Really, how can we make this easy? Because I&#8217;ve been wracking my brain over this question for the last few days until my brain feels like it is going to blow a fuse. The obvious answer is to get some really great coaching about how to do it.<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: normal;\"> So let\u2019s see what some of my mentors have taught me. There is difference between doing something, and talking about it. I doubt if any of the world class coaches are reading this, unless they are searching for an answer for one of their prot\u00e9g\u00e9s. Because they probably can\u2019t put the answer into words either. If you asked Michael Jordan how he gets the ball into the hoop, he would probably just shrug his shoulders and tell you he just throws it in.   My mentors say just about the same thing about how to become a life coach.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are four levels of knowledge\u2026but instead of just going back into our heads about this, let\u2019s step into the world of our mentors. When you listen to a session with one of the<strong> <a title=\"Become a coach\" href=\"http:\/\/www.coachestrainingblog.com\" target=\"_self\">world class life coaches<\/a><\/strong><strong>, <\/strong>you know they are in \u201cthe zone\u201d. They are in the client\u2019s head, heart, and very being. So let\u2019s get out of our heads about<strong> <a title=\"Coaching Skills\" href=\"http:\/\/www.coachestrainingblog.com\/blog\" target=\"_self\">how to become a life coach<\/a><\/strong><strong>, <\/strong>because<strong>\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is a difference between TALKING about being a world class life coach and ACTUALLY BEING one.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to <strong>become a life coach&#8230; <\/strong>a great life coach, then hang with the masters. Do what they do. Step into the zone. During a big track race in high school, I remember finishing the last 100 meters in silence. I KNEW the stands were full, but I only heard the sound of my feet. The quietness seemed so odd to me, that I mentioned it to a friend. She told me that people were screaming their heads off. THAT is the zone. When you are in the moment of BEing, you are aware of nothing else.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve all had moments like that. Can you think of a time? How did it FEEL? Were you THINKing about it? Or just BEing? In order for magic to happen during a coaching session, we have to simply BE. NOT thinking about what\u2019s going on with them, or trying to figure out what they should do. Just simply stepping into their shoes, their head, their heart\u2026and BEing them. Only then can you can wrestle over their obstacles with them, and step into the realm of greatness as you<strong> become a life coach.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Colette Seymann<br \/>\nJTS Advisors Accountability Coach<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PART 2 Whats the Easiest Way to Become a Life Coach?
