One of my classmates is a huge fan of Tony Robbins and last year she tried to get me to come along to one of his lectures. It was a joint session with Richard Branson. I couldn't make it but Branson was the main reason I wanted to go. For some reason Tony Robbins didn't ring a bell, I'd only ever seen him in Shallow Hal and I wasn't impressed!
So earlier this week I was a bit intrigued when I saw an ad online for a "Learn to be a Life Coach" class offered by Tony Robbins. Clicked on the link and it was actually pretty cool! The past few weeks I've had this intuitive feeling tell me I'm still missing a skill that I'll need for my healing and readings practice in the future. Essentially what I want to learn is how to "talk" to people about their problems without confusing or shocking them.
Telling clients exactly what I see can be a shock to their systems. I ascribe to the Socratic method, i.e. gently guide and probe with questions and let them stumble upon the answer. This is what the Tony Robbins life coaching class appears to be about, with a dose of human psychology thrown in.
So far I've only signed up for a 5 hour free teaser. Its an online class so it would be convenient, still don't know how much it costs and how long it lasts. I'll keep you posted. I think this would be a very cool skill to acquire, and it could really boost my psychic and tarot readings. The main reason I give them is to help people find their way, and I think "Intuitive Life Coaching" sounds very appealing, do you?
Just don't get too deep into fancy names, one might loose his focus on the really important stuff :).
ReplyDeleteIt's like with "Chief Executive Officer For Environmental Management" used to describe a cleaning services job ad :P.
Any name is great as long as you feel OK with it, so if you like "Intuitive Life Choach", then go for it :D
Hi Nathan.... I was thinking Intuitive Life Coach and Healer =) Its not so much about the fancy name as it is describing what I see myself doing. The job description and title will come later ...
ReplyDeleteSounds a great idea and a usufull one :) keep us posted! xxx
ReplyDeleteThank you! I"m going to put it on hold for a few months while I get my healing and psychic reading business up and running. Then I might start with a few coaching classes to see how I like it. It does had a nice ring to it, though =)
