Coaching is NOT the solution to all problems.
However, in your life there are 3 situations when you SHOULD hire a coach.
A Coach will help you get from where you are (let’s call that Point A) to where you want to be (let’s call that Point B).
Situation 1:
- You know where you are (Point A) and you don’t like it. BUT you don’t know what you want instead and need help figuring out your Point B. A Coach will help you figure out what your Point B(s) could be.
- An example of this could be you hate your job but you don’t know what you could do instead.
Situation 2:
- You know both your Point A and Point B but don’t know how to get there. A coach will help you build a sustainable and actionable path to get you to Point B.
- An example can be that you want a better leader for your team but don’t know-how.
Situation 3:
- You know your Point A and Point B but some obstacles get in the way. These could be issues like fear, lack of confidence, self-doubt, procrastination and maybe just a very busy schedule. A coach will help you build accountability to your goals and create a mitigation plan for the things that get in the way.
So if you are unsure of what you want, need help creating your path to success or need help getting out of your way to success it is a good time to hire a coach.
