Goal Oriented Life Coaching Practice

Coaches 4 Success
At Coaches 4 Success, (Coaches4Success.Com), we are dedicated
to offer our clients life coaching services that can improve the quality of
their lives. One way is through goal setting. This collaborative process not
only helps with clarifying what our clients want from life, but also constructing
a vision of success as it relates to each client’s unique circumstances. Some
goals relate to the betterment of a career, finances, education, and others
have to do with family, lifestyle, and changing habits or attitude.
Working with our clients, we often notice not having a clear
vision can make the journey toward success confusing. Without having a clear
direction, it would be hard not to get lost in life. Establishing goals in the
context of a life coaching session creates support for the client, and at the
same time, increases the accountability toward achievement of those goals.
Writing down goals using one of our helpful life coaching
worksheets is an important method to increase motivation toward achieving them.
Since goals need to be manageable, the more specific the goal, the more
manageable it becomes. It is often helpful to prioritize one’s objectives and
focus on one goal at the time. We encourage and work with our clients to
mobilize resources in their lives that can help them meet their goals and to avoid
distractions that can become a barrier to successful achievement of the life
they want.
We know from experience that achievement of one’s goals helps
to build self-confidence; therefore, we encourage our clients to commit to the
process. We also emphasize having patience and persistence which is essential to
the process. By practicing patience, we are not trying to dismiss the urgency
that our clients feel in meeting their goals. In fact, the work we do is time-bound.
At the same time, it is important that we don’t add more stress to our clients’
lives by having unrealistic expectations when it comes to achievement of their
goals. Every client is unique and one size does not fit all. We respect our
client’s time table as we collaborate in creating target dates for meeting
their goals.
Finally, the goals need to be written in positive and
inspiring language. Expressing goals in an affirmative manner can help generate
energy to support its attainment. Not only goal setting needs to be done within
an uplifting life coaching context, but also the entire life coaching process
needs to embrace confidence and decisiveness. At Coaches 4 Success, we look
forward to help our clients establish clear and realistic life enhancing goals
and provide life coaching services to support the manifestation of their goals.
