Becoming a personal life coach is a challenging, but very rewarding career choice. With the stresses of every day life and the state of the economy at the moment, making a choice to become a life coach could see your services very much in demand.
Coaches come from all backgrounds and walks of life. Consulting, business training, and entrepreneurship are just a few of the occupations that may have provided the experience you need to become a successful Personal Life Coach.
There are several key qualities that you really need in order to successfully make the career choice as a personal life coach. You should really be a genuine person who lives by good, consistent values and someone who is open to change. As a coach you will be leading by example, and so you must have your own foundations in place.
Being a good, effective communicator is also important if you want to be a successful personal life coach. It is about imparting what you posses and being able to understand what your client’s needs are and being able to deliver on those needs in an effective way.
It also helps if you are passionate about helping others succeed. If you are, this will drive you to do the best for your clients, and if you are able to deliver consultations with energy and enthusiasm, together with a degree of empathy when required, you could have what it takes to do well as a life coach.
A life coach helps clients reach their full potential. If you possess the qualities that I have outlined above, you are probably on the right path to your own personal fulfilment.
Becoming a life coach is a more simple process than you would imagine. First decide in which area of life coaching you would be best suited to specialize. There are coaches that focus on financial matters, relationships, time management, career counselling, and leadership skills. Once you’ve chosen the field that is the best match for you, seek training (even additional training) in that particular area.
Secondly, attend a life coaching seminar in order to get a full picture of how life coaching works. Most seminars give advice on how to reach goals and succeed in life. Pay particular attention to the way in which the coach interacts with the crowd.
Then, following the seminar, speak to the coach who conducted it. Ask him or her for advice on how to break into this career and on how to attract clients. A good coach will be honest and eager to help you. He or she won’t feel threatened by someone else wanting to join the ranks of life coaches.
Step four, sign up for a life coaching course. You can find them online or at local community colleges. These classes will provide the tools you need to become certified. Look for a course that will give you an automatic certification upon satisfactory completion of the course. Beware of self-study programs that charge big bucks for a kit. Many are just scams.
The last step is accreditation. Once you’ve finished a life coaching course, this step is particularly important. Many clients and businesses will not hire a life coach without credentials.
