If you are a charismatic and energetic person who wishes to help clients reach their full potential, life coaching could be the right career choice.
1)Decide which area to specialize in. It could be financial matters, career, counseling or honing leadership abilities.
2)Attend a life coaching seminar to get an idea of how life coaching works. Pay close attention to how the life coach interacts with the crowd. This is fine.
3)However, I believe that having a deeper understanding of how the conscious and unconscious mind works is a very important requisite in order to be a GREAT life coach. One can gain such an understanding after attending a NLP (Neuro Linguistics Programming) Practitioner course.
There are many providers and I would suggest that one looks for providers that are affiliated with these two organizations:- The American Board of NLP (ABNLP) and the NLP University(NLPU)
4)Speak to the NLP trainer following the seminar. Ask advice on how to break into the field and other tips for succeeding in your career.
5)Sign up for a NLP Practitioner course and maybe even the NLP Master Practitioner course.
6)Networking is important. Find other people in your business that can advice you on how to attract clients
Remember, life coaching is a journey and not an end. The rewards are great.
