Does coaching suit you?

Usually coaching is presented as a perfect solution for any problems in case you find a good coach and start working with him. And as the principles of coaching say that all is “ok” with all people, and that everybody has relevant resources in order to change something in their lives, then it happens that any person is able to achieve relevant results.  But is it true in reality? How to know that coaching suits you exactly?

All of us are Russians, and the Russian soul, as it is known, is quite mysterious. And even if we made any conclusions from classic literature, then that is what we like to reflect from early years, trying to understand the reasons for our failures and problems, comparing ourselves with other people, with acquaintances and friends, with colleagues and chiefs , with weak and strong forces of the world.  Also, unfortunately, we like to accuse somebody and be sorry about our position, glorify and abuse fate. And quite often it happens that that is the way we get used to all of it. And we forget that for a long time we have not tried to undertake anything in order to change something for the better.

However, the secret inhere is usually easy: if you realize your problem and step by step work correctly in the right direction, then you would be able to achieve what you dreamt of, and sometimes even what you have not thought about. And here is the main problem. In order to achieve anything, you need consciousness, motivation and a system of working on yourself. And that is the point, where a lot of people finish their way to any changes in life.  

«They run out of their strong will» — as many say. However, “strong will” is just a discipline, multiplied with motivation, which, in its turn, appears after strict realization of your dream, visualization of the result and understanding, for what you really need, but not anybody else. So, if a person does not have any direct goal, he would not have any understanding, motivation, discipline and changes as a result.  

That is why in order to make coaching help you, you need to have a goal. Coaching is a technique, which would help you reach your destination only even if you know by yourself where to go.
