The power of personal growth
Personal growth is literally your superpower. To achieve in life you have to do things you have never done before. You have to learn new things. You need the desire to achieve, you need commitment, you need consistency along with persistence and an unshakable belief in yourself.
Figuring out what you want to achieve or what it is you want from life means learning about yourself, about who you really are. When you start delving into this and making a plan for achieving your goals you are engaging in a process of personal growth. Personal growth is a powerful path to embark on. You’ll learn about yourself, you’ll uncover interests you never knew you had as well as hidden skills or talents. Personal growth unlocks your potential and literally allows you to ‘level up’ your life. The more you grow the more you will want to grow. The more you learn about yourself the more you will want to learn and develop.
How does coaching help with personal growth? A coach takes each client on a journey of getting to know themselves or rediscovering themselves. Sometimes life just keeps happening and we get caught in a cycle of just doing and not really being present or being with ourselves. A coach will bring you back to yourself. A coach can help you achieve clarity around what it is you want. We help our clients gain a deeper understanding of their values which helps them get to know themselves a bit more. We help our clients recognise and uncover their strengths and how to harness these to achieve. We help clients explore weaknesses - we all have weaknesses - and how we deal with these rather than hide or mask them.
We help clients to identify thought patterns or unhelpful beliefs that might be holding them back, as well as exploring habits and behaviours which can also hold us back or serve as blocks to achieving. Coaches also help clients to build their confidence and resilience. We are all naturally confident and resilient but sometimes life just happens and knocks us around a bit which can take a toll on resilience and confidence. All of these processes lead to personal growth. A growth that can be so profound for some people as it builds their foundation for meaningful change in their lives.
All of the above provide the building blocks for personal growth. And the amazing thing about personal growth is that we never stop growing because we never stop learning. I always say if we’re not learning we’re not living. If you want to explore your own unique path to learning, achieving and levelling up click here for a free consultation.
