Life coaching online is a very convenient and effective way to receive life coaching. You have the meetings in the privacy and comfort of your own home. The sessions are completed over the phone or via Skype.
Life coaching online allows you, the client, to fit your sessions into a schedule that works best for you. When coaching fits easily into your schedule you are less stressed and more likely to reap the benefits of your coaching sessions.
Each online life coaching session is approximately 45 minutes to one hour long. Usually the sessions are held once a week. You and your coach will decide prior to your first session a goal that you would like to accomplish.
The coach then guides you towards that goal by offering suggestions, opportunities and direction. Think of your coach as your task master.
You and your online life coach will work through obstacles that are holding you back from achieving your goals including limiting beliefs and fears. A good coach will gently but firmly push you to reach outside your comfort zone so that you can achieve your objective.
You may have several goals you want to accomplish but you and your coach will break those goals down and organize them into easy and obtainable steps. Your goal may be too loose 50 pounds which is very achievable by following a step by step process that will fit nicely into your lifestyle.
Your goal might be to open your own business. Again, your online coach will help you break this down into achievable steps and small goals and before you know it, you will have a fully functioning business. This is called chunking. With the right tools you can chunk anything so it can become accessible.
Whatever your goals an online life coach can help you achieve them.
So how do you pick the right life coach? You want to make sure that they are certified and that the school they attended has a good reputation.
You also want to know their background. What makes them an expert or someone who you trust to coach you? For instance, I am a Registered Nurse, College Professor and I have two Master’s Degrees. I am not telling you that to toot my own horn but to show you that beyond a certification in coaching, I am well educated, I have an extensive knowledge about health and medicine and most importantly, I have always worked very closely with people; as a mentor, manager and teacher. I have been doing this work for over 25 years.
You want to look for these kinds of characteristics in a life coach. You want to hire someone you consider to be an authority. Also, online life coaching experts should offer a complimentary first session. Remember, your coach is going to ask you to move outside your comfort zone and sometimes ask you to do something difficult, you want to have a rapport and established trust with your coach otherwise, you will not succeed. Everyone has different personalities; you want to make sure the life coach you choose is a good fit with yours.
