Why Does Everyone Keep Going On About Online Life Coaching Nowadays?
Simply put – because it works! The fact of today’s living is that certainly the younger generations spend half their lives – so it seems – online. And even the technophobic generations who didn’t grow up online, or with the computers and internet are forced to catch up even if not exactly for half their lives!
Be it a pure coincidence or not, life coaching [online] has also become more than just a trendy buzzword over the course of the past few years. And since people will always be creative and generate options, speculate what’s possible, and want to do what nobody else has done so far, some clever individual came up with the combination of online life coaching.
Well, while some creative combinations are not as good as are others, that of online life coaching can’t be any other than a win-win. Its practicalities reach far beyond the obvious points of saving time, costs, and energy of traveling to the place of coaching. The deeper advantages that my online coaching clients have reported to me are:
- that coaching can take place without geographical restrictions
- that it can be even cheaper than telephone coaching [if both my client and I have some incredible software such as Skype]
- that for some people, especially the more minimalistic types who wish to have everything under one umbrella, online coaching is even more convenient than telephone coaching, because they don’t even have to use two separate devices – it’s all in one computer!
- that online coaching, just as well as telephone coaching, will remove the visual distractions of seeing the coach [and other details that come with the coach, such as what she is wearing etc.] from the perspective of the more visual clients which will allow the clients to concentrate more on their thinking and what they wish to say
Another important form of online coaching is the written one via emails. Some clients prefer to receive highlights from each coaching session written up in emails so that they can remind themselves of the session’s content anytime they wish – for the rest of their lives! Other clients prefer to use this written form of online coaching for simply catching any thoughts that resonate with them by writing it down in an email or having it reported back to them in textual form.
Online coaching is also invaluably advantageous for one more reason: that of being able to easily share text files such as other people’s articles, web links, videos, images, and audio files such as telephone seminars that have been recorded online, or podcasts. To even more benefit, it takes much less time off the coaching session to send a file between the coach and client via a couple of clicks then spend a couple of precious – and expensive – minutes of the coaching session describing the files in words. The file can then be viewed instantly and its content can be immediately incorporated into the agenda of the life coaching session. No need to remember to send it later, no need for putting the action of sending the file on a to do list.
Once again, online life coachiing is very popular simply because it works and I’m sure it’ll enjoy only more popularity in the years ahead.
