Breakthrough - A coaching thought!

Breakthrough by Paul Lemberg.

There is a trick to gaining terrific satisfaction in your business and your life. William Shakespeare summed it up nicely:"This above all: to thine own self be true."

Please subscribe to our free coaching tips newsletter if you would like to receive a monthly coaching tip. Or visit www.execoach.net if you would like a business or executive coach.

First, figure out who you are in the world, and be that person, really, really, well. Master being that person.

Determine the key distinctions of being you. Then make your business an extension of yourself – have it realize your purpose, your vision, your values, and your standards at their highest level.

When your venture is an integral expression of your core being, you are joyously compelled to do everything necessary to bring it to fruition. Can you think of a better guarantee of success? If who you currently are isn’t satisfying to you, a business fulfilling that you won’t be either.

And while it is still possible for it to be a financial success, it is likely not to be any fun, and not something you will want to do for very long. If that is the case, your next step is to choose who you do want to be. Do a gap analysis – list the important differences between how you manifest yourself in the world now, and how you want to manifest.

Develop “creative tension” between these two states, map a path from one to the next, and take concentrated action to bring that new person into existence. Master being that person, and make your operation an extension of that person.

The personal route to meaningful success is to and through your highest expression...Be the very best of who you are going to be in the world.

The Business NLP provider of choice

1st Half of CD/Tape 1:

Vowels, Consonants & Tonality How do vowels and consonants help us achieve, maintain and increase rapport? What can we do with vowels and consonants, differently, to dramatically enhance the qualities of our voice that make us more magnetic with other people?

This side helps you build in greater smoothness of dynamic shifts in your voice qualities. Part of having an irresistible voice is learning how to speak in highly dynamic ways, which can include a lot of shifting and changing of voice qualities.

This can be done in subtle ways, too, it doesn't necessarily mean being outrageous!

2nd Half of CD/Tape 1:

Variance in Resonance Location Reteach yourself how sound is actually made with your lungs, throat, mouth and nose. Learn to isolate the feelings associated with making wonderful sounds, as well as with making less-than-wonderful sounds.

We'll experientially teach your vocal-instrument that what feels good, sounds good too.We'll take you to the extremes of a variety of mouth positions, make very funny noises, laugh about them, and then find the optimal middle point for your most irresistible voice qualities.

You'll be teaching yourself how to speak optimally first by exploring the "no-no's" of making vocal sounds, then leading you into subtly achieving very warm and resonant qualities.


What's on the Second CD?

1st Half of CD/Tape 2: Wave Modulation, Command Tone Up/Down

Once you've learned more about the physical structures of high-quality & resonant voices, and begun already to improve your voice, in this section you'll learn how to more effectively use tonal shifts and other techniques to delineate your communication.

Through the study of Neuro-Linguistic Programming, you learn techniques for creating more influential communication. Some examples of these types of techniques are "embedded commands" and "analog marking." We'll explore a variety of ways to effectively use these techniques using tonality & rhythm shifts, and other voice effects.

2nd Half of CD/Tape 2: The Dual-Tone Voice!

This is the flagship section of the set! Jonathan modeled his own concurrent hum-&-whistle sounds, the auditory effects of a Dual Hypnotic Induction, dual-binaural beats of a mind machine, and several other techniques to teach you a new way to think about how to produce a strangely irresistible voice.

The result is a voice that can resonate with two different tones, concurrently -- and you'll be amazed to find that with some effort, you'll be able to modulate each tone INDEPENDENTLY.

This is very similar to the effects Tibetan Monks achieve with their chanting methods, but more subtle.Some people can consciously hear it... some people can't. More likely, as you listen to this section, you will alternate between being able to hear it easily and not being sure if you do or do not.

When you use this technique, people will phase in & out of wondering if they're hearing anything unusual as you speak to them, which can keep them focusing more consciously on the structure of your language, as opposed to the content... which can make them much more responsive to your influential suggestions!

Whether you can hear the technique all the time or only part of the time, when you're doing it, you'll know... there is a distinct set of feelings that you'll experience that lets you know you're in the flow of making the effect happen.

Why coaching works

The most successful teams and individuals have coaches, this articles discusses some of the reason that coaching works.

Please subscribe to our free coaching tips newsletter if you would like to receive a monthly coaching tip. Or visit www.execoach.net if you would like a business or executive coach

If you're a coach or being coached it's useful idea to develop your own ideas as to why coaching works. As a coach it will both help you sell your services with more confidence and be a more effective coach.

As the person being coached it will help you choose and work with a coach better. For this article I'm defining a coach as someone who will help you clarify something you want and help you achieve it more quickly and with less effort.

This is not a comprehensive list; the idea is to trigger your own thoughts.

The client wants it to

Most clients will only take on a coach when they have already decided to make a change; however they are missing something to take the action needed. They may only need the space, frame and structure to put their own ideas in order. They may only need the space to get their feelings together.

Different perspective

Another person gives a different perspective. Like we need two eyes to perceive depth another person who we trust and communicate with well can enable see a wider picture and behind some of the objects that may be temporarily blocking our vision.

Dare to Dream

A coach can challenge and empower us to develop and achieve empowering dreams. They can stop us giving up to easily. They can help us keep our dreams alive and healthy.

Rehearsal

A coach can help us rehearse a course of action. This can increase confidence, identify blocks and find answers and significantly shorten the time needed to complete the action.

Add resource

A coach can give us additional resource. This can range from a model or technique to address an issue, a new attitude or emotional response, a new perspective, a case study or simply a piece of information.

Act as a role model

A coach may have started a successful company, entered a new market, handled a job loss, managed a plant closure, stopped smoking etc. In these cases the coach may act as a role model for their client. It's often easier if you know someone else has gone before.

Give feedback

A coach can give honest and straight feedback on performance giving the client the opportunity to act or not. Often feedback without interpretation is the most useful feedback.

Reveal hidden self

A stronger version of giving feedback; gaining insight of areas of ourselves that we are unaware off can lead to tremendous personal growth. - However it's normally only appropriate (and commercially wise) to give such feedback when specifically asked.

Human connection

People communicate in many ways; some of which we are not conscious of. Two people who communicate in an honest way will learn more from each other than either realise.

A good coach will normally be significantly better at these activities than anyone else in the company structure in that they are fully focused on the client's interests and ( although aware of ) not part of the politics.
