Life Coaching - What is it?

This Inspirational and Motivational Article is Brought To You By - Georgina Kirk

If a genie gave you three wishes and created a new life for you, is this what it would be like? If you are not living that life, it's high time you were! A life coach can help you to discover the genie inside you and make your dreams come true.

A life coach will not make your decisions for you. What he/she will do is make you aware of the abundance of options in front of you, motivate you to make the desired changes in your life and support you in your journey from where you are now to where you want to be.

Life coaching generally takes the form of regular, one-to-one sessions of an hour or so, either face to face or over the telephone. The coach will help you to focus your goals and to devise small steps towards meeting them. The coach will also hold you accountable for your progress.

Many people think a life coach is a form of psychotherapist or counsellor. While there is some cross-over, counselling and psychotherapy are more about emotional healing, whereas life coaching is more about achieving results through thinking and behaving differently. Your life coach will not often discuss with you how you feel; the focus is on what you do. However, an important part of your coach's job is to challenge beliefs you may have held since childhood that are stopping you as an adult from enjoying life to the full.

Has it always been your ambition to be your own boss/explore the world/have a flat in New York? Do you want to go (back) to university/throw fantastic dinner parties/learn salsa dancing? If so, what has stopped you from doing it? With a life coach to help you, you can overcome your fears, gain confidence and live the life of your dreams.

Life coaching is not for everybody. If you have been through trauma, either as an adult or as a child, life coaching will probably not be useful to you until you have been able to resolve your issues with a psychotherapist. However, if your problems are more mainstream - feeling unable to get organised, having lost sight of your priorities, always feeling you "should" do things rather than choosing to do them, then life coaching can be enormously valuable to you.

With the support of your coach, you can make radical changes to every aspect of your life or you can choose to focus on a specific area. For example, you can concentrate on landing your ideal job, on enhancing the job you've got, on gearing up to start a new career/a new life abroad/a new life as a parent, or on getting the most out of your social and cultural life. A life coach will help you with any of these - it's completely up to you.

It's not difficult to find yourself a life coach by searching the internet. It doesn't matter if there isn't one in your area, because you can always have your coaching on the telephone. Most coaches will offer a free introductory consultation, during which you can decide whether life coaching is for you and whether you like this coach's style. So you've got nothing to lose - what are you waiting for?
