How coaching can help you change your beliefs

Sometimes your beliefs can be so limiting that they hold you back from reaching your full potential, and they can be so deeply rooted within you that they shape how you perceive and interact with the world around you.?

Coaching can help you work out where your beliefs have come from and how they might be affecting your thoughts, behaviours, and decisions. Coaches are there to challenge your assumptions and beliefs in a non-judgemental way, and with the right discussions, they can help you identify which beliefs are no longer serving you and help you to see things from other angles that might benefit you more.

Changing your beliefs is not an easy process?

There will likely be a lot of pushback from your brain because it will tell you that you’ve had this belief forever and it is therefore the right one. A good coach will provide positive reinforcement and encouragement as you challenge and change your beliefs. Together, you can explore how changing them might lead to different behaviours that align with your goals which will help to reinforce the new beliefs you're forming

There will be setbacks

Coaches can help you see challenges and setbacks as opportunities for learning and growth. They can also provide a sense of accountability as you're more likely to work more seriously on changing your beliefs when you have regular check-ins and discussions with someone who is dedicated to your progress.?

It might feel a bit woo!

Your coach might guide you through visualisation exercises and get you to use positive affirmations to enable you to mentally rehearse the outcomes you desire and create a more positive self-image. The more you tell yourself something, the more likely you are to believe it.

Remember, changes don’t happen overnight?

This is a gradual process and your coach will understand that you’ll need to take small steps to make it less overwhelming and more successful. It will require commitment, patience and effort on your behalf, but with the right help in navigating you through the process, you are far more likely to succeed with your belief changing, and then the sky’s your limit!?
