Why did you choose coaching?
”Coaching was introduced to my life at a perfect time; because my life transformed from being a life of a musician to a combination between music and business – the timing has been just perfect. I got better tools to work with and at the same time I am more conscious about what my ”new” life must imply.
Consciousness, structure, energy and a belief on that I can achieve my goals".
Goals and plans, what was achieved and which was not?
”I am very happy having obtained the overriding goal about where I am going in life. I became more aware about what I want and what I want to put on the shelves in my life – to be a happier and better human being.
The sentence:” You have to stage your own life to become master of yourself” means a lot in my life now that I am much more living an active life (not concerning sports though!) I am to a lesser degree dependent on other people. I discovered that to decide for myself, that to start things in life that come from energy and passion, is so much more satisfying than to be a slave of other peoples opinions.
The road maybe filled with holes and bumps, but is much more satisfying!
On the more practical level I feel that I am better to structure my everyday life. I started to overcome some stupid fear concerning IT – and it feels good. I think I have become better to overlook things – that is to look at things in a more matter-of-fact attitude and less emotional; to see things as small boxes which must be dealt with - instead of a hotchpotch of confused problems.
I feel that I have been shelving the Spanish guitar. I wanted to focus more on it – now it happens on the 22th of March – and then I do hope it will bring some energy back!"
What did you learn about yourself?
"I learned that if you really want something, you can make it! A cliché!! but none the less I have experienced that you decide 100 % for yourself in which direction you want your life to go. This direction is among other things driven by inspiration, passion, curiosity and reflection, plus the urge to have a free life economically as well as creatively.
I experienced a strengthened self-confidence about what I want and don´t want. The belief that the right things will happen, has been strengthened."
What did you learn about setting a goal?
”Goals are important because it provides you with an overview focus further on in life – in the long term as well as the short term. Your goals should come from your passion and your dreams. Which means setting a goal for yourself gives you a direction instead of groping in the dark. In this way you have a fix-point to get to – instead of one week takes the other.”
Did you obtain personal ROI (Return Of Investment) regarding time/expenses?
”Even if I could have developed myself more on some issues, I am very happy about how the coaching course has influenced my life. I absolutely feel that I have obtained Return Of Investment.
The most important thing that has happened to me is definitely that I found a better way in life, primarily in connection with my job; this clarification has helped to set better goals in life . Distinctness regarding ones talents and passion give a much clearer focus."
How has the period of Coaching been?
”It felt very easy to be coached. It has not been difficult for me to open up – even for less popular subjects! I felt very privileged to be coached because everything is about myself. I am in the center, like I am in my life, too, - it has been a luxury!
It feels good when you discover things that can optimize your life – whether it is about your working life or in your private life. I suppose it is these tools I mentioned earlier.”
Anything else you want to say?
"I am thanking you for a very, very nice coaching course! Simultaneously it has been so good to get to know you better – you are practically family! At this point I can already tell you that I would love to be coached again – maybe in a couple of months or so. And as I said, I have been extremely happy with my coach, I have no reason at all to find a new ....."
