Tips For Coaches about self-awareness. Learn how to work with clients on this important topic.

1. Real Change Starts with Self-awareness
Tips For Life Coaches

2. People hire coaches because they are not satisfied
with something about themselves or their situation.
In the world of friendships and family everyone is
giving out advice, but rarely does it really help move
people forward on a consistent basis.
Coaches start by bringing awareness to the table.
They help clients look at the issue(s) from different
angles and then only when they are ready and really
understand the direction to move in do they
support their client in moving forward.

3. Is there something in your life
that you’d like to change?
You’d be hard-pressed to find
someone who didn’t answer
this question with an
emphatic “yes.”

4. Is there something in your life

6. “We cannot change what we will not see.”
Self-awareness is the acknowledgement of
not only our strengths, but our weaknesses
too. Being self-aware can be described as
paying attention to your body and feelings,
and then acting upon the information you
acquire.

7. If you’re one with your body, you’ll be able to read when
to say “no” to that last slice of pizza, or when to say “no”
to staying up past your bed time.
The more often you respect your body’s wishes, the better
in tune you will become. Self-awareness is a process, and
the more we practice it, the more proficient we become.

8. But how
does one
become
self-aware?

9. Reflect upon who you are and who you’d like to be. While it is without a doubt
important to understand your flaws and weaknesses, it’s equally important to
acknowledge your strengths.
The more apt you are at understanding yourself, the better you will be at
accepting yourself as you are or changing things you’d like to. Self-awareness
requires honesty with yourself and the courage to change things as you see fit.
By peering deep into your soul, you can uncover the many character traits that
make you unique. Make sure to acknowledge your positive traits. This will help
brace and encourage you in the face of less favorable traits to make sure you
don’t abandon hope in your new venture.
On the flipside, when you evaluate your strengths, don’t let your ego carry you
away. You must try to stay objective and form a realistic picture of yourself.
Until you face yourself with 100% truth, you cannot move forward to the person
you deserve to become.

10. Make note of your likes and dislikes. Too often, people make
life-altering decisions without acknowledging their deeply
rooted personal preferences.
Before you set out on your journey to fulfill your goals, make
sure you are aware of the things you enjoy the most, and
conversely, the things you’d rather not have in your life.

11. Face your inner self.
During this process, reflect upon your dreams, fears,
motivators, and stressors.
Ponder why you feel the way you do, and then start
working towards overcoming these inner struggles.

12. Ask the opinions of your loved ones. Talk to the people
who know you best and take their words to heart. Find out
what they see as your dominant character traits and
motivations. Ask them to be completely candid with you
and make sure you are prepared to hear their opinions.
More than likely, you aren’t the best judge of your own
character. Accept your loved ones’ views as a part of this
process. Considering their opinions alongside your own
analysis can help you form a full picture.

14. Self-awareness is a large part of self-esteem and
personal development. If you want to grow as a person,
make sure to begin with a candid and honest view of
who you are.

15. Self-awareness is a large part of self-esteem and
personal development. If you want to grow as a person,
make sure to begin with a candid and honest view of
who you are.
This honest self-
awareness will be
the most important
tool on your
journey to become
the best possible
version of yourself.

16. When clients make that first step to call us that is
the first signal that they are becoming more aware.
In the coach training process you will learn the most
productive ways to help your clients enhance their
awareness and make the best choices they can.
