COACHING VERSUS COUNSELING
WHAT IS “LIFE COACHING?”
Without further “adieu,” yes, I’m a Life Coach and I am not French. Hello, from traveling the most unconventional path towards growth and excellence.
I am a…
“Life Transformational Specialist” (As Dana Carvey says in the 80's SNL skit, “Isn’t that special?” It is… I believe what we do truly is or we wouldn’t have devoted our life to the cause of the Human Experience that can wreak havoc when we loose our clarity, drive or purpose)
Basically the CHASM between Counseling and Coaching is one lives in the past and the other lives in the present gift of the future. Now, let’s close that Gap as I explain what a Life Coach means to me. It’s taking the gift of reality and imagineering it to a NEW level and living big through impactul meaning and mission to be of service to our guest. As a Life Transformational Specialist personally, don’t have time, energy, bandwidth and patience to live in the past of things for to long, because there is no future for me to present my gifts to the past.
What’s that famous definition of insanity?
Being in your present is likely to move you from the moment with momentum towards the future of possibility….
Disclaimer: There will be made up words here, grammer misspeelings, punctuation; may or may not be right, you are an intelligent human being that can place things and correct them to order when needed. My made up words will have a deep struggling meaning within the confines of self. Use your imagination as everything around you is made up. Words are made up too. You are made up. So, now that I have made this abundantlly clear as the Sun on an ant, in a freckled teenagers magnifying glass rearview.
Let’s deep dive in to the shallow world of Counseling, I believe it is an ancient practice and you have to go backwards to move forward, and it’s when you stay in that sloppy mess you don’t choose to change or digress to progress. A defacto-defaulted victim mindset is where your defaulted to a victim of circumstance. Time waits for no one.
People who pay Counselors are usually people who are stuck in some semblance of the past (of how it’s remembered) or are on a medication rollercoaster of pharma karma chemicals, not fully knowing whether they are coming up, down or upside round. In saying that, this is an industry that has survived and thrived on sickness as a crutch for advancement. I believe there are excellent counselors out there, and if we want to make a change we need to bring them to the present, before we can move them to the future.
If we can’t keep them sick, we cannot make money off of them and keep them in same ness. When we are present to the mindfuelness of the moment and beyond, there is no busying with the past.
“AWARENESS IS ANOTHER WORD FOR CONSCIOUSNESS.”
— Raymond J. Negron
WHAT IS IN-SAME-NESS? (MADE UP WORD)
INSAMENESS — A PLACE OR STATE OF MENTAL MIND, STAYING IN THE SAME PLACE AND BEING A VICTIM TO CIRCUMSTANCE(S) IN OUR CONTROL. STANDING IN PLACE PARALYZED BY MADE UP FEARS. THOSE WHO ARE IN SAMENESS ARE SLAVES TO THEIR STORY THAT THEY BELIEVE AND THERE THOUGHTS CREATE VAGUENESS OF A STAUNCH REALITY… I’M SURE YOU CAN PICK UP OTHER CONNOTATIONS. THIS WORD HAS UNDERLYINGLY BEEN GIVEN…
People who invest in coaching are investing in there OWN futuristic well spring of well being, and seeking inspiring challenges to collapse time, energy, effort and enthusiasm; so they can get to where they need to get quicker with less fret.
Coaching is where I choose to lay my professional expertise hat, as this is where people have reached a stage in life that they know they need to breakthrough to the next level and go to a new devil from where they are to where they want to go…
Leaping the chasm of your Truth or Truthiness? HMM!
HOW? That’s when they seek a coach… The WHY…
From the real to the ideal, and scaling the chasm between those points of time with anything we are going to accomplish. As Coaches we help our Guests see a GAP, instead of a CHASM, so they can see the end in mind. We ask quality questions to help get us from where we are to where we want to go in states and stages, first-second, third steps, nudging challenges, fun games that make them see life as a series of tests and life changing challenges.
People who seek Coaches are functional. If you are a Counselor, I hope you transfer into a full time Life Coach for we need YOU. Sometimes we like our Comfort Zones of our old self to not learn a new skill. Competence over Certifications will win every single time. The Man who laid bricks for a living and the guy who went to school to learn how to lay bricks. Whose making a living? Most Millionnaires I personally know never went to college and they did it the hard way, by learning through trial and error of there ways. Having Coaches in there lives and leveling up the playing field. Also, by another key factor of “Managing there risk.”
My company is “Beyond Failure to Reach Success,” this is where MOST of us lay our hats when we truly learn to fail forward and we are okay with making mis-takes as part of the process of progress, learning, improving on the way, while we TWEAK out what’s working and remove what’s not, with all that we do when we move through our states and stages.
This IMAGE ABOVE is about immerssion, immersing yourself in life’s rare air as every obstacle you encounter is the way. If you are having problems finding your way WHY NOT seek out a Life Coach that can help you remove the obstacle by the quality of the questions that you already know the answers to. You just have to DIG, DIG and DIG to find them.
A beautiful quote for you “Life doesn’t happen to you, it happens for you.” I could be wrong. Please let me kow what you think? I love different point of views.💥💙
