Practical Steps to Work with a Life Purpose and Career Coach

Okay, how do you find this mystical Career Wizard? Well, it’s a lot like trying on the right pair of shoes; it has to feel right and fit properly when working with a coach. You need to find someone who resonates with your personality and understands your unique career journey. And then again, you may like the shoes, but if the quality and overall make and feel of the shoe isn’t as great, then you won’t feel good in it either. It’s really up to you, but you need to like the shoes before you can even try them on and wear them with some jeans or a dress or whatever.

And now, the most important part of having a Life Purpose And Career Coach is actually making the most of your coaching. It’s like brewing the perfect cup of coffee; you’ve got to have the right combination of all your beans of personality, coaching, commitment, and action. Be prepared to challenge yourself and old beliefs, and be open to seeing things in a different light. Your coach will help you, but you’ll need to be the one walking the road.
