26 Things Your Life Coach Would Tell You (if you had one)

Business woman life coach

Life coaches partner with healthy people (see #6) to take their lives from good to great. A part of this process involves telling you like it is (even if it hurts) and giving you a new perspective. A good coach will push you to become the person you said you wanted to become and to achieve the things you said you wanted to achieve. A good coach will keep you on track, redirect you when you’re off track and hold the vision for you when you’re ready to give up. Her words are powerful and cause you to think and then rethink some things. Here’s 26 things you would hear your life coach say to you in some variation if you actually had a life coach.

  1. “Taking personal accountability is a beautiful thing because it gives us complete control of our destinies.” – Heather Schuck
  2. “You will never find the real truth among people that are insecure or have egos to protect. Truth over time becomes either guarded or twisted as their perspective changes; it changes with the seasons of their shame, love, hope or pride.” – Shannon L. Alder
  3. “The very things we wish to avoid, neglect and flee from turn out to be the ‘prima materia’ from which all real growth comes.” – Andrew Harvey
  4. “There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that’s your own self.” – Aldous Huxley
  5. “Too often, people get stuck in a state of over-thinking, the result is that they never reach a decision.” – Steve Backley
  6. “Coaching doesn’t make sick people well…it helps healthly people become extra-ordinart.” – Thomas Leonard
  7. “Live your life with courageous integrity. Do the right thing, not the easy thing.”- Domonique Bertolucci
  8. “There is a big difference between being self-ist and being selfish —  putting yourself first doesn’t mean  you have to put everyone else last.” – Domonique Bertolucci
  9. “What do you dream that people will say about you and your life?” – Ken Poirot
  10. “Optimism is the one quality more associated with success and happiness than any other.” –  Brian Tracy
  11. “Until you make peace with who you are, you’ll never be content with what you have.” – Doris Mortman
  12. “We only become what we are by the radical and deep-seated refusal of that which others have made of us.” – Jean-Paul Sartre
  13. “The more you talk about it, rehash it, rethink it, cross analyze it, debate it, respond to it, get paranoid about it, compete with it, complain about it, immortalize it, cry over it, kick it, defame it, stalk it, gossip about it, pray over it, put it down or dissect its motives it continues to rot in your brain. It is dead. It is over. It is gone. It is done. It is time to bury it because it is smelling up your life and no one wants to be near your rotted corpse of memories and decaying attitude. Be the funeral director of your life and bury that thing!” – Shannon L. Alder
  14. “You can’t stop negative thoughts from coming in, but you can make sure they leave as quickly as they enter.” – Nkem Paul

  19. “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” – Eleanor Roosevelt

  24. “Any human anywhere will blossom in a hundred unexpected talents and capacities simply by being given the opportunity to do so.” – Doris Lessing
  25. “Progress always involves risk. You can’t steal second base and keep your foot on first.” – Frederick B. Wilcox
  26. “The bible says you have not because you ask now. I’d venture to say that you ask not because you see not. In order to reach your highest potential you have to be able to see big.” – Charlene Dior
