Beyond Life Coaching
We all have self-selected the School of Life, i.e. I want to come into human form and want to advance my soul's path by doing such and such in order to learn such and such which will bring me closer and closer to my Perfect Universe/Self.
One of the reasons I wanted to come into human form this time around was to learn to totally trust myself/the Universe. This is what I call life coaching and beyond. It is what my own individual path is. There are many ways a person can "setup" this soul-growing challenge.
For example:
- One could be a person like Mother Theresa and live the kind of life she lived.
- Or one could be born really ugly or disabled and learn how to totally trust and love oneself even in the face of rejection or derision.
- Or one could have really low self esteem because they chose a mother who would criticize them regularly and often.
I chose #3!
One of the ways I've been doing it in this life's journey is by being the kind of person who can only really meet people if they feel magnetized to me. If I put myself forward in most any way, it seems to push most people away rather than pull them closer.
The way this shows up in business, which for me is about having clients who want to become coaches and creating written products and sometimes giving workshops, is to never have marketing or selling myself work. People don't react well when I do it.
So my journey is having me BE the magnet. In order to be the magnet, I have to totally be myself and love what and who that self is. What a journey it has been so far!
So what do you consider life coaching and beyond? I'm thinking that if you are considering becoming a coach or are a coach and wonder why you don't have the clients you want, you might think of determining what is the most soul-related, authentic mode of having people find you that would work for your uniqueness ?
What is your path?
Hi Maia,
ReplyDeleteI agree that we do attract into our lives by who we are. However, I would also say that in order to facilitate those people finding us, we must get our information out there so they can - that's the marketing part. That in no way needs to be obtrusive or distasteful - it just needs to be available.
There is a healthy balance and each of us can find ways to market ourselves as we are regardless of our role in life.
Oh, and I also agree that we choose to be born with specific lessons we want to learn. Life is so exciting!
Hi Maia,
ReplyDeleteI wonder "How do you determine what the most soul-related, authentic mode of having people find you that would work for your uniqueness?" like you say
How do you detemine that?
It's been a long series of experiences for me which boil down to not totally trusting myself. For example, if I feel really uncomfortable at networking meetings, it's not for me. Etc. Sometimes it helps to have other people you trust on board in your life to point out where you are not in vibrational agreement with yourself. Boils down for most to be a process. Hope that helps.
