7 Reasons to Hire a Life Coach
You're probably reading this article because you'd like to determine what a life coach can do for you.
Here you'll find 7 reasons to hire a life coach.
Let's get started: 1.
Accountability.
This is a biggie.
I've coached lots of folks, and by and large, one of the biggest factors in success is being held accountable.
I can already hear your protests: "I know how to be accountable, I'm accountable to myself.
" While that may work with smaller goals, self accountability probably won't work for big goals.
Why? Simply because if you're going for something bigger than you've ever achieved before, fear and resistance are certain to arise, in a variety of forms and fashions.
Accountability from a trusted and respected source will help keep you on track in moving through the fear and resistance that will show up.
2.
Guidance.
You don't know what you don't know.
Nuff said.
3.
Real world strategies that work (rather than pat textbook answers).
An experienced coach knows what works, when and with whom.
Only experience can provide this kind of effective insight, so always look for a professional who's coached at least 25-50 folks successfully.
4.
Another valuable perspective (which can add clarity).
This one is golden.
When you've been looking at the same situation for a period of time, you may lose objectivity and your ability to see the situation clearly.
A coach can offer you alternate ways of looking at the same situation, bringing added clarity to the many options that may be available to you.
5.
Swifter attainment of goals.
It's always better to take the most direct path to what you want, saving you time, energy and money.
I am a coach, and I've hired several coaches in areas of my life where I want to get on a proven path that leads to success in the most direct manner.
For example, I've hired a coach who's successfully made lots of money from blogging, because that's the path I wanted to take as well.
He has a mentoring program.
It's easier and cheaper for me to hire him as my coach, since he's already demonstrated success, and since he's also demonstrated his ability to coach others to success.
It's saving me an enormous amount of effort, time and money.
6.
Self-discovery.
You may not know yourself as well as you'd like to believe, none of us do.
Working with an experienced, trained coach and having powerful conversations with that coach leads to deeper awareness of what you do and why you do it.
Self-discovery and self mastery are keys to high success.
Yet, you cannot master yourself until you know yourself.
There are reasons why you don't have the level of success you want.
Most, if not all, of those reasons are internal.
Wouldn't you like to know what's blocking you? 7.
Responsibility.
An effective life coach will steer you clear of blaming anyone for anything.
It's not your partner's fault, or your kids' fault, or your dog's fault.
Blame keeps you out of full responsibility, takes you away from your goals and lessens your power.
Why would you want to do that? Taking full responsibility for EVERYTHING in your life ain't easy, but it's always worth it.
So there you have it, 7 short and sweet reasons to hire a life coach.
There are at least a dozen more, but this is a good starting point if you're asking the question.
As a destiny life coach (I support folks in creating a destiny they love), I believe everyone should have a coach, at certain junctures, and especially when going for big goals that have never been achieved before.
A prospective client recently asked me if I had a coach.
I answered that I have several coaches, in different areas of my life.
She seemed happy to hear my response.
I practice what I preach.
I believe in coaching, and have had the blessing of witnessing the powerful results it's had on my clients.
Now it's your turn to step up to the high success you desire and deserve.
