Are you ready to work with a personal business coach? Or, another way to say this is, are you going to be receptive to self-improvement business coaching?
Over many years of coaching I have observed that those who do well with my style of personal development business coaching, have a good personal foundation. They have many things working for them. They are now at a point where they want to take it to their business and life to the next level.
What is the next level, you ask? It is a good question. There are hundreds of paths to self-improvement and they all lead to the same place. So, it really doesn’t matter which path you take. What matters is that you take a path and commit to it. That’s where I come in to support others in going on their chosen pathway.
I am not here to fix anyone. I am not here to help anyone. Yet, I am here to give others my unconditional support. A fix it mentality in coaching or the “I am here to help” offering, for me, is starting from a negative. The implication is that something is wrong. The truth is there is something wrong, or that can be improved in all of us. That includes myself.
To me, the best path for self-improvement business coaching has four key elements.
Unconditional support
Accountability for the things the client wants to be held accountable for
Collaboration: This is not about me and you. It is about us.
Co-creation of pathways to accelerate the process of the client’s successful
performance.
Now that I have listed the components for successful self-improvement business coaching I want to get back to the original question, “What is the next level?”
The next level for virtually everyone is greater peace of mind and happiness. You may say, and rightly so, this doesn’t make sense. Don’t most people want more success in their businesses and lives financially? Yes, in a sense. No one has ever hired me and said, “I want to earn less money and have a diminished lifestyle? All of them would like to earn more, sometimes it is very little, sometimes it is a great deal more. Yet, the one thing they almost always agree on is that they want a better lifestyle.
And a better lifestyle, which comprises your business and personal life comes from understanding who you are and what can bring you greater peace and happiness. Very often, when we focus on what the ultimate goal is, greater peace and happiness, we end up doing things that improve our lives and lifestyle significantly in other areas.
Ultimately, if you are looking for a better lifestyle and identifying steps to accelerate the process of your successful performance, you are a good candidate for collaborating with a personal business coach.
Self improvement and the opportunity for personal development came at me head on in the early 1980’s. I was
educated with two degrees, yet I wasn’t able to handle it. Why? I was not ready mentally, and more importantly,
emotionally. I didn’t understand that the true joys of life come with a drive to self education, a focus on Self improvement.
