Many humans never put down to accomplish their desired goals, or never set their own goals to begin with, for the reason that they have a fear of disappointment or rejection. It could be that they don’t really think that they are able to accomplish this, or perhaps they wrongly think that if they basically tell themselves what they wish enough times, those ambitions will be achieved.
Hi Geraldo,
I agree. That’s why coaching is of such benefit to our clients (and to ourselves). Through coaching we help people first to find and define their goals and then to develop their own path towards those goals.
