How to do what you know

I’ve just returned from Christchurch where I met up with 12 coaches from around the country – The A-Team: all committed to excellence within their own coaching fields. I shared with them my recent learnings about closing the gap between knowing what’s required, & the actual doing!

All very interesting stuff –
• The right side of your brain is actually responsible for our behaviour;
• There’s a need to reach the unconscious mind, which is responsible for over 90% of our behaviour.
• Most people rely on will-power, discipline, desire and logic to get the changes they want, which is mainly working the left brain (only 5-10% of our behaviour)!



As a coach, I’m aware of this on a daily basis, as I show people how to change their mindset or beliefs to achieve better results.

Your current results are a reflection of current thinking. This means that when you change your thinking you will take different actions & decisions and get different results.

Tapping into the emotional side of the brain is imperative, but can be as simple as using a story or a metaphor to explain something. Using real life examples instead of only facts and figures makes a huge difference.

If you or someone you know is having a challenge with knowing what to do versus actually doing it, then have a go at the above, & remember to let me know the changes that come about.

Talk to you soon…
