How does life coaching work?

Can you hit a target you do not have? Exactly! So first it’s important to accurately define where you want to make change. I know it can be a scary question but if you could imagine your perfect life, what would it look like? What is it that you truly want?  For many of us, the scarier question is how will change it affect your life? 

Our goals versus pleasure

As humans we naturally choose comfort, what feels good, and what we like. I don’t mean content. I mean the type of good from sitting down and eating half a gallon of your favorite ice cream. We want pleasure without discipline and to feel only reward. So many of us go along in life trying to figure out how to eat that half gallon of ice cream, not have a stomach ache after and still fit into our favorite jeans. In many cases we don’t  succeed, we eat, we get the stomach ache and Saturday night leaves us wearing our least favorite pants and feeling like we failed. 

The answer is you find ways to modify your behavior to align them to your goals. It doesn’t sound fun, but it is rewarding. Eating a cup of ice cream and savoring each mouthful is what life is about. 

Who we think we are

From the day we are born, we start to develop ideas and messages as well as thoughts and feelings associated with areas of our life. Many of these ideas, when really looked at, aren’t ours. They are our parents, or even our grandparents. They are the things we heard and what we were told about ourselves. These beliefs we hold affect how we think about money, business, and love. We will explore your experiences and beliefs to get to the root of what is stopping you from achieving success. 

Fear 

Heavy, right? No one wants to admit they are afraid, but I can honestly say we are all afraid of something. Do you remember when you were a little kid and afraid of the shadow in the corner of your bedroom? That shadow would grow and grow and the quiet of the room did not help. You would close your eyes and in many cases feel paralyzed.  Then your mom or dad might come in after you yelled out their name and boom! Nothing. I am not saying that fear is not valid. I am saying fear and how we respond to it is the number one thing stopping us from achieving a beautiful life.
