The first part of the self-coaching process is the ability to ask yourself powerful questions and answer them honestly. Sit with the answers, get curious and challenge yourself. Your mind will choose comfort over truth, so the ability to persevere is required. Then, when truth is discovered, the self-assessment about what you will do with that truth is the next step.
You have choice. You can stay the same, remain stuck or make changes. This is where actions, goals and accountability come in.
Top tip
The self-coaching journal is a great way to start those powerful questions.
Let's have a look at some activities that could represent the starting point of your self-coaching journey; a guide that will offer you not only the chance to focus on yourself, but also to explore your thoughts and feelings, enabling you to understand how to self-assess yourself, get clear on what you want and how you are going to achieve it.
List of Steps
Personal assessment
Start with the Personal Assessment questionnaire that serves as a quick pulse test to check your self-coaching starting point; the score will reveal who you are and what drives you at the moment.
Wheel of life
The Wheel of Life exercise will help you identify your development priorities and what success means to you. Through the self-coaching process, the wheel becomes your measure of balance, fulfilment and prioritisation.
Goal setting
Have a go at the Goal Setting activity as this will translate your self-coaching priorities into short term goals, enabling you to visualise the rewards that are waiting for you once you achieve those goals.
Beliefs and mindset
To really get to the bottom of an issue, you must explore your Beliefs and Mindset to detect your limiting beliefs, understand both your limiting and empowering beliefs and how to reframe them.
Being and doing
On your self-coaching journey, you will identify who you need to become and what you need to start doing to achieve your goals. To do this you must be aware of what you need to be and do, but equally what you need to stop being and stop doing.
Daily and weekly planners
The last step involves making some clear goals around those priorities and add rewards when you achieve each goal. The brochure below provides you with templates to plan to work so you can work to the plan.
