Before I got into coaching professionally, people loved coming to me to help them with interpersonal conflicts and business brainstorming but then that all changed when I hung my “open for business” sign on the door.
A number of interesting things happened…
- People didn’t value the service for money. Let me tell you a secret: anything someone thinks/says they can do themselves (even if they don’t do it) holds NO value! Here’s another secret EVERYONE can do EVERYTHING.
- All of a sudden people were taking some control of their life, essentially saying “I don’t really need any help”. That is wonderful and I’m happy to be that catalyst but an overnight success of *anything* is rare and having on-going support is really helpful. Anyway a can-do attitude is what’s required manifest success in *any* coaching session.
- The work seemed too much. Working on self and being accountable to someone else is scary.
- Suddenly they are experts on the topic.
Let me tell you some things… there is no shame in NOT knowing everything, receiving help is a sign of strength, reciprocation in effort is required to have a successful life after one frought with challenges, and knowledge is your ticket out of the darkness.
Now, this link is a bit outdated. No one put the effort in and I decided to move on to something more profitable that fulfilled my mission as well — we ALL need to make a living and God wills me to make a living through helping others. The method just happens to be Psychic Tarot reading (at the moment) but I do slip in *coaching* methodology into readings because I’m aware of the *power* of this tool even if others are not.
If you think you can benefit from this coaching blog, please sign up and participate and I will put some effort into it again. *grin*
Either way, I will put effort into again when I’m inspired to. Do you want to be my inspiration?
