So many times we fall into the trap of believing we have no choice.So many times we believe our circumstances are unchangeable…….when increasing our faith and changing our beliefs can cause everything to change.
CHRISTIAN COACHING
(If you are someone that has just experienced great tragedy, or is currently unwell or experiencing a family member that is sick; we are not in anyway suggesting you have caused your circumstance. This article is meant to look at instances where we can change things and to explore more of what God has available for us in all circumstances)
No matter what the circumstances are, we get to choos
e how we react to them.
We decide what we believe, about God, ourselves, others and the world.

These beliefs affect our actions which in turn affects outcomes.
If we constantly believe we will fail; chances are we will act accordingly and will fail!
Changing our beliefs will change our outcomes!
Coaching shifts our beliefs, positively.
It shifts limiting beliefs to positive and empowering beliefs.
When our beliefs are shifted in this way, our actions change positively and we get better outcomes.

3 key coaching strategies to change our beliefs, increase our faith and change unwanted circumstances:
COACHING STRATEGY 1 – Acknowledge
Be prepared to acknowledge that you have limiting beliefs that are holding you back! These beliefs are going to be almost impossible for you to shift by yourself, as to you, they are completely normal ways of thinking. You most probably won’t be able to recognise the limiting beliefs you have.
You can, be on the lookout for phrases you say, or thoughts you think that insinuate negative outcomes are most likely. For example like; ‘there is no way out’, ‘it’s impossible’, ‘it’s too hard?’ Anything that frames a circumstance up in a negative way, or in a way that makes it seem difficult, may indicate an underlying limiting belief you have.
COACHING STRATEGY 2 – Detox
Once you have humbled yourself to realise you have limiting beliefs, and you have begun to become more aware of these, don’t stop there! It’s time to completely flush them out and get rid of them. It’s detox time!
Doing this is going to mean radical breakthrough! You could end up finally changing up your job, your career, your relationship status, your financial circumstance, and breaking free from any ‘stuckness’ you’ve experienced in following the dreams of your heart.
Write your limiting beliefs down. Prayerfully ask God to show you more about them. How did this limiting belief get there? What lie am I believing? What experience embedded this in me? What other dark and unhelpful limiting beliefs lie close to the ones I’ve discovered?
COACHING STRATEGY 3 – Get God’s Perspective
For each belief, ask God what He would like you to believe.

Then, ask God and/or a willing positive thinking friend to help you come up with an empowering belief for each of your limiting beliefs. This is hard work. It won’t be achieved in a day. BUT IT’S WELL WORTH IT!
