COACHING DISCIPLINE

Sometimes, just sometimes, when people come for coaching and they are serious about achieving certain outcomes, they are then shocked— stunned— surprised — and even frustrated to discover that they have to learn to become disciplined in order to get what they want. “Disciplined? Why do I have to become disciplined? I’m a free spirit, I like doing my own thing!” Perhaps they assume that all they need to do is to dream, to really and truly dream, and their highest intentions will make it so. Perhaps they have bought into the myth of positive affirmation and assume that’s all they need to do. Perhaps they assume that they just don’t know the right strategy, and once they get it, everything will work out.
