Press Release Body = Life coaching is one of the fastest growing industries on both
sides of the Atlantic but what are the main reasons why somebody would employ a life
coach?

In a recent survey conducted by www.lifecoachingstudio.com, the life coaches that
replied proclaimed that the number one reason why people employed them was to help
them with their confidence and self-esteem.

Of the 433 respondents in the survey, 41% advised that confidence building was the
main reason.

Here are the top 5 reasons from the survey:

1. Confidence Building 41%

2. Direction/Purpose/Goals 20%

3. Career 11%

4. Communication Skills 10%

5. Spirituality 6%


With lack of self-esteem and confidence being the main reason why someone would go
to a life coach, is life coaching just another form of counselling?

Sean McPheat, leading life coach and mentor comments that, \"Life coaching is very
different from counselling. It focuses on the hear and now rather than looking into
any deep meanings of the \"why\". The survey demonstrates that society places a lot of
pressure on everyone to be assertive and confident if they want to succeed and more
and more people would rather go to a life coach than a counsellor because they do
not want to look back and dig up the past, instead they want to look forward\"

Here are some tips to help you with your confidence levels:

1. Emotion is created by motion. If you feel low, move your body and you will
naturally feel better

2. Put on an act. If you do not feel confident act as though you are and have some
fun with it

3. Keep a daily log of all of the things you have accomplished each day and review
it before you go to bed

4. Take 5 minutes each day, close your eyes and picture yourself as a confident,
vibrant person

5. Put everything into perspective. When you are feeling low always remember that
there is always
someone who is worse off than you are
