To me, psychologist Carl Rogers says it best: ‘The degree to which I can create relationships which facilitate the growth of others as separate persons, is a measure of the growth I have achieved in myself.’
Who we are being (in a session and in life) is doing most of the work. If we believe ourselves to be incapable of changing our futures, no matter the inspiring phrases that come out of our mouths, clients will feel the negative energy overshadowing the words.
We humans need to see an example before we believe something is actually possible.
‘Do I need to be better?’ ‘Will I be able to continue growing? ‘Imagine how far I could take my clients when I go further myself’
To ensure I’m going as far as I can (so I can take my clients there) I must be a client myself. I must do the work that I ask from my clients.
I must radiate the possibility I ask them to entertain.
The coach's spirit of growth and belief in his own potential overflows, it overflows abundantly, so the client can borrow some of it and cultivate more of it themself.
All of this inspires me greatly Rik.
