Coaching

Our world, our living and working environment is changing fast. New products, laws, services and ways of doing things are all changing at a speed never seen before. When President Sarkozy took office as the leader of France, the press media complained that he was doing and changing so much so fast. They could not cope with the support information that was being pumped out from his office. They found that working in their habitual way they had no time to check, verify or write their critique. The greater problem was that as soon as they had written an article for press or TV it was already out of date and they felt abused, stressed and certainly constantly wrong footed by the president.

The French press media were so set in their ways of believing they held the power they could not change. All they could do was complain and demand that President Sarkozy change and slow down so they could catch-up.

It may be possible to try and slow the President of France down, it is certainly not possible to slow the world or the rate of change down.

So what is the solution and how do we get ahead of this express train that shows no signs of slowing? In fact the 2008 / 2009 financial crisis has accelerated it beyond all expectations.

The rub, friction and the stress is a result of the changes more than the speed. Why do changes cause stress? The answer is that our behaviours (skills), expectations, beliefs and values have become disconnected, or redundant relative to the changed need.  That means that to be in control of our lives, progress and happiness, it is essential to change with the times. That means choosing and changing the old for new more appropriate beliefs, values, behaviours and thinking patterns. The reason why that need becomes stressful is because mostly we do not know how to change beliefs, values or thinking patterns. The result is that we keep trying to fit the old round peg behaviour into a new square hole requirement.

This is something we have been used to doing gradually over a period of change. Being faced with so many new demands is where we begin developing resistances. As you know resistance is to slow things down. The problem is that as the world cannot be slowed that means we become frustrated, angry also having a feeling of being abused.

Life and performance coaching is about finding the way to create the changes necessary for more appropriate thinking strategies without creating internal frictions that results in emotional and other forms of stress.

Performance coaching is like discovering there is another choice of gearbox in your car. More than this you discover that your car also has a convertible control. By pressing the right buttons your saloon car converts into an open air sports model. You may also discover there is a button that if pressed activates the engine superchargers. By pressing these buttons your sedate car turns into a high power sports model that is more than capable of matching the pace and speed of the track. The result is that you have new confidence, new capabilities and new performance. This results in you naturally being at ease, happy and your life is moving ahead very satisfactorily.

The Phoenix Solution is an integrated system of coaching that introduces and builds new thinking patterns and strategies appropriate for your situation. This is where the training and mentoring in integrated with the coaching.

The new beliefs, values, behaviours and thinking patterns that you choose yourself are the ones that you feel fit the situation and with which you feel comfortable. Like that new pair of shoes you have desired and just bought, they are often a little stiff or tight until you and the new shoes have moulded together.

Creating the new life you want is very special as it is unique to you thus, must be tailor made to your requirements. In the Phoenix Solution there is no one size fit all. Every aspect is carefully thought through before the process of change is started.

For this reason there is no one price for all situations. If you want a quality product then be prepared to value that correctly. This world is full of free give a ways, none of those have any quality or real value.
