STEP 1: What are you looking for?

The first step in getting personal coaching is to identify what you’re looking for; Therapeutic Counseling or Systemic Coaching. You may be wondering what the differences are between the two. I think Tom Dotz, the president of NLP Comprehensive, explained it best in his article “Making Millions Overnight – Not”;

“…a therapist being someone who’s dealing with remedial issues, fixing something that is broken, and a coach being someone who’s dealing with generative issues, that is making what already works work even better.”

Wikipedia.org defines Therapy as a remediation of a health problem, usually following a diagnosis. That is a fancy way of saying therapy is the process of fixing health problems, and in this case we’re looking at mental and emotional issues.

In comparison, Systemic Coaching is focused more towards creating a better life through building and improving on all the different components in order to provide you with more fun, freedom, power and love in all areas of your life. According to Ross Ashby’s Law of Requisite Variety, the person who’s most flexible (in regards to behaviors, beliefs, values, etc.) will ultimately control the world around them — this means that the only real blocks between you and complete success are your own limitations.

INDIVIDUAL COUNSELING

Everyone in this world faces problems in their lives at some point – that’s part of life. Some of us however are challenged at a much deeper level than we can handle on our own. Personal counseling should give you the opportunity to get unbiased feedback from someone outside your point-of-view, and that can help to open your perceptions to solutions you may not have realized were there. Individual Counseling at Soaring Success goes even further by helping you to understand what’s happening in your mind and body and teaching you ways to make real changes.

COUPLES THERAPY & FAMILY THERAPY

Relationships are a foundational part of our lives and good relationships go a long way to making life pleasurable. In couples therapy and family therapy we do relationship counseling to help everyone gain a deeper understanding of themselves and the other people involved. This helps people improve the situation for the moment, but we recognize that people are always growing and changing, so along with the therapeutic counseling you will also learn the most innovative ways to keep the lines of connection clear.

LIFE COACHING FOR PERSONAL EXCELLENCE

Excellence is defined as 1. exceptional quality or performance; 2. outstanding skill or ability. So, personal excellence is the best of your abilities at any given moment in time. With the commitment to personal growth Soaring Success can help you improve your personal excellence in order to create the perfect life and find completeness as a person.

EXECUTIVE COACHING & CAREER COACHING

Organizations and business have their own level of excellence which is dependant upon the people working together toward the same goals. For you, this means that having a job that truly makes you happy is about finding the company that meets your individual needs and style or shifting the dynamics of the organization you already belong to. Soaring Success can teach you the skills that will allow you to find real purpose and fulfillment in what you do for a living.

MARRIAGE & COUPLES COACHING

The ability to discover and work within someone else’s perceptions of life is a rare but power skill. Soaring Success can teach you how to do exactly that with a person you are romantically attracted to, offering you the opportunity to build a wonderful and loving relationship unlike any other.

STEP 2: How will you get it?

At Soaring Success we don’t believe it’s necessary for anyone to become dependent on a therapist or coach in order to make their life better. Rather, our focus is on providing you with the skills necessary to fix the problems you’re facing today and improve your life tomorrow. In this way we avoid the ‘old style’ mental health counseling where the client talks and the psychologist listens … we provide you with conscious behavior modification training where you’re directly involved in the process of your personal growth! We don’t just talk about it – you learn how to do something to fix it.

To help you overcome any and all limitations we offer a style of personal coaching which combines several modalities, consisting of; Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Reality Therapy, Choice Theory, Lead Management, Graphics Coaching, Tele-Coaching and Hypnotherapy.

PERSONAL COGNITIVE THERAPY

Soaring Success uses a few different well-know and well-respected types of therapeutic interventions, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Reality Therapy. In all these forms of one-on-one counseling we look at what’s concerning you now and what deeper beliefs and values are keeping you from overcoming the problem on your own. And be prepared, we don’t just talk about it – you are taught exactly what’s happening in your mind and what you can do to change it.

After we identify the source of your troubles it will be up to you how you want to shift those limitations and make your life better. At that point you will learn specific strategies and real techniques you can consciously practice to easily and effectively change your way of thinking and get out of those old, destructive patterns as soon as possible.

INDIVIDUAL GRAPHICS COACHING

Pictures and graphics can be used to make your experience of personal growth easier and more effective. Graphics coaching allows you to step back from your life and your problems and see the big picture. Some examples of graphics coaching is doing a Bio-Graffiti, which creates a historical record of your situation and life to help find the real problem patterns, or doing Graphical Goal Setting, which allows you to really clarify where you’re going in life and how you’ll get there.

The basic concept of graphics coaching uses a large 3′x10′ sheet of paper stretched out across a long wall and during the counseling process everything is graphically recorded on the wall so you can get it out and see it all at once. Graphics coaching gives you the opportunity to see how everything in your life is related, how your issues create negative patterns and what strengths you have that can help you overcome those problems. At the end of every appointment you are given any and all materials created during the session.

MARRIAGE & COUPLES COUNSELING

Two people in a romantic relationship create a very different and unique connection in comparison to friends and family. The process of two people coming together and building a deep and intimate love can have different effects on different individuals. The main reason is due to a difference in your values and beliefs and this will usually lead to arguments and other problems in the relationship.

In couples’ therapy we can sit down together and determine what each point-of-view is, how they compare and at what deeper level we can find a connection. Once you know how to determine the underlying issues behind problem patterns you can more easily understand and collaborate to find better solutions that work for both of you.

FAMILY COUNSELING

Television often shows a very idealistic, utopian version of family interactions, but seldom does it ever work out so easily and effortlessly. More common is the self-driven, bastardized version of family relations we call “dysfunctional”.

The source of the problems lay in the fact that all our deeper personal styles of communication and perceptions are so very different. The heart of the issue isn’t these differences but rather the lack of understanding and respect for those differences. In family therapy everyone learns to recognize, accept and utilize all our differences.

Soaring Success can help you take the first step in nourishing a better family environment by creating lines of connection between family members and developing positive, respectful communication. We will give you tangible steps everyone can use to acknowledge your opinions and set your boundaries while still allowing room for everyone to grow, be supportive and increase a sense of learning and connection every day.

GRAPHICS COACHING FOR COUPLES AND FAMILIES

Using pictures and graphics often makes it easier for everyone involved to gain much more understanding in any learning environment, including couples and family counseling. Graphics coaching uses a large 3′x10′ sheet of paper stretched out across a long wall, and uses a process that draws information from everyone involved. By putting everything up on a large wall-chart it can make the difficulties less personal and gives you the opportunity to see how everything connects.

Often this chance to step back and examine the whole situation in its entirety can make everyone’s experience of personal growth easier and more effective. At this point group collaboration can be used to find positive solutions to problems and issues while creating feelings of closeness and connection.

During the session the counselor leads everyone through the steps of identifying and recording all the values in the group while highlighting incongruencies and conflicts along the way. Bio-Graffiti is a way to review the history of the relationship to look for negative patterns and Graphical Goal Setting can help couples and families build a more agreeable plan for improving all the relationship(s) involved. At the end of every appointment you are given any and all charts created during the session.

PERSONAL EMPOWERMENT THROUGH COGNITIVE COACHING

The most common starting point for anyone looking to improve their life is to begin with them. Through cognitive coaching for personal excellence you can focus on finding what limitations have held you back from taking your life to a higher level and getting more of what you want.

Then, using your own personal values and beliefs, Soaring Success will build personal strategies designed specifically for you. By consciously practicing your mental exercise you can release your blocks, develop more inner resources and create new behavior patterns that will take your life from good to great!

GRAPHICS COACHING FOR PERSONAL SUCCESS

Growth in life can be likened to what Joseph Campbell called the “Hero’s Journey” (The Power of Myth, 1988). Considered in this way there are several things that stand between you and a better life; the challenges you face, the unknown, your purpose, the things you need to succeed and the people who surround you.

By using graphics coaching you can see your entire story drawn out on large 3′x10′ sheets of paper stretched out across a long wall. How does the novel of your life play out? From your past, through the present and into the future – Soaring Success can help you picture the life journey you want. At the end of every appointment you are given any and all materials created during the session.

PROFESSIONAL SUCCESS COACHING

Taking your business skills to a new level requires more than just taking courses and workshops – you need to incorporate those lessons into your habits and behaviors. To learn something without ever using it is the same as never learning it at all.

Allow Soaring Success to help you build real behavior patterns and mental strategies which use your own personal values as motivation for making the changes you want. If you want to make a new behavior stick then you need to make it your own and we can help you do exactly that.

CAREER CLARIFICATION WITH GRAPHICS COACHING

Don’t know what you want to be when you grow up? A proverb once said was, “Many things in life will catch your eye, but only a few will catch your heart …pursue those.” With that in mind Soaring Success can help you find true happiness in your job.

The process of graphic coaching uses a large 3′x10′ sheet of paper stretched out across a long wall and helps you pull out your deeper inner values and personal communication styles. Using those we can help you find something in life that brings you both money and joy. We truly believe that when you do what you love in life you’re certain to become a soaring success just like we have. Plus, at the end of every appointment you are given any and all materials created during the session so you can take them home and review, add and update them as you grow.

CONSCIOUSLY CREATING THE PERFECT RELATIONSHIP

Do you remember the first six months of your relationship? Most people believe that over time that deeper connection and joyous high will subside and there’s nothing you can do about it.

If you want to discover yourselves again and learn how to rediscover the love you once held for each other then Soaring Success can teach you small behavioral changes which will keep your relationship from becoming stagnant and boring.

A PICTURE PERFECT RELATIONSHIP WITH GRAPHICS COACHING

Graphic coaching for couples use several sheets of large 3′x10′ sheets of paper stretched out across a long wall. Each page is used to build a deeper understanding of each other, discover the strengths of your relationship, define your opportunities for growth and create a future together with all the love and happiness you hope for.

As a reminder of all the tools and techniques you learn, at the end of every session you’re given all material and wall charts that were created during the graphics coaching process.

STEP 3: What will it take to have it now?

If you want a life worth living it requires you to live it! — that means you need to commit to making your life the way you want it to be! Whatever your personal goals are; to let go of past hurts, overcome personal limits, make more money, have a better job, improve your love-life … no matter what you want you must first be willing to accept the responsibility of making the changes you desire.

There are 3 phases to this process:

1. CREATE CLARITY: build a goal that is congruent with all areas of yourself and your life … too many people create an outcome that is not in-line with who they are or what they believe.

2. GATHER AND BUILD RESOURCES: take an honest stock of your resources (both internal and external) and then work on finding, developing, learning, improving any and all personal skills, abilities and perceptions that will support you in achieving your desires in life as easily and effortlessly as possible!

3. TAKE ACTION: make a plan and make it happen by programming your unconscious mind to help you make your dreams come true … this way your goals become the actualized, self-fulfilling prophecies you created! — life happens, so why not be in charge?

AN ACCEPTABLE INVESTMENT OF TIME AND ENERGY

Having accepted the responsibility is only half the battle — You need to be willing to put in the effort!

Our style of personal coaching gives YOU the tools to make the life you want, and when putting the power in your hands we do everything we can to make it as smooth and easy of a transition to a better life as we possible can. To do this, you will occasionally be given small homework projects that will require 5-15 minutes a day to do for about a week.

Combine that with the fact that we will rarely need to surpass 10 sessions to help you build the tools you need to succeed — it’s possible your new and better life could be only weeks away.

AN AFFORDABLE INVESTMENT OF MONEY

Some people like to put all their energy towards one thing and work it until they’re done … however, that’s not always so easy when it comes to a person’s financial situation. For this reason we offer 30 minute appointments for only $30.00 … and even if you only do one session per month, the questions is: In a year from tomorrow, what will you wish that you had started today?

THE INITIATIVE TO TAKE YOUR FIRST STEP

The first step is to set up an Initial Consultation with us, at the end of which we can tell you exactly what we can offer you and approximately how many sessions it will take … and in the unlikely event that we are unable to help, the consultation would be free.
