“Some really interesting personal lifelong ambitions have been raised by a couple of the people in the group this week. And once again I am reminded of what a privilege it is to be a catalyst in their journey. If you are even remotely interested in coaching I urge you not to hesitate. Do whatever it takes. And commit to someone else’s success. It is amazing. “
This from Diary Of A Coach this week.

Our coach at Diary Of A Coach writes:
“One of my past keys to success has been to really connect someone with why what they have chosen to work on is important to them. Typically these sorts of people want to get straight in to action. No problem at all with that since coaching is about taking action. However if one is disconnected from what they are doing and why they are doing it, it is very easy to get distracted, lose heart or give up.
So spending a little time early on getting clarity around the real drivers behind a desired goal or outcome is a worthwhile investment. The vision has to become bigger than the challenges one may face on the way. Connecting someone emotionally to their goals is vital because as a coach you can keep re-connecting them with this in times of hardship, boredom or self doubt.”
