Life Success Coaching: Understanding Why Your Life Coaching Clients Don’t Have Goals

December 24, 2009 by Jeffrey T. Sooey 2 Comments

In your life coaching business, what life success coaching will your clients need first?  The first key to life success coaching is to help your clients set goals.  Why don’t they already have goals?  They did hire you to be their coach right?  Yes, but they usually have only a general idea of what they want.  In life coaching you quickly learn that clients need help taking what they want and turning it into a goal.  We will discuss two reasons your clients haven’t already set goals.

Life Success Coaching:  They Don’t Know How To Set Goals!

The biggest reason your life success coaching is needed is because your clients don’t know how to set goals.  Think about when you learned to set goals.  You probably learned how to set goals when you learned how to do life coaching.  Most people have never been taught proper goal setting techniques.  A simple example would be a person who doesn’t ski.  The number one reason people don’t ski is that they don’t know how to ski.  Many people don’t set goals because they don’t know how to set goals.

Your Life Coaching Clients Don’t Know the Importance of Goal Setting

Is it possible to become a millionaire without setting a goal of becoming a millionaire?  It is if you win the lottery or inherit a million dollars.  What are the chances your life coaching client will inherit a million dollars or win the lottery? The chances are not good they will make a million dollars without your life success coaching.  Goal setting is important because it dramatically increases the chances of your client getting everything they want out of life.  Goals also will help your client get what they want faster and easier than if they had no goals.  Once your client realizes how important goal setting is, they will immediately become a goal setter.
