Clients who are experiencing transition or dealing with problematic circumstances that may be emotional for them, find coaching seven days a week both comforting and beneficial. It takes a concerned and devoted individual to be a good coach. The following format when used on a daily basis provides the support and encouragement needed for an ADDer to get on track and stay on track. It fosters good habits daily, that grow and become new behavior, enabling the individual to cope with the challenges of day to day living much more effectively. The first step is to greet each new coaching experience with a warm hello and encouragement for the day.
Some coaches read inspirational sayings or daily meditations as part of their hello.
If it s a person to person coaching experience a secret handshake is a fun way to start, and of course, a hug is always a warm hello. Ask about yesterday and how it went. Focus on the successes, no matter how small they may have been. Make every outcome a learning experience. Always congratulate, and find the silver lining, even if yesterday was a big black cloud.
