How Does Life Coaching Work?

What if your life could be different in the blink of an eye? What would you do first? Where would you go? Where would you live? How would you feel? What exactly would be different? In life coaching, we call these the “Miracle Questions.” Life coaches use this exercise to guide clients into imagining and communicating the true desires of their heart. The daily tasks of life can make it difficult to even be aware of what we really want in life. This “miracle question” exercise can be helpful in getting past the static and noise of daily life.

When we were children, we all had dreams of what we wanted to be when we grew up. An astronaut, an actress, a racecar driver, a writer; these are the things of children’s dreams. While these careers may not be realistic goals in adulthood, it is important to remember and reactivate that drive and optimism of our youth. Having a little of that enthusiasm in adulthood and applying it to our current goals is a worthy exercise. An experienced and trained life coach can help you find the exuberance of your youth.

Was it difficult for you to answer the miracle questions above? Can you not even imagine how you want to change your life? This is a common problem, and an experienced life coach can help guide you to realize your potential. You may just have a feeling of being unsettled, or discontented. You know you want things to be different, you just do not know what specific changes you want to put into place.

Growth Focused Life Coaching

Counseling usually attempts to assist individuals transition from pain to healing. Therapists and mental health professionals can make use of certain scales to measure this change from hurt to health. For example, a negative 5 would be a very painful place, and 0 would be neutral. Alternatively, life coaching works to attempt to bring a person from neutral to positive, such as from 0 to a positive 5, which would include happiness, peace, and fulfillment.

We can not always measure our lives so simply in numbers and scales. Our lives are made up of many varying facets and factors. In each, we can experience extreme pain and extreme joy. We see examples of this in the world around us. We see successful musicians and athletes, who have achieved amazing success in their careers, but whose personal lives are in shambles. We may also know people personally who appear to have it all, but then suddenly fall from grace very suddenly and unexpectedly.

In life coaching, there are various aspects of life that we look at to determine success. In each category, a certain measure could be given, from 1 to 10.

These include:

• Physical environment
• Career
• Money
• Health
• Friends and family
• Romance
• Personal growth
• Fun and recreation

How would you rank yourself in each of these categories? Would you give yourself a positive 10 in any area? Would you give yourself a negative 10 in any area? Whatever you would rank yourself in a certain category, this may change in the very next moment. We have all experienced sudden and life changing events that make us plummet into the negatives. We cannot anticipate the challenges that life has in store for us. What we can anticipate is that we will face challenges. Being prepared to face these challenges is an important task, and one that a Thriveworks life coach can assist you with.

The famous psychologist Erich Fromm once wrote, “Man always dies before he is fully born.” When you first read this, it may sound like a pessimistic thought. However, it is actually the exact opposite. As humans, we are always attempting to achieve more during our short time on Earth. Whether in our careers or personal relationships, we can never accomplish everything we want or make a perfect 10 in every category. We can always challenge ourselves to do more.
