navigate their way toward satisfying positions. Career coaches help people choose their optimum job, work or career. Health coaches work in the area of eating lifestyle and exercise management.
Communication and Relationship coaches focus on the areas of language, influence, interpersonal dynamics, intimacy and connection. Spiritual coaches assist with personal development, paths to happiness, avenues to peace, and understanding All That Is.
When you are deciding to see a life coach, ask yourself the following questions:
What kind of life coach am I looking for?
What area of my life do I wish to improve?
Have I checked the life coach's qualifications?
What kind of relevant experience has the life coach?
Did I feel a good rapport when we spoke on the phone?
How many sessions will I need to spend with the life coach?

Creating Change In Your Life
The GROW model is useful for creating change in your life:
Goal Setting
Reality checking
Options
Way Forward
Goals: where do you want to be?
Using a large piece of paper or notebook write down the key areas of your life: career, money, health, family, social, love, etc. These are areas of life that you feel are important to you. Now, think about what you would like to experience, feel and see in these areas. Write it all down. Paint clear and detailed pictures of the final outcomes. Ask yourself this question: "How will I know that I have achieved this goal?"
Reality: where are you now?
Write down one or two goals to focus on. List what you have already done to move forward to these goals. What challenges have you overcome? What research have you done? Which experts have you spoken with? What have you achieved so far?
Options: how do you move from here to there?
Now it is time to brainstorm new, fresh, wild and crazy ideas. Day-dream, discuss with significant others, do some research, consult experts, take long walks. Keep the question in your mind, then watch what comes across your path over the next few days and weeks. List all the ideas that come up with no critique ... you can reality-check them at a later date!
Way Forward: what is your clear strategy?
Take your long list of ideas and reality-check them. Talk to significant others and experts. Shorten the list to feasible and workable ideas. Develop these into a concrete action plan: exactly what are you going to do to move forward? Have you broken the tasks into smaller tasks and action steps? Are there any time frames? Is there a budget? Who is supporting you emotionally? If you need additional support, then consult a life-coach.

Is Your Passion Your Profession?
Do you feel satisfied and fulfilled in your current job? Are you capitalising on your strengths and talents? Do you use your passion in your profession? Are you able to express the real You at work? Most people answer “no” to these questions!
The big question is: How can you do what you love, and make a good living from it? How can you turn your passion into a profession?
What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? What deserves your sense of humour, your ingenuity, your intelligence, your energy and your passion for half your waking life?
Often we lack direction because we did not have clear guidance in school; or we lacked knowledge of and exposure to the multitude of career opportunities. Perhaps we had an unsupportive or challenging home life or financial struggles. When our lives are not progressing as we would like, it is tempting to look back and blame many difficult life events and people.
George Elliot said: "It's never too late to become the person you might have been."
At some point you need to sit down and take stock of your life. You may be stuck in a comfort zone: perhaps you are not happy in your current career but you know how to do your job well, you enjoy the people you work with, and you have the security of your monthly salary.
How do you overcome the psychological and emotional challenges of a life that is just good enough? How do you move toward a life that is fulfilling, vibrant, stimulating and joyful?
The first thing is: you have to really want to make the change!
Anthony Robbins said: “It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.”
Many people are unclear about their strengths and talents, and unsure about their dreams; others are uncertain about how to turn their dreams into reality.
Life coaching is an excellent opportunity to explore your professional life, and obtain clarity about the directions you could be taking. You can do the following exercise by yourself or with a life coach:
Make a list of your beliefs and values – the things that are really important to you. Then write down the type of job or career that you believe would ideally match your values and beliefs. Once your destination is clear, it is just a matter of working out the concrete action steps to get you there.
Here are some questions to help you in this exercise:
What do you enjoy most in your current job?
What do you enjoy doing when you’re not at work?
Do you prefer working indoors or outdoors?
Do you prefer being left alone or being highly interactive?
Which position or person in your company do you admire?
Have you researched various positions, jobs or careers?
Have you spoken to other people to learn about various careers?
Have you looked in magazines, newspapers and online to learn about careers?
If money was not important, what would you do for a job?
If you died today, what would your regrets be?
Remember, if you find a job you love, you will never work again.

Have You Been Indoctrinated?
From birth to around eight years old, children are in an accelerated learning state (hypnogogic state). The conscious mind cannot cope with the amount of information learned during these early years, so the unconscious mind takes on this role. The young child’s brain operates in theta waves, putting the child in an almost trance-like state. This means they are highly suggestible and absorb everything going on around them.
What does this mean for you? You have aborbed without critical faculty and without discretion a multitude of thoughts, values and beliefs since early childhood. You are the product of your childhood programming - the socialisation from your parents, family, school, media, culture and religion. You have been indoctrinated!
Many studies show that our beliefs and values are set in place by the age of 15, with fifty percent of these set by 5 years old!. Who are You really? Every year the physical brain grows or ages ... yet the majority of us have adult brains running on child software!
This child software is the reason why we struggle in our relationships, why we run into problems in our careers and in our handling of real life. No one has taught us optimal values. No one has taught us the beliefs of excellence. No one has taught us the predictors of success!
A life coach who has plenty of life experience and proven success in business and life can help you explore optimal values and core drivers that lead you toward a life and lifestyle of peace, bliss and happiness. Invest wisely in your one precious mind.
