Ten Top Benefits Recieved By My Coaching Clients

The benefits recieved from hiring a Life Coach all start with YOU! Because, if YOU are willing, I believe that YOU CAN;

- reach your highest potential

- make choices that work for you

- thrive in relationships that nurture you

- live your life around your value system

- stop settling for second best & create the life you really love.

Together we can solve problems, create that new life you may want, turn a business around, double your sales & profitability and/or design & implement a plan of action. Here's 10 top benefits my clients tell me they recieve from coaching;



BENEFIT # 1 - - YOU WILL HAVE ME TO KEEP YOU SPIRITUALLY CONNECTED WITH PRAYER.

I will be keeping you in my prayers, asking God to bless your life & show you, clearly, what His purpose & will for you is. I will be asking Him to give you the courage & boldness you need to claim the life He wants for you. I will become a "prayer warrior" for you. I will help you to have the spiritual life that you have wanted. Learning to ask for what you want is the beginning of God giving all the good things He wants you to have. "You do not have because you do not ask." James 4:2b "And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you shall recieve." Matthew 21:22 You will develop your spiritual connection with God and form a stronger relationship with Him. As a result, you will be more peaceful, happier and understand your life purpose & mission.

"Look less at the mountain and more at the mountain-mover." - Bill Hybels


BENEFIT # 2 - - YOU WILL TAKE MORE, BETTER & SMARTER ACTIONS - - - - BECAUSE YOU SET THE AGENDA, GOALS & INTENTIONS YOU REALLY WANT!!!

Ultimately, human beings do what they really want to do. Finding out exactly what it is you really want to do for yourself and/or your business will be one of our first tasks together. I will help you to distinguish between what you want, what you need, what you should do, could do, ought to do, what you have to do from what you really want for yourself. Once you create that agenda, you're much more likely to naturally & consistently take the necessary steps of action to reach your goals.

"Great coaches are visionaries. Great coaches instill, nurture, and encourage vision, then model and motivate surrender to it." - Thomas G. Bandy


BENEFIT # 3 - - YOU WILL DEVELOP A BALANCED LIFE WITH PURPOSE THAT WORKS WELL BECAUSE YOU'VE DESIGNED IT!!!

The Bible not only speaks of an eternal life but it also speaks of an abundant life. Experiencing and having an abundant life in the this day an age means starting with getting our life in balance. Many of us are running so hard in so many different directions with so many different "irons in the fire" it's almost impossible to think about "slowing down" or having "time to myself". But that's exactly where balancing our life begins. Go to my page "About Coaching" and look for the picture of "my front porch" to read more about this idea of a balanced life.

"The problem with most leaders today is they don't stand for anything. If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything." - Don Shula


BENEFIT # 4 - - YOU WILL SUBSTANTIALLY INCREASE YOUR QUALITY OF LIFE!!!

Establishing a better balance at home, work and play can bring greater satisfaction to the things you give your time to. Getting results from your efforts, establishing personal standards (and sticking to them), strengthening professional network/personal community and just having a whole lot more fun in life. Hiring me to have as your personal "Resource Center" will assist you with issues like conflict, clutter, balance, relationships or parenting. My clients learn how to "be in the present" and enjoy life and work without the anxiety and guilt getting in the way.

BENEFIT # 5 - - YOU WILL LEARN TO BE TRUE TO YOURSELF AND LIVE OUT YOUR TRUE VISION, MISSION & PURPOSE WITH INTEGRITY & PASSION!!!

You will learn early on to identify your core values, mission in life, your purpose for being alive and your own vision in life. Once you do, you can develop or adjust your personal & business goals to reflect who you truly are and what you are passionate about. When you begin living true to yourself, implementing these changes in all other aspects of your life becomes an exciting adventure rather than "just another day."

BENEFIT # 6 - - YOU WILL GET MORE DONE IN LESS TIME!!!

Making better decisions about how you will spend your time results from having a focus that is clear. You will do things like; getting focused on what you most want to have, simplifying your life from distractions that cause you to loose focus, like; to many responsibilities, demands & projects. When you're happy, productive & free from tolerations & problems - you feel better - and your daily life will show it. The coaching process will introduce you to a variety of ways & tools that will help you get & stay focused.

BENEFIT # 7 - - YOU WILL FEEL BETTER PHYSICALLY, EMOTIONALLY & SPIRITUALLY!!!

When you have a Life Coach you can trust, you will always reach for a lot more. You will get your home, office & even your car in order so that you can be better organized & more productive. You will establish a reserve time, space, money & love. You will want to redesign your eating and lifestyle habits as well as reduce & manage stress levels better. I will always have your very best interest as my ultimate goal and as always - you set the agenda & ultimately make the final decisions about your life.

"Coaching involves observing your people's performance, praising progress, and redirecting efforts that are off base." - Ken Blanchard, Bill Hybels, and Phil Hodges


BENEFIT # 8 - - YOU WILL GROW THROUGH TIMES OF LIFE TRANSITIONS!!!

A new job or even a promotion, a move, the death of a loved one, retirement or even the different stages of parenting are all major changes in our lives & we often face these with some uncertainty and the need to readjust. Most transitions take time & often involve important decisions that may go beyond the counsel of good friends and family members. Experienced coaches help reassess life goals during times of transition, find new career options, change lifestyles, get more or even new training, reevaluate finances, or find pertinent information to help make wise decisions.

"The velocity of change in today's economy requires a steady commitment to your fundamental values. If you don't have something that you can hold on to, everything is up for grabs and people lose their way." - Dawn Gould Lepore


BENEFIT # 9 - - YOU WILL IMPROVE SKILLS & LEARN TO IMPLEMENT THEM!!!

This is what an athletic coach does, only with a Life Coach the principles go far beyond the world of sports. Coaching helps you to anticipate what you can become, looks at habits or insecurities, better manage relationships, build effective ways to keep on improving, live more in harmony with your core values, start eliminating some of the hassles of life, stop suffering, tolerating, waiting and stressing. Begin to set or extend healthy boundaries, laugh more, forgive more, love fully and be very present in the moment.

"Coaches help people grow. They help people see beyond what they are today to what they can become tomorrow." James A. Belasco


BENEFIT # 10 - - YOU WILL DEPEND ON YOUR COACH FOR ABSOLUTE TRUTH!!!

I will always speak the truth, direct, fully and in love. You can depend on me for the truth. My desire will never be to hurt or embarrass you or make your life uncomfortable, however, I will stand by you to keep your sights set on reaching your life's goals/dreams. My interest will be to give you accurate and complete information that will spur you on to accomplishing your mission. I will ask a lot from you, more than you would ask of yourself, but never more than you can do. You are hiring me to get results not stay where you already are. Expect growth. Expect changes. Expect results. You WILL get there!

"Greatness is never achieved through indecision." John Ortberg
