The First Phase: Achievement Assessment and ReviewIn this first phase of the program we
review in depth your personal history of achievement, accomplishment and success, starting
as far back as you can remember! These sessions focus your attention on the unique
abilities and traits that make your successes possible. These abilities are always
available to you, even if you've forgotten about them.
The Second Phase: Four-Quadrant
Goal Development
What we generally mean by
improvement is a 10-15% increase over current performance, often in one limited area. In
this phase, you assess your current status in all four of the vital areas of your life.
You will then be challenged to define what an order of magnitude improvement in each area
would look like.
- Financial / Work / Career:
- Relationships: Work and Personal:
- Physical / Health / Well-Being:
- Spiritual / Community / Personal
Development:
The Third Phase: Overcoming Resistance
During this part of the program I will be in
frequent contact with you. The pressure is intense to accomplish your challenging goals,
and there are times when the tasks seem impossible. The real reason for this has nothing
to do with your ability to produce the results that you want. There is usually a
predictable backsliding that occurs after significant progress has been made, and this
regression typically appears as resistance to further progress. The coach is with you,
with support, reminders, suggestions and resources to keep you focused and on track. The
coach is also there to hear complaints, whining, and excuses and to refocus you on the
core strengths that will help you accomplish your goals.
The Last Phase: Integration, Review, Future
Planning
Looking back, it may seem impossible that you
have come so far so quickly. Planning what you will do to maintain the changes is very
important. Again, the natural backsliding tendency can still appear, and it is vital to
learn to recognize it and manage it consistently as part of your future growth and
development.
