The following article is from a series of articles, videos and tips about personal life coaching …
It is feasible that, while searching for a personal life coach, you came across an advertisement or two with someone claiming to be a “certified life coach”. Many who claim to be a certified life coach end up charging more money than non-certified life coaches. With that in mind, is it worth paying the extra money to hire a certified life coach? In many ways it is, although this may not be the case in your situation. Before understanding if it’s worth it or not, you must understand what a life coach certificate means.
Being a certified life coach means that someone has completed one or more training courses that will help him or her deal with any problem that may come up. A non-certified life coach may be skilled in what he or she does, but a certified life coach will have had people with years of experience teaching him or her how to perform in a manner that gets desired results. Also, a certified life coach will probably have some practical experience included in their training.
In the end, the difference between a certified life coach and a non-certified life coach is a matter of training and education. If you’re looking for a personal life coach, it pays to hire a certified one, even if a certified life coach costs more than a non-certified life coach. It can be the difference between glorious success and not quite making it over that hill. And since what you want is to achieve a successful outcome, the choice should be clear. Why would you consider hiring anything other than a certified life coach?

In this ever changing, byte-speed world we are living in, it is far easier to fall prey to low self esteem. Many times, it happened voluntarily. Even though nobody likes to be in the state of low self esteem, they sometimes found themselves succumb to it simply because they missed the clue. And here is how you can avoid low self esteem by paying attention these 3 things:
First, avoid excessive comparison.
If you are in the corporate world, the word ‘benchmarking’ is nothing new to you. Many companies practice benchmarking as a way to improve performance. Even in the corporate world, there are drawbacks to this approach. Numerous case studies have been documented to illustrate this whereby many companies had equal share of rise and fall following this method.
And what about individual?
Likewise, comparing ourselves to the rank, possession, and lifestyle of the Joneses next door, had proven to be depressive more than supportive. No doubt that there are time and place for comparing all those but if it is done based only on what we can see, in no time we are sure to hit the wall. And we are assured of getting low self esteem symptoms nonetheless.

How Lack of Confidence Fractured My Ribs:
I started skiing in my 40’s. Whenever I looked down from the snow-covered hilltops, my eyes widened. My heart pounded, and my knees turned to jelly. On one downhill run, my fear sent me crashing and I fractured my ribs. I knew I had to get over my fear because I wanted to ski with my family. Being a child/family counselor, naturally I turned to affirmations. With the next ski trip I told myself, ‘I can and I am.’ Then I pushed off into a great downhill ride.
Can you see what I did? When I felt controlled from the outside, I worried about the steepness of the hill, the recklessness of skiers nearby skiers, and my own abilities to make it to the bottom in one piece. With those thoughts I fractured my ribs.
Self-Esteem Affirmations - How Inner Control Increased My Success:
I couldn’t let these fears control me. I needed inner control. Affirmations were the answer. At home I visualized the ski slope. I felt the good feeling of swishing down the hillside and I told myself, “I can and I am.” I was changing my outer control to inner control. My next ski runs were a breeze. The affirmation worked for me on the ski slopes and this process can work for you and your children too.
