Focus on the present moment and the person's goals for the future from "summary" of Coach the Person, Not the Problem by Marcia Reynolds
When you are coaching someone, it is important to focus on the present moment. This means being fully present and engaged with the person in front of you. It involves listening attentively to what they are saying, observing their body language, and being aware of their emotions. By being fully present, you can better understand the person's thoughts, feelings, and motivations. At the same time, it is also essential to consider the person's goals for the future. This involves helping them clarify what they want to achieve and supporting them in creating a plan to reach those goals. By focusing on the person's goals for the future, you can help them stay motivated and committed to making positive changes in their life. By combining a focus on the present moment with consideration of the person's goals for the future, you can help them make progress and achieve their desired outcomes. This approach allows you to support the person in addressing their current challenges while also guiding them towards a more fulfilling and successful future. It is about balancing the immediate needs of the person with their long-term aspirations. When you focus on the present moment and the person's goals for the future, you are adopting a holistic and forward-thinking approach to coaching. This approach helps the person feel understood and supported in the present while also empowering them to take steps towards a brighter future. It is about being in tune with the person's needs and desires at all times, guiding them towards growth and transformation.
