My definition of a high performance life is one that ranks highly in contentment, joy, and contribution.
My friend Steven Kotler heads The Flow Research Collective, a group that is single-mindedly focused on unlocking peak performance.įor me, high performance doesn’t involve peaking in one area to the detriment of other areas. High performance coaches study these extraordinary people to determine how they do what they do, then translate that approach to clients so that they can apply it. They are 100% dedicated to optimizing peak performance. Think of iconic athletes like Usain Bolt or Michael Phelps, or executives like Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos. They are the best of the best, bringing it to the next level. High performance coaches work with executives and athletes who are driving for their peak performance. High performance coaching is a specialty within personal coaching / life coaching, although most high performance coaches I know would cringe at the idea of being called a life coach. Then meet with a couple of coaches for an introductory session and determine who is the best fit for you. That’s why, when hiring a coach it’s important to do your research research the background, education and experience of your coach to determine if that coach is a good fit for you. Since coaching in the United States is not yet regulated, anyone can call themselves a coach.
And yet, practitioners practice differently. There are many different titles for the same function – life coach, personal coach, and personal development coach are all the same thing. What’s a Personal Life Coach?Ī personal coach is the same as a personal life coach (see above for more).Īgain, same thing :-). We determine the best career objectives in this context how does your career support your life (not the other way around.Īs a personal coach, I work with you to better define your values, your meaning and impact, and create a structure for your personal development that leads to greater personal fulfillment. What this means is that we look at the person you want to be, the impact you want to have on the world, and perhaps the partner and parent you want to be, and the mental and physical health goals you have.
TASK COACH LIKE HOW TO
While I’m eager to support you with your career, the best way I know how to do that is to frame your career in the context of your life. Since your career is such a big part of your life, many people find their way to me with a Google search for career coach. The focus of my coaching practice is career coaching and life coaching. I help you connect the dots, and then take action on the insights you have. It is powerful to give words to ideas that are buried inside me.”Īs your personal coach, I'm on an excavating mission. I didn’t even know I was thinking that, but I am. After an introductory session, one client recently said, “It was amazing to hear myself say that out loud. I will ask you penetrating and provocative personal questions so that you can express new ideas. We review your values and see where you're hitting bullseye and where you may have strayed from your desired path. Together, we will identify what you want to hope for, strive for and ultimately create. I help clients make choices that are aligned with their values to derive more meaning from their lives. As a personal coach, I help you with your development without having an agenda for your outcome. As we get older we have teachers and coaches, sometimes therapists, and eventually, we have a boss or clients. When we're young, we have parents and caretakers who guide us.
