Why Life Coaching and why now?
Have you noticed Life Coaching being talked about more and more? Why are people turning to Life Coaches in increasing numbers and why should YOU?
You have a busy life with so many things to juggle and so many possibilities. This is not easy! There are increasingly powerful influences around you every day, some distracting you from doing what's BEST for you.
Discovering what is the RIGHT thing for you to do is therefore sometimes difficult. Sticking to this path of 'what's right' so to speak can be pretty tough. It's something that demands our constant attention , or we basically... stray.
Ever thought about your life in this way before I wonder? Let's just spend a few minutes looking a little deeper at this, I think you'll find it revealing...
In Western societies we feel we have a certain quality of life... roof over our heads ... food in our fridges ... easy access to education and healthcare... and material items...
so why are so many people unhappy with their lot... ?
"75% of people were happy with their lives 50 years ago" - UK 1957
"Less than 50% are happy with their lives now" -UK 2005
Over 60% of people are unhappy with their job
30 - 40% of Marriages fail
Peer pressure for material things, what looks good, or some quick fix to make us feel temporarily good are in abundance.
Designer labels, Big Brother, Film Stars' lives, Newspaper stories, footballer's off-field antics...how much have these become part of our mainstream culture now.
These used to be an aside and now to many people are actually a main part of 'their lives'. Is it any wonder if we don't focus on what's real and valuable to us as individuals we are
not going to be fulfilled? As a culture we seem to continually blind ourselves to the long term affects of 'quick fixes' concentrating on what we want to enjoy today.
The problem is that real long term happiness depends on not simply today's fashion but on something quite different...
So what's the answer? For a start , each day do a small thing to work toward YOUR goals not someone else's, and so giving up a few (not necessarily all) of the quick fixes.
In essence this can be the difference between being truly successful in life or just working in a fitful way toward no real goal and wondering why others have it and 'you' don't.
Do you want to be counted amongst them?
The key to YOUR successful life, relationship, career, and the wider world is within you... and so is your true long term happiness.
This KEY is to look at what values really drive you and which ones serve you best to unlock the life you truly deserve.
You are the untapped resource and are the FOCUS of the Life Coaching process which is a structured approach to get you back on track...
and to stay there!
Here's a question for you. Do you know what your distractions are?
Coaching ourselves a better future:
I foresee a time in the not so distant future when all of us no matter what walk of life will be brought up
with a far greater idea about Natural Coaching and our own individual talents and personality.
Where an emphasis on innate passions
and values are the focus of our lives and the basis of teaching.
I want to promote a culture of Nurturing through enhanced communication. At present we are more
'taught at' in schools using a 'one-size fits all' blanket prescription or general approach to education and life
...The only problem is 'one size' rarely fits anyone properly.
I wonder what it would have meant for you to have been educated in that way... ? What would be different about you, about your life? Do you know?
This is the only way we can truly develop ourselves and work in an efficient and functioning society
where we all prosper, because believe it or not we ALL really do have something valuable to offer
Our experiences and talents are each different that's why the process of Coaching is often such a revelation to
people, designed to use what's special inside you, not to dumb it down.
As human beings we still have so much to learn about getting the most out of ourselves and creating lives and a planet that gives us ALL value... and values us all.
The clock is ticking and some say the planet is on the brink NOW.
Man's desire for quick fixes have put the planet in jeopardy... and only now in the last 20 years have we seriously thought about this... and are still only slowly acting to correct this for the planets long term health.
So it's not simply on a personal level where you change, everything you do affects the world at large... especially now with the complex web on influences such as through globalisation spreading across the planet...
When a person changes they really will affect those they interact with even if they don't necessarily see it.
The world is becoming more complex, seemingly smaller and with everything more interdependent. Communications, food consumption, climate change, we are each affecting each other to a greater extent every day.
So it's not simply on a personal level where you change.
It's not hype to say that EACH person, YOU who read this now can make a real difference and your chances of doing this are now better than ever.
I have stood in a room full of people who have each shouted out;
'WHAT CAN I DO?' and the collective noise was deafening...
It is for no small reason that GANDI said 'We must each be the change we want to see in the world'
Whether you decide now or later that you feel the time is right to make those changes, is up to you. But you know what happens to the things you chose to do tomorrow...
We must motivate each other to make positive changes that we want to see in our lives today...
So are you any clearer..about what is YOUR compass in this Foggy World?
... it's knowing what will make you truly happy in the long term and doing it...
My GOAL in telling you this is not simply to coach you...
My personal GOAL is to SHARE the HUGE benefits of Performance Coaching and bring them into your life... so that you may in turn share them... then one by one... little by little we can make great things happen.
Way of the Western world: Why Coaching is becoming so valuable.
"If you better understood your own passions and values and start to build goals towards honouring these then you lead a more fulfilling authentic life, one that is less open to the manipulations of others with things that aren't right for you that others may seek to distract you with for their own purposes...
This gives YOU the individual the power and self-confidence to be true to yourself...
Philosophers have long said 'Know thyself'... .as being the key to life...
Now Big business is spending millions each year on coaching...
WHY? Are they looking to become one with the cosmos..? I think not.
They have seen the benefits of Coaching on their bottom line and is proven to help business and it WILL help you in your life.
My Coaching is a WHOLLY practical process to get the best out of your life...
If this speaks to you... sounds like something you want for yourself...
