In success coaching, you often feel the need to reveal the secret of success to your personal success coach clients.  Every few years, someone comes out with a book that becomes popular with the masses.  These books usually suggest that there is a quick and easy way to be happy and make a lot of money.  All you have to do is visualize positive thoughts and you will attract everything in life that you want.  If that were true, there would be no need for people to have a personal success coach.  This idea appeals to people that are not willing to do the hard work required to achieve anything worth achieving.  What success coaching can you give your clients to combat this thinking?

In Success Coaching, The Secret Your Personal Success Coach Clients Need To Learn Is That There Is No Secret

.

In success coaching, the secret is that there is no secret.  There are only universal principles that have been discovered and passed down from generation to generation.  Your personal success coach clients want happiness, health and financial freedom.  These results do not occur just by thinking positive.  They are the result of design.  Sir Isaac Newton wrote “For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.” As a personal success coach, you should emulate this by reminding your clients that they must take action in order to see reaction to your success coaching.

Your Personal Success Coach Client Must Not “Reinvent The Wheel” In Your Success Coaching Sessions

.

On the other hand, perhaps there is a secret of success for your personal success coach client:  just have them do what other successful people do.   Do it over and over and over again.  If your client does that, nothing will stop them from eventually succeeding.  On the opposite end, if your client doesn’t do what other successful people do, no amount of success coaching will help them.  Success is designed through planning.   Success is attracted to through cause and effect.  If your personal success coach client takes the right actions, they will get the right results from your success coaching over time.

Do you know individually why each of your personal success coach clients need success coaching?  They probably need success coaching because they haven’t been able to achieve their goals on their own.  Why is that?  Fear of failure is a common reason your personal success coaching client hasn’t set or reached their goals in life.  Each of your clients will have different reasons why they have fear.   Here are two common reasons for fear and ways you can help them.

Your Personal Success Coaching Client Is Probably In A Comfort Zone

.

Many people are comfortable where they are in their lives.  They have no desire to strive for more.  Because they don’t have any goals, they don’t see the need to have a personal success coach.  You should accept that.  There is no rule that says we need to constantly be striving for more in life.  Whenever you are having a free success coaching session with a prospect ask them a couple of questions.  “Do you truly have what you want out of life, or are you just settling for less?”  You may also ask them “Are you truly happy or are you just in a comfort zone?”  Then you can use their answers to expand their thinking.

Success Coaching Clients Often Suffer From The Curse Of Early Success

.

Your personal success coaching client may have left high school or college and no one told them that couldn’t achieve great things in their lives.  They may have tried different things and success came easily to them.  Then life dealt them a blow, as life always does.  All of a sudden, success doesn’t come so easily.  In fact, they lose the success they had.  They go bankrupt.  They get divorced.  They lose that unstoppable confidence that they had, and they stop setting goals.  That’s when success coaching clients start to tell themselves they are too old or too young, not smart enough or not talented enough, without enough time, without enough money.  Whatever you client’s reason for not succeeding, encourage them.  Show them someone who has faced greater challenges and succeeded.  Encourage them that failure is a part of life, and you’re coaching them to handle it successfully for the rest of their life.

Get Yourself in the Right Frame of Mind for Success Coaching When You Practice Being a Personal Success Coach

.

You really didn’t think you could just start success coaching your client without warming up, did you?  As a personal success coach, you’ll think everyone wants to think success thoughts, do success oriented actions, and take your ‘wonderful’ success coaching just because you have the title of personal success coach.

Think again!

The Last Thing You Want to do: Start Success Coaching Someone Without ‘Foreplay’

.

As a personal success coach:

• You have your ability to perceive what’s going on with your client.
• You have your special ‘patented’ success coaching technique for transforming their life and giving them access to the success they have inside.

…but if you are not in ‘the zone’, then you won’t remember all that stuff when it counts

Suffer From ‘Premature Transformation’ as a Personal Success Coach?

.

Haven’t you ever crashed and burned in a success coaching session?  Was it because you didn’t have any skills?

Probably, you knew what to do.

Probably you had done it well before.

But you weren’t in the zone, so you had ‘performance issues’.

However, I bet you’ve had those sessions where you performed like the champion personal success coach that you really are.  I bet you used skills you didn’t even know you had!

What made the difference?

‘Coach Foreplay’ Gets You in The ‘Success Coaching Zone’

.

You’ve got to get yourself warmed up with some good, clean ‘Coach Foreplay’.

• Recall the best sessions you’ve ever had.  Replay them in your mind.
• Use some inspiring and motivating affirmations to get yourself moving in a positive direction.
• Meditate and Journal to tune up your mind.
• Recite / read your mission, vision, values, etc.

Now That You’re Hot And Bothered as a Personal Success Coach, Don’t Forget About Your Client

.

When you get on the coaching call with your client, don’t be so insensitive as to think that they are just automatically ready to take your ‘full throttle’ personal success coach intensity.  They may not be.  In fact they may be a little scared or apathetic or angry or ‘you name it’, when it comes to your success coaching.

• Help them get warmed up a bit by reviewing the wins they had since your last call.
• Acknowledge them for their wins and listen with empathy to their challenges.
• Re-frame anything that sounds like it weights heavily upon them.  Help them to see those things in a positive light.
• Now ask them ‘What is the result that you want from this call?’
• Work with them on formulating that result.  Help them make it SMART: Specific, Measurable, Actionable, Reason-driven, and Timely.

These simple warm-ups for both you and your client is what it really takes to be a personal success coach that always ‘performs’.  Now you are ready to perform like the success coaching champion that you are!

Everyone who goes to a personal success coach for success coaching has a reason they haven’t succeeded. “They have a fear of success or they have a fear of failure.” “Bad luck or other circumstances have prevented them from taking the necessary actions.” And last but not least, “They’ve tried everything and nothing works.” Here are some success coaching strategies you can use as a personal success coach that will help you get people started on a path to success.

Success Coaching Strategy #1: Do What You Can Do, When You Can Do It

e

In success coaching your clients will always have reasons why they can’t get some things done. But, by consistently taking small steps on a daily basis, after a year you will have achieved more than most. The truth is, most people don’t even do that! As a personal success coach, most people will start making progress with a little accountability and strategy.

Success Coaching Strategy #2: Find a Mentor

e

If you’re going to go somewhere you’ve never been, you either need a map or a guide. As a personal success coach you can be both.

Success Coaching Strategy #3: Let Go of the Past

e

A lot of people get hung up on past wounds, allowing them to be excuses for not achieving what they want. Become a personal success coach who takes a stand for your clients, holding them accountable to the fact that they are 100% responsible for their own thoughts, feelings and actions. Through success coaching, empower your clients. Instill in them a believe that if they don’t like something, they have the power to change.

Success Coaching Strategy #4: Relive Past Successes

e

Everyone has had successful moments when they have felt, if only temporarily, powerful and unstoppable. Most people have trouble fully acknowledging these times, and within a few days can barely recall the event. It’s up to you as their personal success coach to show them all of our memories are stored in great detail, and we can relive them at any time we choose in great detail. Then use success coaching to help your clients use past successes as building blocks for future successes.

Success Coaching Strategy #5: Do Something Outside Your Comfort Zone Everyday

e

Who said, “If you want to become someone you’ve never been, you’re going to have to do something you’ve never done before?” As a personal success coach, you can use this success coaching strategy to help people start taking those small steps outside their comfort zone that will eventually bring them beyond any successes they could ever dream of.

Any of these success coaching strategies will help your help your clients start moving toward their goals. And you can use them in your own business as well. Don’t forget, the more you achieve, the more you will be able to offer as a personal success coach.

Who do you need to become to be a personal success coach?  How do you program your success coaching clients to help them achieve their goals?  Can you program yourself for success?  How do you provide value as a personal success coach?  What’s the missing link?  When your success coaching clients have motivational problems, it’s from a combination of fear and procrastination

Step I: Identify the Role of Personal Beliefs in Success Coaching

.
What drives motivation and how a personal success coach shifts someone’s motivation in a single success coaching session?  Beliefs; learned patterns that either get us results or don’t.  How do you change someone’s beliefs?

Step 2: Become a Personal Success Coach Who Uses their Client’s Brain

.

Think of an area where you or one of your success coaching clients have a limiting pattern.  Become a personal success coach who recognizes the unconscious set-points in your brain that control this pattern.  What do you focus on? Believe? Visualize? Say to yourself?  How do you breathe? Stand? Move?

Step 3: In Success Coaching as in All Else – No Pain, No Gain

.
The next step is to become a personal success coach who decides to change, or decides to help your success coaching clients to change.  People are motivated by avoiding pain or gaining pleasure.  Imagine what will you fail to accomplish if this pattern remains?  What will your deepest regret be?  What will you loose out on?  Also decide what you will gain by changing.  Decide how your life might look one year from now, five years from now, and even 10 years from now by just making that change now.

A Personal Success Coach Must Maintain the Change in Themselves and Their Clients

.
Finally you are ready to become a personal success coach who is ready to change the pattern, and help your success coaching clients do the same.  How do you change the pattern?  You can scramble it.  Play the old pattern like a movie, but change the details to make the movie silly and outrageous.  You can decide what you want to feel in a situation, and then ‘practice’ success over and over in your mind.  And once you make the change, make sure you have supportive peers to help you maintain the change until it becomes a new pattern.
