Kim Palmer, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Star Tribune, 5/26/98 "Got a nagging feeling that your life could be more fulfilling? Want to change a direction but aren't sure how to do it? Here's how to jumpstart your new life today...

| Here are some of the reasons why a person hires a coach... 1. To set better goals. The right goal that reflect your true values - is a joy to reach. The wrong goals perhaps based on whims, advertising or instant gratification - takes needless effort and oftentimes comes at a high cost to you. Coaches help people discover what they REALLY want, using the client's own values, needs and visions as personal reference points. 2. To reach their goals faster. A coach provides a consistent structure of support and offers innovative strategies and approaches to help clients reach their goals in record time. 3. To make significant changes. A coach is uniquely trained to help you make both fundamental and permanent changes in areas of your career, relationships, business and quality of life. 4. To make better decisions. As life speeds up and becomes a smorgasboard, we are presented with far more choices than ever. The coach can help you learn how to make the best decisions for you, regardless of the cisrcumstances and even in the most confusing of situations. 5. To have someone to collaborate with. When you have someone ideas around with, someone who understands the creative process, someone who expands your thinking, what you end up with is synergy. 6. To improve their relationships and family. Your coach can help you improve your communication and relating skills and attract the best people to you. 7. To reduce stress and tolerations. A coach helps to clarify and reduce personal stress levels, benefitting mind, body and spirit. From: Becoming A Coach Coaching.Com Approach |
