Does it ever seem like the whole world is against you? Nothings seems to be working, but you don’t know why.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is a common challenge that points\u00a0to\u00a0an important life coaching skill. Sometimes, the obstacles that block our paths to\u00a0the best possible\u00a0life aren\u2019t caused by the outside world. Surprisingly, some obstacles are caused by our own selves \u2013 our own minds to be precise. There are two parts of the mind: the conscious and the subconscious.<\/p>\n

The conscious mind is responsible for the many things you choose to do, whether it\u2019s deciding to take the bus, brush your teeth or watch a movie. The subconscious on the other hand, is the part you are not aware of, and\u00a0unknown\u00a0to you, it\u00a0controls much of your behavior.<\/p>\n

Here’s an example.<\/h2>\n

When you first learn how to drive a car, your conscious mind is doing most of the work. You\u2019re thinking about pressing the clutch when changing gears, steering the wheel properly so you won\u2019t crash and hitting on the brakes when you\u2019re going too fast.<\/p>\n

After a while, driving takes less and less of your attention. Until finally, it\u2019s like you\u2019re on autopilot when you drive. You don\u2019t need to think about every move. Why is this so? Your unconscious, which is much like a computer running programs, takes over. It has successfully been programmed by the conscious part of your mind.<\/p>\n

Do you engage in Negative Self-talk?<\/h2>\n

This is where unconscious programming becomes critical. If you are telling yourself \u201cI can\u2019t do this\u201d or \u201cI\u2019ll never be good enough,\u201d what are you producing? The repetition of these kinds of thoughts creates negative programming in your subconscious mind. It has learned to dwell on negative thoughts without you even being aware. And if you understand the power of your thoughts, this is not good. As Ralph Waldo Emerson suggested,<\/p>\n

“You become what you think about all day long.”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

This is an essential key for becoming an effective life coach, because by focusing on what you want rather than on what you don’t want, you\u00a0are well on the way to creating a wonderful life. And being the best coach with clients starts with you. You can’t take others to places you haven’t gone yourself.<\/p>\n

Two\u00a0ways to reprogram your subconscious (and assist your coaching clients in making the best use of their minds)\u00a0is to engage in positive self-talk and visualize your new positive life as if it’s yours now. Through positive self-talk, you also build confidence in the life you are creating. By visualizing your new positive life, you are\u00a0envisioning a dream\u00a0you can work toward and accomplish.<\/p>\n

Subconscious Reprogramming is critical to your success as a life coach<\/strong>\u00a0because you\u2019re reprogramming your mind to the conditions that will enable you (and your clients)\u00a0to stay positive, even \u00a0in challenging situations, and continue forward to make your dreams come true.<\/p>\n
