Enthusing!
Coaching is based on the the pinciples that as a coach I believe in and trust the clients, their feelings, they are the experts on their lifes, and cosequently they are the best ones to know what is, or not, best for them. Who could better judge how to move on? It is the client, also, who decides to change.
By changing you admit you are not in the place you want to be and in order to arrive to that point in which your dream becomes a reality you (me) need to make some changes.
If someone was to asks us to change we will probably be relactunt to do so. It is when the need comes from whithin that it is really effective.
Once that internal decision, realization, has become clear and we have put in place the changes needed is when enthusing comes into play. To get excited about what you are about to achive. To be involved and commited to achieving your goal and do it with enthusiasm whith pasion with believe. To see, feel, taste the results even before they are there.
Reading this, it comes to mind the “visualization” proccess that is regularly used by elite sportsmen/women. An effective technique that consist in imagining the situation with the desired outcome until we believe it and potrait that into our reality, making it happen through the seer believe and complete devotion. Of course you still have to train, prepare and put structures in place …… in body building when the time comes to give your body and muscles a rest, visualization is used to keep the tone and definition achieved at the gym. This is not an easy process and it requires a lot of mental trainning but the results are there and they are tangible.
It is also true, that perhaps through enthusing a client could make and execute a decision that backfires him/her, leaving the client angry or disapointed with his/her coach.
It is my believe that people do not do things wrong consciently, in most cases is the way we have been tought, the way we know, or the way we thought it was best. If we find that we have made a mistake the one thing we can do is to admit the error and learn from it and find a way out, a solution, a lesson to be learned. Let´s look at the positive that we can get out of the situation by acknowledging that we have learned an important lesson, that we do know now something we didn´t before, etc.
As a person that has made an error, I would like to react, in the same way I expect someone else to behave in the case the error was made with me, and not by me: I will put my hand up, admit where I went wrong and find the positive, the solution, the lesson. If anything the client will be certain I will never make the same mistake again.
I am passionate, enthusiastic and I don´t do things by half. I am commited 100% in what I do and sometimes whithout knowing I make mistakes. I like to learn from them and no make them again. I know my enthusiams is sometimes infectious and that will work great with some clients and not so well with others. Is in a trial session where we will discover the affinity and the possibilities of working together, enthusiastically and with fewer mistakes to make your dream your way of life.
