Do you really need a coach?
By Joseph Scott of The Coaching Room
The 'why work with a coach?' question is most often (in my view) driven by the frame of reference of 'what can a coach do that I can’t do by myself?'.
Well, my view is this, if you can be and do the following 7 things with and by yourself, you don't need a coach.
However, if you cannot do all of the following, and you want to ‘be or do’ things differently, be better, move to a higher place or move faster etc. Then I suggest you get yourself a coach. Take a look!
The 7 things a coach can facilitate that you my not currently be able to do, be or see. Can you:
1. Hear and detect your own limiting beliefs? These are the beliefs that hold you back from achieving your potential. Can you hear and understand the distortions in your own self talk that leash you to your current reality?
2. See and understand your own (self-reflexive) consciousness as you create (positive and) toxic frames of mind from which you deal with reality? Can you master them so that you can self-author your own life story, over the one you’ve inherited from others?
3. Apply actual change to your life that is systemic and lasting?
4. Hold yourself fully accountable to empirical benchmarks of performance and development?
5. Engage yourself in actualising your own development, across recognised psychological aspects of self, to live and operate at better states and stages of being?
6. Perform your meanings and mean your performances, as you realise and release your innate propulsion (motivation) system toward achieving your fullest potentials?
7. Ask yourself a range of simple questions that allow you to live beyond scarcity & deficiency, into a place of giving and abundance?
If you can say yes to the above, YOU DON’T NEED A COACH.
If you cannot say yes to all the above, and self development, transformation and performance both personally and professionally are important to you and you intend this… Then my advice is to GET A COACH!.
If you already have a coach and with your coach, you are not experiencing the above, GET A DIFFERENT COACH.
