Goal Setting
COLLAPSE
Some clients are able to know their goals several minutes into the sessions, while others take a while to understand what it is they wish to aim for. Despite the client, coaches enable people to set and reach goals (Collins, 2009). The relationship between a life coach and a client is based on communication, respect, and trust. These factors allow for a common ground for each party to work in making SMART goals obtainable. Coaches and clients work together to decipher the present in order to reach a better future. In order for a clear goal, a clear game plan will be the biggest tool in this. Despite short-term or long-range interests, clients are helping themselves develop their overall plan of action (Collins, 2009). Outside of clarifying the goal, goal setting comes in many different ways because of the several types of goals/clients available. An example of implementing a plan would be discussing any desired outcomes, deciding which goals to pursue, and arranging these agreed-on goals to get a good result (Collins, 2009). As progress is made, it is normal for some goals or tasks to be revised, skipped, or abandoned (Collins, 2009). The biggest challenge in goal setting would be keeping the. hope alive. Results do not always come easy and people do not always come patient, but life coaches who perform well in their respected jobs are still faced with continuously motivating and pushing their clients for the better (Collins, 2009).Life Coaching is About Empowering Clients and Assisting Them .

Setting goals is a major action of life coaching, assisting individuals to move forward with clarity and purpose to craft life-affirming transformations. Setting a goal may create a sense of focus, purpose and anticipation, even though for some clients,   goal setting might be a difficult process, making them focus on just a single goal or believing that they are incapable of committing themselves in setting the goal. For other clients, working towards attaining their goals offers the most benefit because they feel rewarded by seeing the milestones they have reached or the transformations in their lives. A coach can help clients to set SMART goals. Clients and coaches can then discuss the action/communication skills and mind skills the clients should improve on Throughout the coaching sessions, coaches respect clients as intellectual collaborators, who are eventually liable for offering the material for, and making the decision on the skills they should address (Collins, 2009).Life Coaching is About Empowering Clients and Assisting Them .
