When I first chose to complete a Life Coaching course it was as an easy option that would earn me a bit of money while continuing with my 'real' study. How wrong I was to think that all Life Coaching entailed was to tell other what to do with their lives!
Life Coaching is like being a personal trainer where you assist your client to create the life they want through their own hard work. A Life Coach helps get your thinking into shape, making it more positive, enabling you to cope with whatever life brings you. Life Coaching aims to move you forward to a point where you are confident and happy to 'go it alone'. It is not intended as a never ending appointment which leaves you with a never ending expense.
A Life Coach is someone who helps you to achieve all those goals and dreams you have. They specialize in bringing out the power and skills already inside you so that you are more focused and proactive. Through good questioning and SMART goal setting clients can achieve the life they dreamed of or at least move a bit further towards it.
I've only just started to try out all the techniques and skills I have learnt through having a few free clients. It is a very empowering process which I am enjoying practicing on myself too. It isn't always as easy as it seems and then again it isn't half as hard as having no direction or goal at all.
