Life Coaching is exactly what it says. Coaching for your life, to help you essentially become and do what you want with yourself and your life.
Present & Future Focus
Life Coaching is unlike other forms of therapy or counselling, in the sense that it does not focus on the past.
Instead it focuses on where you are at now and how you can go forward. It helps you focus and plan ahead, recognising your
own strengths and personal resources. In so doing it also helps you develop new ones.
A Life Coach Is Your Guide
A Life Coach trains you, equips you for all the challenges your life presents to you and essentially acts as a guide to help
you through.
Just like a sports coach helps an athlete, footballer, boxer etc. to get the most out of themselves and become the best they can
and hopefully the best in their field of sport, the same is true of a Life Coach. The only exception being you are being trained
to
deal with whatever faces you in life instead.
NLP - The Life Coach Tool Box
The Life Coach supports you with his/her knowledge and experience and like a sports coach provides you with the techniques to
be the best and the tools,
such as your running shoes
or boxing gloves to achieve it. So to does the Life Coach, only the techniques and tools to be the best, comes in the form of
NLP.
