What Is Coaching ?
Recently, I received several e-mails asking about training and what is exactly. So I decided to answer some of those questions in this article. First of all, let me start with what the training is not. Coaching is not therapy or counseling. Therapy tends to focus on the past, while coaching is often more oriented towards the future. Additionally, coaches are not paid friends.
Certainly you have friends who are willing to give advice. Friends tend to be cautious in saying that what they really think and do not want to hurt her feelings. Coaches have to be accountable for the goals and a plan of action to achieve those goals. So what is coaching? For years executives and athletes have coaches to help them achieve peak performance. Now, other people are seeing the benefits of having a coach.
Coaches are a listening ear, listening to their goals and dreams. Coaches help you put those dreams into action. Will Coaches are finding the action-oriented and want to help their clients achieve their goals. Coaches also have to be accountable for the steps you plan to take. Christian Coaches will focus in particular from a godly perspective. Where is God leading you now? Why would someone hire a coach? People hire coaches for many different reasons. Some people need help with time management. Others want to find a better balance in their lives. Some may be looking for a career change and want to investigate alternatives. Some people may say, “I’m not enjoying my life and I want to have more fun, how I can make better use of my time?” Others may want spiritual guidance in your particular situation. The reasons for hire are as varied as the individual. What should you look for in a coach? Most coaches offer an initial session free phone. You to see if the coach understands you and really listen to what they have to say. Is the coach asked what their goals or not the coach to set goals for yourself? Remember this is about you and your schedule, not the coach of the program. Often, you can say in one phone session if the coach is a good choice for you. Most training sessions occur over the phone. Therefore, his coach could be thousands of miles away or in your city. Location does not really matter. Some coaches also doing full training over the Internet. When making an appointment with a trainer, make sure you have a list of questions you would like to have answered.
