Simple questions to clarify choices
As a Transformational Coach for Men, I often hear the question – “Why is what I am doing not working?” My clients are so close to their logic of why what they are doing SHOULD work – they do not have the perspective to consider new choices that may lead toward achieving their goal.
This is where coaching can help. Coaching brings perspective to determining the how and what may have been overlooked during the decision process.
Here are 4 simple questions that can illuminate new choices:
1. Given what you are choosing to do now is NOT achieving your goal – what have you learned is NOT working?
2. Now that you are aware of why that choice is not working – what can you do to create new ones that reflect this awareness?
3. Once you have created these new choices, how will you KNOW they will enable you to move toward your goal?
4. What is the first step towards implementation?
The simple fact is – having a coach that is invested in your success can infuse energy into any problem solving process. A coach gives unconditional support, shares the belief that YOU know the answer, and are able to achieve anything you desire, challenges your perspective, and guides you to dig deep to determine choices that achieve your goals!
What is keeping you from achieving your goals and considering how a coach might empower them?
