Looking into #lifecoach #qualifications, they mentioned a book #TheCoachingManual by #JuliaStarr as a starter guide Looking at the reviews, they said it was a bit 'dry' compared to #TimeToThink by #NancyKline I #read both, I found it very useful, as it definitely made me change how I feel about #lifecoaching I noticed I didn't truly want it, I thought I was meant to But I learnt from the book #becomingbulletproof that some people felt #judged, so you unknowingly #coach the person onto editing the story of the events, thus basically being lied to A good life coach wouldn't strategise what to say, wouldn't say 'do this' & play 'fix it' #Working in #sales for 10 years, I can see why the 2 #careers would clash, my current job is getting the #sale done in as little time as possible.. 'Time to Think' is probably my #favouritebook so far, it said how we should stop interrupting when someone either: 1. Speaks 2. Cries 3. Vents in #anger Let them express their feelings, acknowledge them even if you disagree. Avoid giving your input, because people can have a #polarised response (they reject whatever you say) - only if they really ask for it We think we help by dismissing their frustration, but people wants to be heard I never felt comfortable with the term 'Life Coach', why should anyone need a coach? I adapted, questioned & changed the wording in the project. It's not about coaching, or learning. It's all about #improving, trying to be as #mindful as possible, to get the right message across The people from #UPW recommended the book #JudgmentDetox by #GabrielleBernstein - I thought it would be about not feeling bad if you are judged, but totally the opposite!! It says we #judge people because we separated from love. It's so painful that we cover up, judging people Now I am able to understand why I was being judged, I can see it with #compassion instead of #resentment I will also #vow to shut my #judgmental mind, live & let people live has always been my motto (b4 I wanted to fix the world at least!) ☺️ I am looking forward to reading it all, I'll share the best bits here as usual #alwayslearning 😃 (at Brighton and Hove) https://www.instagram.com/p/CH6R7c8Hwzm/?igshid=t5w49nf6z2f5

http://www.thecoachingmanual.com/ Visit the site to see how coaches of all levels can "Get the knowledge" and "Pass it on". The Coaching Manual is a unique online resource crammed with high quality, user-friendly videos and other resources, ideal for football coaches of all levels, from parents assisting Sunday morning "kickabouts" to qualified coaches. Our aim is simple. We want to provide the grassroots youth football coach with all of the skills and knowledge he or she needs to improve their own ability and that of the children they coach. "Grassroots", a definition: "1. the ordinary people in a community 2. basis of something: the origin, basis, fundamental aim". Grassroots football is so important to us. From players to parents, to teachers and qualified coaches, we form a community of c 1 million people coaching, or helping coach grassroots football in the UK alone. Internationally, the figures run into many millions of active football/soccer coaches. The Coaching Manual is a revolutionary new video coaching resource, created for the members of that community. We are ordinary people with the extraordinary responsibility of passing on knowledge to the next generation of players who form the basis of football's future.

Hunter Maats and Katie O'Brien are co-authors of 'The Straight A Conspiracy', a book which explores how kids 'learn how to learn'.

Both Harvard graduates, Hunter and Katie have lived and worked across Los Angeles, New York, London and Oxford and racked up thousands of hours of high-level tutoring. Through this work they identified a number of mental hurdles that students put up to block their own learning, and a great many challenges to effective learning which the traditional school environment struggles to address.

In this in-depth interview, The Coaching Manual Editor Pavl Williams sat down with the authors and discussed how their findings impact on the teaching and learning of soccer - and Hunter's time in England pays off as he reverts to saying football halfway through - or other predominantly variable sports.
