Examples of What You’ll Gain Through Coaching…
What beliefs about life after sports are limiting you? Have you ever taken time to explore these? What would be different if you approached this journey differently? Why limit the incredible excitement of sports to just sports? Imagine a life even more exciting! You may be closer to that than you realize...
What do you really value? Ok... now what does that actually mean to you? Is it family? What about family do you value? Is it competition? What about competing do you really value? Getting clear on what you value allows you to live a life in alignment with those things. It helps you understand YOU! Have you ever taken time to dig into your values? What makes you, you?
Success! But what is "success?" Can my definition be different than yours? How you define success is important! If your definition of success is about some end state, then everyday you don't achieve that end state would be a "failure." What if this were different? What if success involved the journey, or process? What would be different for you?
First, what is it that you really want? Now, what do you really, really want? Big question, but not too big to start thinking about. What's stopping you from getting what you really, really want? Together, we'll find what's working and what's getting in your way. Why settle for anything less in this life!
"How you do anything is how you do everything." I remember hearing this so often as an athlete. But what does this really mean?
When you approach doing anything in life, you can choose to do so with a mastery orientation OR a performance orientation. As athletes, so much of what we do is about performance, the end result. A performance orientation means you care solely about outcomes, and therefore a lot of comparison, judgement, and trying to 'look good' exists. How is the performance orientation serving you today?
A mastery orientation means you care more about what you are doing than the outcome. There's a desire to continually develop into the best you can be. What's interesting is that if you focus less on results, you tend to get better results.
Together, we'll explore what mastery orientation means for YOU. When you have nothing to lose, how much better do you perform?
I am curious, how do you make new friends?
I, for the longest time, was never able to answer this. I'd say, "I have no clue! I've always had really close friends through sports." A sports team / organization provides an immediate community of brothers and sisters who share common interests and work towards a common goal. Is this limited to just sports?
How important is a community like this in your life?
To be clear, a coach is NOT a friend. However, in coaching we'll talk through the process of making new friends, of surrounding yourself in a community / communities that build you up. There's often many internal blocks that get in our way of making new friends. What would be different in your life if you had a group of people to lean on, and that made you better each day?
