Coaching Questions:
- Where has fear of failure prevented me from stepping up to the plate?
- What’s the worst that could happen?
- How will I deal with that?
- What do I need to do to step into my power and stop playing small?
Coaching Thought:
Fear keeps us playing a small game, nervous to put our heads above the parapet, hiding in the safety of a lukewarm life. But people who spend all their time thinking about problems are in danger of imagining a false reality. Challenges are there to lift us to higher performance. We must do something, and stop wallowing in fearful thoughts. 'Thinking will not overcome fear, but action will!' W. Clement Stone.
Coaching Questions:
Have you ever suggested an idea that didn’t land, only to have it suggested and heartily taken up by someone else a little while later? Ideas based on Michael Grinder’s Professional Development Model explain this.
Timing and permission are key micro-skills of communication which are often missing in organisations. They are valid in many aspects of communication eg feedback or contributing in meetings.
The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don’t define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them.
Denis Waitley
The communication style of leaders helps us distinguish great leaders from the wannabes. When facing a problem the great leader says, ‘Let’s find out,’ while the wannabe says, ‘Nobody knows.’

Whatever it is, if it doesn’t make you happy, walk away, give it away to someone else who wants it. Let it be their next dream; let it flee from you. Then you have room to grow, to allow magnificent things to fill the vacuum of those seemingly empty places. When you hold onto yesterday, when you hold onto dead and dying adventures, you have no room in your box for greatness. Unknown
