We all need a mentor or guide from time to time, so I have decided to work with a life coach. It’s a weird thing for me. I don’t talk about myself easily and I am much more comfortable helping friends work through their stuff.
In fact, I “coach” others on an informal basis often getting many calls, emails or texts a day to discuss other people’s current situations. I love doing it and I sometimes think that I help them come up with things that they may not get to on their own.
But now I think that I need someone to do that for me. I am blessed to have so many close friends, so with no offense intended to anyone, I need an outsider’s neutral opinion. I need to talk to someone that has no vested interest in me and has not been there through it all.
Weird thought, isn’t it?When you really try and figure out your life goals and who you are vs. who you want to be… you go to a stranger. But, when you need to get down to the real stuff you need to work with someone who can call your bluff.
This should be an interesting experiment. I am excited about the possibilities. I’m hungry for change and ready to listen.OK Coach, give me your best shot!
