Why should you work with a coach? 5 reasons.
It’s a new year, which can only mean one thing: a new you. This is the notion that people all over the world toll with every year. And with every passing year, people yearn for a better version of themselves, either physically, spiritually or emotionally. But wouldn’t it be nice if you didn’t have to go it alone? Some goals are scary enough, either because we are afraid to set them or we simply don’t know where to start.
When planning big life goals, it helps if there’s someone pushing you and working with you to set milestones and helping you reach them. This is why 2016 might just be the year you start considering hiring a coach to help you achieve more, and thus, be more than you ever thought possible. There’s a reason why all the best athletes have coaches next to them. Can you imagine what their performance would be like if they didn’t have the support and guidance of a coach? Yeah, me either.
Here are my top five reasons why you need a coach in your life:
Before you can get anything done, you need to start planning. A coach can help you build a structure that organizes all your yearly plans and goals. They do this by first providing you with an empathetic and nonjudgmental ear – which we can sometimes take for granted. They can then help you translate all of those goals into solid plans of action, with steps.
A coach will motivate you to be the best version of yourself. They will do this by keeping you on track and reminding you of your goals every day. There’s no room for distraction or giving up when you have a coach by your side. As soon as you start to stumble off track, your coach is right there to pick you back up and keep you moving forward.
Motivating you is one thing, but that only works if you’re consistently being encouraged throughout the process. Encouragement is a powerful tool that is motivation’s best friend. The real magic starts to happen when the two are put together. Your coach becomes your right hand, your confidant and your friend. They push you when you want to quit and won’t stop encouraging you until you’ve reached your goal.
A coach will help you focus and define a clear vision for the goals you are trying to reach. Sometimes articulating your goals can be challenging, which is why a coach can be effective. They will take your unclear goals and turn them into a workable plan that you can stick to and achieve. Pure gold.
And finally, a coach will be there to celebrate your achievements. No matter how big or small, your coach is there to help you celebrate even the smallest milestones – because everything counts. They will help you recognize and appreciate your periods of growth and learning and remind you that Rome wasn’t built in a day, so you deserve to celebrate all victories.
So there you have it. The new year is a time for change, because who wants to stay the same and not grow? Just remember that you don’t have to go through these scary changes alone. We are here for you.
