Know Thyself - Personal Coaching Philosophies

A coaching philosophy helps you make wise decisions in times of crisis and is also helpful in clarifying why you coach. It's important to know, on those not so great days, what will motivate you to continue.

It's essential you know yourself before you attempt to learn about each and everyone of your players.

Key Action Points: 
·      Define a vision or personal philosophy
·      Live it “actions determine what kind of characteristics are developed” (Aristotle)
·      Communicate it to others 

When Developing Your Vision or Philosophy: 
·     Reflect upon your life history
·      Support your philosophy with direct evidence from your life
·      Always write it down
