Have you ever used a coach to help you achieve your goals?  Was it a good or bad experience?

I haven't used a 'life' coach but have been with companies who used business coaches during project mobilisation for customer care, process engineering, change management etc.\n\nTo be honest much of it was very average and seemed to be folks using standard play-books rather than a truly tailored approach.  Personally I don't believe I got a great deal out of it but I think it was more aimed at the less professional (in terms of qualification not approach!) staff.\n\nIt has ranged from embarrassing role-play exercises to very well thought out work-shops on specific issues.\n\nAs with most things the quality seems to come from the preparation rather than simply regurgitating a few PowerPoint slides and changing the project name.\n\nJust my thoughts ... others mileage may vary :-)

There are many plans that work, the key is really what will work for yur personality and discipline type. I used (and still use)Weight Watchers and was very successful. I lost 123 pounds and now I run marathons, teach dance and even tried out for womens professional football, I used to be 256 pounds and would get tired walking ! Weight Watchers is great because it is so felxible, the weekly meeting really help with support and education about nutrition and excercise topics. Go to Weightwatchers.com and check it out!

I dunno, do you know how to do what they do? If so, are you practicing regularly? Are you as good or better than a pro? Are you committed to becoming a pro? If you answered yes to two or more of the above questions, the answer is yes, most likely.

A personal trainer takes the time to know YOU as a person, what your fitness goals are, what you enjoy doing and what you don't, your personal strengths and weaknesses, etc.  \n\nShe then designs a workout for you which will help you achieve your goals and challenge you without making you give up.  This workout can evolve as you gain strength and endurance.  She might work out with you or just guide you.  \n\nMy trainer works out with me once a month. In between I work out 3x a week on my own for 80 minutes each time.  I talk to her at least once a week to tell her how I'm doing and if I have any questions or problems.  When we work out together, she goes over whatever new concepts she introduced last time to make sure I'm doing those exercises correctly and then teaches me something new or a more challenging way to do an existing exercise.

Life Coaching can be expensive but there are cheaper options. Most coaches quote a figure based on a set amount of contact time that their client's receive, so if you want a coaching session every week for 2 hours each time, then you will pay for that. The cheaper option is to ask a coach what he/she can offer for the amount that you want to pay. This isn't the ideal solution, it is worth considering balancing benefit against cost, but it might help you discover the coach for you. Please make sure that whomever you choose that they are properly trained.\n\nCheck out http://www.future-you.co.uk or the coaches training institute\n\nJohn

Absolutely. Any degrees or experience will help over nothing at all. Some life coaches start out as counselors with no degrees whatsoever, but have the experience. Anything that gives you an edge, like your B.A. will help. Good luck!

We had a sub in ballet last week who told us to really "use our energy".  She explained that if you look confident and happy, and expressive, it will help your entire performance.  Another thing she said was, "the floor will always be there.  It won't disappear if you don't look at it."  \n\nShe also helped me improve my plies.  For me, the biggest thing holding me back was that my plies were just not deep enough.  She explained that without a good solid plie you are more likely to hurt yourself.  At one point, she gently pushed down on my shoulders to show me how deep the grande plies should be.  Sounds like a silly thing, but my dancing has improved a LOT since last week.  She also told me to really be concious of my allignment.

It's hard in a situation like that.  I coach fifteen year old girls and I had a similar incident and I wasn't sure how to go about helping her.  It took me awhile to try and get her help because I wanted to make sure and have the best action plan.

Yes I did. It was a group session for weight loss. So far I have lost over a stone in weight and think that as long as you have an open mind, hypnotherapy definitely 100% can work

Yes! I have had great success by following the principles taught by Tony Robbins. I bought one of his books (Awaken the Giant Within), several years ago. By following the ideas there, I have amassed a large net worth. Now I teach these same principles to my own group of followers as a business mentor. I will be glad to add you to my success group if you qualify. Write to Bruce at boatclub@go.com and tell me more about yourself. Its free. You have no risk and everything to win!

I was thinking about going thru it. Did it work 4 you? Did you loose weight or was it a scam.

I don't know.  Why do you?\n\nWell then, perhaps it's time to consult a different coach.

Actually I find that when I am doing for someone it is easiest to get it going. \n\nGood luck and God Bless!!

YES it pays off... for the gym.  Fewer than 1 in 4 people who purchase a gym membership will be using it 3 months later.  If having a trainer will keep you motivated, the gym can help but it's usually at an added cost.  If your having trouble staying motivated to work out at home, I predict it will be even harder to make the 15 minute trip each way.
