What Life Coaching is not

Sitting back and having someone sort out your life for you

You cannot rely on the coach to do it all for you. They will help you to decide and to act and will push you to overcome the inertia that is inherent in life but cannot and will not take all the steps for you. The coach can provide direction, suggestions, support and structure but it is best to use the coach to help you get what you want rather than relying on them to make it all happen.

Counselling or therapy

Coaching is not counselling or therapy. Counselling pays a lot of attention to a perceived problem in a person’s life. Coaching focuses on acceptance and observations of what is in your life and what you can do by your own action and self-belief to change your life in the future.
