With a Gloomy Recession on the Horizon, many people are looking into
Life Coaching as a profession.

- You can work from home, or anywhere else in the world
- You can work in your pajamas if you don’t feel like dressing up

- You don’t have to drive anywhere and waste money on gas for work
- You won’t have a boss hovering over you anymore and telling you
what to do

The skills and ideas one gains from a life coach may endure well beyond
the paid coaching period, so one isn’t  just paying for time on the phone
or for short-term benefits.

Ideally you’re paying for a Permanent Shift
to a Higher Level of Performance!

Even though good life coaching isn’t cheap, the results can easily
make it worthwhile.

Many Life Coaching students have paid about $300/month for coaching,
but ended up boosting their income by many times more than that.

If you have your own business, and you hire a coach to help improve
your business’ bottom line, you can deduct your coaching fees as
a business expense.

How to find a Life Coach

Finding a really G-O-O-D Life Coach will take some investigation
on your part. The really G-O-O-D  Life Coaches are really B-U-S-Y.

Lots of independent coaches who’ve gone through formal training
programs can be found online.

One good site is… www.FindACoach.com

NOTE:

[We don’t have any financial interest in whether or not
you decide if you to hire a coach from there].

You can also find a coach via personal referral, but you’ll still
want to get a free trial session. You need to determine if the
coach’s style is compatible with your goals.

You have nothing to lose and much to gain. It’s a Win-Win.

A good Life Coach will be confident that You will benefit from their service
They will offer this Unconditional Money Back Guarantee:

- If you’re not happy with their program for any reason
…then ask for your money back and you will get a full refund
of your enrollment fee with no questions or hassles whatsoever.

(That guarantee is one of the reasons YOU Should Sign Up).

A good Life Coach will give to assignments to complete and
have you Watch special Videos as part of the coaching.

Often times Life Coaches are people who worked in business
for decades and then retired, later starting a coaching practice to…

Share their hard-earned wisdom with YOU.

When it comes to selecting a life coach,
it’s important to shop around to find someone compatible.

- You want a coach that will help you achieve the results you desire.

This doesn’t necessarily mean hiring a coach who’s just like you.
It may mean hiring someone who’s very different from you.

When you identify some coaches that seem like a good fit
for your needs and your budget… request a free trial session.

Don’t hire a coach who doesn’t offer a Free Trial Session.
— it’s too much of a gamble.

Try several different coaches until you find one you feel confident
will help you. If the free trial leaves you feeling doubtful or hesitant,
definitely pass.

Understand that a coach is your helper, not your boss.
You must be the one to decide what you want out of each session.

You’re always in command.

A good Life Coach will begin their sessions by asking,
“What would you like to work on today?”

It is up to you to share your goals, challenges, and problems
and to request help where you feel you need it.

If you aren’t clear about what you want to work on,
a good coach can help you gain clarity and set new goals.

Just be sure that the emerging goals are your goals,
not your coach’s goals for you.

Life coaching relationships are usually short-term.

Eventually you become so familiar with your coach’s style that
your coach isn’t challenging you as much, or perhaps
you’ve achieved the major goals you wanted to achieve.

You Can Achieve any Type of Goal such as losing a certain
amount of weight and/or starting a business.

On the other hand, greater familiarity can also create a
stronger bond that increases accountability.

You’re less willing to disappoint your coach by dropping the ball.

You’ll have to decide if your coaching is generating sufficient
results to justify the ongoing costs.

6-12 months should probably be your limit with any one person.
12 months really seems like a stretch.

You eventually reach the point where you’ll grow faster
by learning from someone new.

The exception would be if you are growing and improving
very rapidly, always learning fresh ideas and techniques that
could be applied to your coaching sessions or business.

A Good Life Coach should be able to help you…

Boost your performance At Least
Enough to pay for the Coaching!
