About YOU Thursday!
Greetings! My name is Rosemary and I am a Professional Life Coach. I was very excited when Vish asked me to do a weekly piece here on Thursdays at Magic Smoke.
My AOL Journal Inspirations is filled with coaching tips. My mission statement is "A little about me and a lot about you!" I hope my entries here at Magic Smoke will Inspire you to challenge yourself to clarify your dreams and make them a reality. I hope to help you see the beauty that lies within you.
If you are like me you enjoy getting to know people when you read their Journals. I thought with my first here I would do two things.
1. Explain what a Life Coach is and what you can expect to read.
2. Give you a little bit of background about myself
Life Coaching had been around for quite some time, however it is currently being recognized by the public as a cutting edge solutionto many of today's challenges. Coaching is not Therapy.
Therapy
Asks "Why and from Where"
Is insight oriented
Emphasizes Past & Present
Focuses on healing and understanding
VS
Coaching
Asks "What's Next?" "What now?"
Is action oriented
Emphasizes present and future.
Focuses on direct potential, healing is a side effect
Coaching doesn't try to "fix" you as I believe there is nothing wrong with you. I believe you already have all the answers. My job as a coach is to ask you the right questions so that ou can discover what you already know.
I challenge you to find the answers. If I make you feel uncomfortable, or if you are heading into uncharted territories then I am doing my job correctly. The answers and challenges come from within your own mind, heart and soul. I simply help you to recognize them.
Sometimes you may try something new and "fail". In coaching I do not see this as a failure. It is an opportunity to learn and grow. Most times people look at failure and give up. In coaching you will learn to look at failure the way that Thomas Edison did "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." The entries that you will find here will find here are meant to challenge you to see the beautiful potential that lies within you."
Now a little about me.
I am 44 years old and have been coaching for 12 years. I have been married for 22 years. I have two boys ages 21 and 19, and a girl age 13. I grew up on the road between New York and Florida and I now live on Long Island in New York. If you want to learn a bit more check out 100 things about me
Starting Next Thursday I will have a weekly challenge for you. If you would like to get some prep work in ahead of time visit Inspirations for clues as to what it will be.
