Why Personal Life Coaching

by Carrie Fleharty

Suppose you really want to make major improvements in your life, then a Personal Life Coach is a must. Or maybe you need as we say a helping hand to make minor improvements in your life, then a PLC (Personal Life Coach) would be a good person to find. The best kept secret of the world, and successful people everywhere are they understand the need to have someone lending a hand in their lives. The rich, and the not so rich people seek out a life coach, and shortly thereafter success will follow. The PLC works with you and most importantly will hold you accountable to your goals. As humans we have a tendency to slack off when we are not held accountable to anyone. The PLC will provide you with insights and strategies to your goals and improvements.

In order for coaching to work there are a few factors that must be present.
1) You are willing to grow.
2) A gap is present from where you are to where you want to be.
3) You are clear about how you want to grow.
4) You must be compatible with your coach.
Many programs provide that first session free for that very reason of compatability. The coach will be helping you solve problems, turn a business around, design and implement a new plan of action, and create a new life in which you would most like to live.

Coaching is a formal system or process that unlocks potential and maximizes performance, and will produce positive and lasting change in your life. A good coach will ignite your own personal power and potential. They are the ones who can facilitate critical new insights, enabling you to set targeted measureable goals and take deliberate action. If you are not sure of where you want to go, then a coach will help you break through our chaotic brain, and help you find your path that best suits you and your goals. Your dreams are yours and if you want to fulfill them, then there is no better reason to hire a PLC.

Something that you really need to remember is this: Coaching is Not Counseling! A good coach will focus on WHAT, WHEN and HOW! Counseling looks at your past, and figures out the WHY! Think of it this way; a good coach will move you forward, and always forward. Yes, a good coach will listen, but the direction for you is always forward motion. The obstacles are there, but you are continually moving toward your goals and dreams. Your life can be extraordinary.

This all sounds good. One problem facing you is how to find coaches in your area. Most of the PLC's have websites so that you can check them out. Look for links to other coaching sites, and coaching organizations that they belong to when visiting their website. Most importantly look for first person accounts. If you are still not sure. Email them and see if they respond. Email is easily done, and should be a benefit to both parties. The answers to your emails will tell you something about that PLC.

With your PLC along beside you either by phone, email, Internet or by person, you will begin to have a truly extraordinary life.
The possibilities are endless:
* Make Money
* Make a Career Change
* Become Successful
* Push Through Your Fears
* Solve Problems and Challenges
* Get Really Clear on What You Want
* Reduce Stress
* Improve Communication
* Gain Self Confidence
* Design a Life
* Stay Focused
* Develop Strategies
* Dream Big

The session lengths usually are 6 sessions (or 6 weeks) plus an additional first conference free session. You may receive assignments, or suggest actions to take that will most effectively move you closer to your goals or dreams. The discovery of yourself is a natural process, and don't be surprised if you learn something new about yourself. Be willing to stretch your limitations, and try new and fresh approaches. This will help you in reaching your goals, and live an integrated and fulfilled personal and professional life using the gifts you already have.

The Secret in life is this: What you want and desire can be yours easily and accessible. All you have to do is to decide what you want, believe that you can achieve it and focus on already having that want or desire. But, most of us get lost in our own chaotic lives that we forget our desires, nor do we understand how to get there. A Personal Life Coach can help with your desires, your focus, and bring you into harmony.
