Is Coaching expensive?
Coaching is a marvellous opportunity for you to explore what it is you really want out of life. Then set goals and actions to transform the life you live now into the life that you want. Being who you want to be, doing the things you want to do, having the things you want to have. Most people would consider this priceless!I haven't got the time to be coached.
Not really a question I know, but it is the number one perceived barrier to people that are considering getting a coach. In fact coaching is the one thing that can help really busy people. Ok there will be coaching sessions - but that's one hour every two weeks or 0.3% of your time. At this session you will discuss and work on 'your' goals and 'your' priorities and the actions that you need to take to move towards 'your' dream.The reason why people get busy and don't have time for the things that they want is because they get busy working on things that don't contribute towards their own aspirations. Mainly because they don't know what their own aspirations are or they haven't written them down and committed to them.
Why did the chicken cross the road?
Or more elegantly put - What was it that motivated the chicken to take the first step towards the life she wanted?The chicken knew what she wanted. Her number one, top of the list item was to get across town to where the corn was plump and juicy, meet the finest Cockerel in the land and bring up the fluffiest cutest chicks around. Something was holding her back, that first step, getting across the road.
"What is it that stops you from attempting that first step?" asked the Coach
"Well all my Flat mates have tried it and look what happened to them. I just don't want to end up that way"
"What are the alternatives then? What are the different ways of crossing the road?"
"I never really thought of it, er, but I suppose there is the footbridge and the subway"
"What else?"
"er I could wait until the road is quiet, if there is ever such a time or wait a minute I have heard that way off down the road there is a Pelican Crossing I suppose that could be useful though it is a long way off in the wrong direction"
"Wow, that's a good list of options" commented the coach "now look at them in more detail and pick one that we can move forward on"
"Well steps aren't a chicken thing really so that counts out the footbridge, same for the subway plus I've seen what happens to chickens in Subways. Hang on... Pelicans, yes Pelicans they're like chickens aren't they, just considerably bigger beaks that's all. Pelican Crossing that's it that's the way to cross the road"
Together with her coach the chicken identified the actions that she would take to find out how to use the crossing, where it was and the revised route to her dream. Taking the actions she had agreed took her that vital one step towards her dream, crossing the road.
