Did You Realize That You Have to Help Yourself Before You Can Help Others?

In order to be a great life coach you need to have life coach training. Sure, you have experience in life and can help others but the training will help you to center yourself so that your own coaching is more effective for clients. You can’t help others unless you help yourself first.



Take a moment to center your thoughts and connect with spirit. Take some deep breaths in and feel the love and light

coming in to you, and filling you. On the out-breaths, let go of any distractions, any less than positive thoughts, anything that's not serving you in the highest good.

Now, imagine that there's a light in the center of your being, much like the pilot light on a furnace. As you continue to breathe, see that light amping up and literally taking the hand of the light from the universe, as together these two lights merge and do a dance of co-creation throughout your body, going into every cell, and the spaces between the cells, into your organs. With amped-up energy, feel that light infusing your DNA.

When you're ready, let that feeling and light expand outside the confines of your physical body, exponentially in all directions so that each one of our circles of love and light are inter-connected into this larger circle we call our inner teams, our guides, our angels – anyone at all who works with you for the highest good.

Now, take a moment to name three intentions you have for your business.

• What would you like to feel about your business?
• What would you like to believe about your business?
• What would you like to experience in your business?

Please take a moment and write your three intentions in a notebook. Make them simple, clear, and specific. What is a feeling, a belief, and an experience you would like to have concerning your business?

For example, "I want to feel competent, I want to believe that I am highly sought after to the point that I have a huge waiting list of clients who are willing and able to pay my fees, and I want to experience the astonished appreciation of at least one client each week".

As you begin your journey set aside regular moments to recall your three intentions.

Begin and end your day with these three focused thoughts in mind. When you return to them again and again over a period of days and weeks, you begin to create a focus that releases a Source of energy.

Now, imagine what it would be like if these three intentions happened. They can!

Serious Problems for Younger Folk - It's a big problem, people not taking you seriously. As a child, I was always much more mature, and I was on my own working as a writer in my teens - at the time most people were a sophomore in highschool. Still, I am considered very young to be doing what I do. These are a few things that I've found that have helped me out a lot. 1. Always act like a professional. No matter what comes up, always be a complete professional in the situation. If you act like you're an old pro, people stop looking at your numbers (Age), and start looking at your brains. 2. Consider dressing older. I'm not saying you need to wear ugly tweed, or your pants too high -- never wear a simple tee shirt, or tennis shoes. A suit and tie, or likewise, a tasteful skirt/jacket combo with light gold jewlery and low pumps, can make all the difference in the world. 3. Plan ahead. Always, always, always, have a game plan, a backup game plan, and possibly even a backup for your backup! Lots of young entrepreneurs like to rush into things - projects, meetings, presentations - without a plan, or thought to it at all. 4. Realize that you have a disadvantage. People, by nature, aren't going to take you seriously if you're just-out-of-high school, or just-out-of-college, with no real-world experience. You always have to be two-steps up from everyone else, and if you know this, you can use it to your advantage. And, of course, 5. Be an expert! Stay up late, know the lingo, know everything you can about your field. Go to every event you can find to learn and network, and stay on top of your game. Good luck! ~Marie
