How to Succeed in 7 Simple Steps

When young people are learning to coach themselves, it is important that they connect with their ‘inner coach’.

Hence why the U in SUCCEED is Understand yourself.

Their ‘inner coach’ is the voice which:

• Is positive

• Doesn’t judge them

• Believes in them

• Encourages and supports them

• Wants the best for them

 • Is unconditional

• Is their best friend. How can they do this?

1. By listening and becoming aware of their self-talk.

2. Recognising when it is negative or limiting

3. Realising how this does not serve them

4. Choosing to change what they listen to

For example, ‘Nobody likes me.’ Becomes ‘I like me.’

7 Steps to SUCCEED – The Young person’s Guide to Self-Coaching is published shortly by AuthorHouse.

 ISBN:

 It is designed to complement ‘Coaching for Parents – Supporting Young People to SUCCEED.’

 It is not behaviour management, it is relationship management!

 Helping young people to understand the dynamics of relationships helps them to make sense of situations that they are in, especially at school.

Hence the U in SUCCEED also stands for Understand Others.

Eric Berne’s original work that gave us the foundations of transactional analysis is a simple way to raise awareness and invite young people into ownership of who they are being in any relationship.

Encouraging young people to be aware of what can ‘hook’ them enables them to use their personal power in a positive way. The light bulb really does go on!
