A Life Coach Can Help When You're Too Busy Earning a Living to Make Any Money

What is a life coach?

A life coach can help you overcome life's challenges, whether you want to change careers, build superior human relationships, or improve your health and wellness.

According to the International Coach Federation in a survey of 210 coaching clients who had been coach for an average of nine months, 98.5% of the respondents to their study on coaching, stated that their coaching sessions were valuable. At least 62% of the respondents confide in their coach at least as much as they confide in their spouse, their best friend, or their therapist.

Life coaching can improve all areas of your life including building better connections with your spouse or significant other, your children, wealth, health and fitness, and much more.

Why use a life coach

If you want to improve your life, health, or business, life coaching may be just right for you. Your life coach will treat you like you are the only person in the world, and who couldn't benefit from that? Don't we all like to be listened to? Don't we all relish speaking with someone who only wants to hear what we have to say.

Everyone is cost conscious today. They wonder if they can afford to hire a life coach. The more appropriate question, is can they afford not to - especially if they want to take their life's work and achievements to the next level.

People who have worked with life coaches, according to the survey I referenced above, experienced higher levels of self-awareness, smarter goal-setting, a more balanced life, and lower levels of stress, among many other benefits. They have more self-confidence, enhanced communications skills, and more fun.

How can a life coach help me?

Well, there are too many advantages to life coaching for me to list here, so I will mention just a few.

  • Your coach will help you set realistic, success-oriented goals. Because of this, your life coach can help you keep your life in balance by making smarter decisions and acting upon them.
  • Your coach will work with you within an environment which builds your confidence and trust so you can share your inner-most thoughts and ideas without fear of being judged. Because of this rapport, you can more readily remove any emotional blockages impeding your success.
  • Your life coach is trained through active, empathetic listening to ask you powerful questions that inspire you to action to move towards accomplishment of your goals. Because of this, your coach can help you attract more wealth and make more money because your strengths, goals, and actions are aligned and in harmony.
  • Your life coach can help open your vision to different perspectives so you can readily and willingly think "outside of the box".
Your coach is trained to focus on you as if you are the only person in the world. There's little wonder that people who receive competent coaching reap so many benefits.
