Are You Asking Powerful Questions? Eliminate AWKWARD Conversations Once And For All!
Ever have an awkward conversation with a co-worker, client, friend, spouse, child, sibling... really anyone?
Awkward conversations include one or more of the following:
- Rambling one-sidedness
- The same stories over and over
- The same issues again and again
- Shallow skimming - chat about the weather followed by:
- Uncomfortable silence
- Whining
- Blaming
- The expectation of my coming up with an answer or resolution
I used to have conversations with one or more of these elements all the time.
Now, I just ask better questions. Powerful questions even.
In fact, when you have good coaching conversational tools in your tool belt, a lot more than your conversations can change. Awareness can be created. Destinies can be altered. Futures can be gained.
Here are just a few examples that have changed my life and the life of others around me.
- "Where do you want to be in 5 years?"
- "What’s holding you back?"
- "What would your life look like if 'that' was no longer an issue?
- "If you say 'Yes' to that, what are you saying 'No' to?
- "How will you know what to do next?"
- "What do you need to move toward your goals?"
- "How can you take the first, or next, step?"
- "What was the best thing about today?"
The coaching paradigm not only changed the way I help others move toward their goals, but it also changed how I live my life.
The coaching paradigm not only gave meaning to every conversation, but it also gave true connection to what could have been shallow interactions.
It freed me from needing to figure out what people should be doing next, or feeling like I needed to provide an answer for someone else’s future.
The coaching paradigm gives the opportunity for anyone actually desiring growth and change of pace to work through possibilities toward the potential within them.
Awkward, repeating, boring conversations are not a thing for me anymore.
Coaching helped me own my own life choices and help others to do the same.
