What is Life Coaching?

Life Coaching is a new and rapidly growing profession that is profoundly different from consulting, mentoring, advice, therapy, or counseling. The coaching process is not a previously determined answer or approach, but addresses specific personal projects, business successes, general conditions and transitions in a person's personal life, relationships or profession by examining what is going on right now, discovering what obstacles or challenges might exist, and choosing a course of action to show the indvidual how their life can be what they want it to be.

What Is the Need for Life Coaching?

Through the centuries, knowledgeable and successful people have understood what it takes to become successful and achieve the results desired. They have all understood that the ability is imbedded within people to succeed; that each person has the inner answers to their questions, the inner force to drive them to success. All that was needed was for an individual to understand the process to unleash that inner ability. Anciently, people who desired to succeed traveled many miles to learn at the feet of such a learning or life coach. It was Soocrates who, after holding an inquiring student's head under water until near drowing said, "When you desire to learn as much as you desired to breath, come back and I will teach you."

How Does Life Coaching Work?

Life coaching helps a person overcome road blocks in their career, or in their personal lives that keep them from achieving the success and accomplishment they desire. It is obvioiusly far easier for a uninvolved, trained coach to see needs that an individual overlooks. The concept works much like a sport coach who takes raw talent in a football, baseball, or basketball player and shows the athlete how to bring out that talent and capitlize on the inner abilities the individual already possesses.

The Life Coaching Process

CoachTelephone• Free Introductory 15-Minute Session
• 60 minute initial session: "Design the Partnership"
• One 30- or 45-minute phone call per week
• Email support
• Occasional brief check-in calls
• First Session Completion Money Back Guarantee

Life Coaching is a designed union between coach and client where the coaching relationship continually gives all the power back to the client. Life Coaching is based on the belief that the client knows the answers to every question or challenge the client may have, even if those answers appear to be obscured, concealed or hidden inside.

The Value of Life Coaching

Life coaching skills are about knowing the right questions to ask and having the right tools and techniques to empower the client find those answers within themselves. After all, a person is the only expert in their entire life who truly knows who they are and what they need. They are the only expert who can recognize what is absolutely best for them. Life Coaching merely helps this understanding along during the coaching process. Your Life Coach helps you discover what your own personal "best" might be.

Problems

Every day we make choices to do or not do many things. These choices may range from profound to trivial and each one has an effect that makes our lives more fulfilling or less fulfilling, more balanced or less balanced, more successful or less successful, that make our process of living more effective or less effective. Life coaching helps the client learn how to make choices that create an effective, balanced and fulfilling life. In most cases, solutions to problems are not the biggest problem a person faces. Quite often, the solution is well understood—but it is the willingness to act that causes failure or prolongs problems. Knowing when to act and how to act and having the desire to act is what Life Coaching is all about. We help you connect your head and your heart in a way that transforms your passion for your dreams into action for your life.

What you can expect to pay for life coaching in general and with Centab Mentoring Services

Athletes have been using sports coaches and personal trainers for years to greatly improve their performance. Michael Jordan had a "shooting" coach (among the other 5 coaches he used) to win 6 championship rings and untold MVP awards. Tiger Woods used a "swing" coach before he won the four consecutive major golf tournaments. Charles Kettering, w ho worked hius way up through General Motores to CEO, and held over 300 patents, had a time management coach. Of course they were good, but they became great because of individual coaching.

The life coaching process is not limited to athletics, personal training or CEOs. The life coaching process will assist anyone to achieve a vast array of goals in the personal, business, work, and family areas of their life.

What is life coaching?

The life coaching process is the only human improvement process that focuses completely on the individual! Life coaches are equal partners who assist an individual to improve and grow as a person as the means to achieve their goals. Life coaches assist a person to become the World's Leading Expert on themself! Coaches also assist in executing the actions necessary to achieve objectives and goals. The individual has virtual control over the results they achieve through coaching, because they set the coaching goals, and the coaching process assures that they will achieve them.

Why hire a life coach?

People hire a coach to achieve their personal, spiritual, family and business Coachable Goals, much more effectively, more efficiently, more completely, with more fun, and in less time than any other human improvement process. Life coaches assist an individual to: overcome obstacles and fears, focus on solutions, have someone to bounce ideas off, no matter how silly they may seem, discover truths about themself, and how they can improve, accomplish more than they ever thought possible, and achieve balance in their personal, work and family lives. The Life Coach will show an individual how to discover their own inner abilities, to become the person they always wanted to be and were capable of becoming.

How does life coaching work?

Typically a person interacts with a coach over the phone. The person and their coach develop an ongoing partnership, based upon trust. The coach focuses the person's full energy and attention on their achieving their goals. The coach will become the totally objective, nonjudgmental, supportive mirror into whom the person really is and what he or she really wants to do. The coach will provide life options, new perspectives, encouragement, and concentrated attention to give the person insight into their abilites and needs, and confidence to take life-improving actions towards their goals. The coach assists the individual to identify their self-imposed obstacles and further assist them to overcome these obstacles and to reach their goals.
