Pathways

This will be the first post-the first collection of thoughts that I have had in days that will not have a science reference attached to it in any kind of way. Or, at least I believe that to be the case from the onset. Facilitating maturity should always be one of the goals, spoken or unspoken of the Life coach. That is the school of thought of the organization from which I am getting my certification. And, I have to say that I not only like that, but it resonates with me on all levels of my being. It will be a principal that I will take great pride and give considerable energy and effort in seeing produced in my clients. That said, I believe a life coach should set a table in such a way to aid the client in choosing the right paths to take to get them from their now to their goal. Uh oh, I feel this post taking a bit of a turn toward science-possibly geography. Not all roads are equal. Nor will all roads get us to where we need to be in life. Some roads are rocky. Others require us to climb hills and descend into valleys. Some are safe while on others we are certain to experience perils. Some pathways are heavily traveled and some are so scarcely travel that they appear to have disappeared into the landscape. some are marked with signage while others only by rumor. Some will invoke maturity, others will invite mischief. On some we can determine the condition from afar on others we will only know the quality of the pathway by experience. And lastly some pathways are familiar to us and to our families while others have and will probably remain a mystery for some time to come. Though the experience of most pathways may very well be the first hand knowledge of many, the choice still remains ours and ours alone. Choices can either help, heal, or harm. May we as clients and coaches choose wisely.
