5 Signs You Need A Life Coach

The following are 5 signs you need a life coach. If you have one or two, you need to pay attention and take care of yourself before you burn out completely. But if you have all five, you should seriously consider taking action, because you are in dire need of help and guidance.

SIGNS OF BURNOUT

You can tell you are burnt out, when you feel:

➤ You are losing meaning and orientation in life.
➤ Constantly confused and tired. Days become dull and grey.
➤ Lack of desire to do anything. You find it hard to follow through with your plans.
➤ Achieving the intended goal feels impossible. And you begin to feel useless and helpless.
➤ The feeling that something is missing. You become forgetful and absent-minded.

Stress will absorb you. Worry and anxiety will haunt you. Unless you catch it time and do something about it.

WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN?

The world around us is constantly changing and evolving. As a result, it can get quite difficult to keep up. In the pursuit of different things, and the future, we drive ourselves into a dead end. We get tired, mismanage time and exhaust abilities, then begin to miss out on important things and opportunities in our personal life, and in business. Our attempts to catch up with what we lost and missed out on end up in failures, and soon we feel overwhelmed by anxiety and depression. Unfortunately, if we keep doing the same thing over and over, we lose sight of our goal and direction, and we get caught up in a loop. This can have some dangerous consequences for our emotional, mental and physical health. That is why, it is important to realize that sometimes we need someone to support us, keep us focused and guide us.

NO PURPOSE OR CONCERN IS TOO TRIVIAL TO SEEK GUIDANCE

If you are going through any of the emotions mentioned above, then you lack emotional and intellectual support in your life. Obviously, you should not wait till you are burned out. Even though, you might think it is not important, that it is not for you, and that people need help only for the big stuff. The truth is everyone needs to have a support system in place, to be able to function, and develop the capabilities and necessary skills to be productive and successful.

So, do not hesitate to ask for help. Because it is always easier to deal with a problem, while it is still in its infancy. The best thing you can do for yourself, is to invest in yourself and get professional help. Learn to redirect your life, to be fluid and to be happier.

PURE FACTS

Having a life coach is essential for personal and professional growth. However, a life coach is not a magician, who will heal all emotional pain, and make all your problems disappear. Coaching is not a quick-acting pill.

It takes time, hard work and absolute commitment. A coach doesn’t “fix” a person, but simply directs, holds them accountable and will not let them lose sight of their goal. Do not wait for a miracle or magic to happen. You can make the magic happen, you can create your own miracle. And you can start doing it today.
