Your Autumn tune-up

If you own a car, boat or aeroplane you will be well aware of the need for regular servicing, maintenance and a routine tune up. Engineers have an adage. ?If it ain't broke, don't fix it. This may hold good for a while but you know, in your heart of hearts, that if you ignore some basic requirements it will break and probably do so at a time that is inconvenient at best and dangerous at worst.

Nicola Forshaw, a professional coach of Wirral explained this to us recently. She was telling us about a new service that she offers her clients. ?Even my long term clients, who already know how coaching can transform their lives, sometimes need a "tune up" after a few months. For people who haven't yet experienced the amazing results of coaching, this new tune up service offers a valuable introduction to the coaching process.

In a few one-hour telephone, or face to face conversations, at weekly intervals, Nicola invites her clients to review where they are now and where they want to be in the future. Together they create a strategy for getting to where they want to be and define the actions that will produce the desired results.

She is quick to point out that the coach is simply the catalyst. It is the client who makes the decisions and the commitment. For a great many, the weekly reporting back of progress is the spur that keeps them on target.

Nicola returns to the engineering analogy again. After a long summer, machinery is probably needing a good lubrication, a removal of accumulated debris and attention to the ravages of long, sunny days. Autumn is a great time for human engineering too. As the evenings grow darker and there are fewer outdoor distractions it is all too easy to lapse into evenings in front of the television. I just invite my clients to spend a few minutes a day on their own tune up needs. They are then better equipped to face any challenges that come their way and to create great new opportunities for themselves.
