Resistance To Getting Coaching: Part 1 of 2

There can be a lot of resistance, inner resistance, to getting coached. There could be some outer resistance as well. I mean, it is kind of trendy. Everybody on the internet these days is a coach, a marketing guru or a law of attraction expert. Getting coach can be a bit trendy, but coaching really does go way beyond the trends. Something deep really does happen. So, the external resistance is there. People could say to you, Geez that really is silly, everybody is doing that.

The main resistance is the internal resistance, the feeling of reluctance to really want to take the step to get life coaching. Can I really afford it? Does this mean I am weak, because I cant figure it out myself? There is all sorts of emotional resistance to getting help, actually taking the step to help yourself move forward. You may have noticed that any time in your life when you have considered getting coaching, therapy or some type of assistance, there may have been some sort of inner resistance to doing it. Often times, it simply feels like an embarrassment. We feel embarrassed that we need help, embarrassed that we have a problem we cant solve on our own. After all, we should be able to solve all of our problems on our own, right?

Thats nonsense!! We all need assistance from time to time. Some need more than others. Some of us need a little nudge and others need a really big push. So, there is nothing really to be embarrassed about when asking for help and getting coached. Now, I know by my saying that, it really wont have any affect on the embarrassment you may be feeling right now about your decision to get coached. Just notice that it is there and know that you can move forward, even though you may have that feeling. You can make a choice in your best interest, even though there is some inner resistance. Nothing you are reading here is going to make that inner resistance go away. But, if you become conscious of it, aware of it and recognize it for what it is, you will begin to innately draw on your power to move past it. Once you see that you have this inner resistance, this block, you can make great choices and move forward anyway.

Another form of resistance that can get in the way is the reluctance to appear vulnerable. The desire for safety is the most important thing in the human mechanism. We value safety above all else. We even value safety more than freedom. If we put ourselves in any position that appears that it is going to make us vulnerable, there will be a very natural resistance to whatever we are doing. Even if ultimately the steps we are taking are going to make us less vulnerable, the vulnerability of this moment right now is going to seem very powerful.

The point of a life coach isnt to try to fix you. It isnt to try to find all these problems and things that are wrong with you. The whole job is to just get you to see the obstacles are there and own them. Then, the magic starts. Once you begin to own them, they begin to get less intense, less powerful, because you see them for what they are.
