Doing - coaching is about doing: Defining goals and developing plans to achieve these goals. And in our doing we want to have some success characteristics involved. We want to be determined, enthusiastic, and persuasive not only to others about our goals, but also ourselves. If we don’t believe, no one else will. Our personal strength comes from believing in ourselves. We have a choice to develop the things that we want to achieve and then begin the change. And while change comes at us from all directions, we have the choice on how to react to the change as it hits us. We even have the opportunity to practice how things might affect us.
Doing is the personal movement that we want to have, to be continuously goal-oriented. As goal-oriented creatures we survive only when we have goals to achieve, no matter what they may be.
We also grow by understanding things around us by comprehending facts and meanings to interpret truths and realizations of what is good for us. We continually learn and adjust our thinking if we want to grow. When we stop growing, learning new truths about the world and who we are in the world, we lose our personal strength.
I told someone the other day that the truth changes, and they said yes their truth did change as they got older. Of course it does, and people who hold on to beliefs that no longer serve them or the people around them gain nothing. It may stop our doing, because we stop believing.
