Getting rid of annoyances!
One reason I knew I wanted to be a coaching was because my coach would say these one liners that would just stick! Later on I did some research and learned that the late Thomas Leonard was a life coaching skill called “messaging.” Messaging is how to deliver a positive, powerful statement that will stick in your brain and repeat whenever you need it. "How you do anything, is how you do everything." Is the one message that plays over and over in my head. What it means to me is if you are "pretending over here in your life, then your also probably pretending somewhere else in your life. Or you say your happy, when really your unhappy.
Advertisers have used the power of messages to sell their products. You’ll recognize one of advertising’s most effective messages in Nike’s slogan, “Just do it.” It’s short (three to five words is ideal), punchy, positive, motivational and memorable. However, over time and with repeated use, even a really good message can become a cliché and suddenly lose its punch—going in one ear and out the other without sticking.
To really be effective, a message has to feel new and fresh, and it must be motivating enough to inspire change in your behavior. This is one reason why life coaching is so powerful. It’s also why I only need 45 minutes every two weeks with my clients, yet my clients feel like they have me with them all the time. “ I can hear you” they say. So just know that after session 2-3 session, I will be constantly be with you! LOL
