Coaching: A new way of naming an old practice?

     

By Raúl Gorrín.- There are many definitions that have been formulated about this process that helps people to reach a goal under the guidance of a coach. According to some specialists, coaching is the accompaniment of a person based on their professional needs, for the development of their potential. Others define it as the process of releasing a person's potential to maximize their performance. It is an activity, a feedback, a conversation that aims at people learning.

     The coach will make questions to explore the belief system, the values, the strengths and limitations. Such exploration will make it easier for you to make decisions and make commitments to yourself and the organization. Is this practice new? If we assume it as a training process, we have to say no. The difference is in the way the teaching-learning process is adopted, which is disconnected from traditional methods and training.

     The coach acts as a facilitator, but also has a leadership role. The role of facilitator is to stimulate, incite and provocative, not an adviser. Among the coach's tools is to build trust, between him and the persons who are being trained. The coach doesn’t give advice or tell to those persons what to do. The idea is to make the discovery. Coaching is in the way of approaching the learning process; it  makes easy the path for professional growth and development.

Shame is not so bad at all

    

By Raúl Gorrín.-  Shame is an emotion that pretends to hide some defect or action from ourselves that we believe if we were seen. This could provoke rejection from others. It is an emotion that makes us to hide ourselves from the rest of the people or make us self-criticism to avoid or minimize the destructive criticism or rejection from others. Although, some shame feelings such as anger, sadness and fear indicate that something very bad is happening in our lives that motivate us to modify a certain embarrassing behavior.

     Excessive shame is a negative feeling. It drives us away from others so that personal relationship is damaged or abandoned. It is like when a person says to himself: "I have many defects and complexes that I can never improve, I better laugh". But not everything is so bad when we talk about shame, because there a positive way, it is manifested through a temporary state that tells us that something is really wrong in our relationships with the world. It tells us that the connection between us and others has broken and we need to repair it. Positive shame is like a good friend who is not afraid to tell us that we are ruining our lives.

     In addition, when we feel ashamed, we want to disappear, but at the end, we want to be accepted through our emotions and in some corner, we hope to return to the side of our family and friends, that is precisely one of the advantages of positive shame because it guides us back to the community, reality and happiness Also, it helps us discover important truths about ourselves It can be of great value, because we could accept the human limits if we don’t experience shame.

Program your mind with one objective: success

   

 By Raúl Gorrín.- Sometimes, when we think about successful people, we think they had good lucky and money in their lives and we don’t see further. Those people have had failures, sadness and a lot of frustrations. They fell and got up with strength and optimism.

     The idea to reach success isn’t easy as we think. We should be willing to pay the price that it demands. This status requires determination, effort time and energy. Apart from that, what we are looking for (success), has to be really important for us. This is the only way to keep us motivated through problems and difficult that can we face. It would be easy to make it.

     Another important thing is to switch or program our minds with the success idea. We are not changing things at the same time, but if we are constants, definitely we will be a successful person.

     We need to analyze our weaknesses and strengths. The point is, searching for success in those areas that we have strength. Plus, we need to take risks, make the effort and be patience since success is not an immediate result.
