Please feel welcome on this website.

 

There’ll be stuff to read, pictures, coaching exercises and a live blog that’ll show bits of my journey and links to items that are fascinating me at this time. I hope that you and I will be able to set up a dialogue.

 

My name is Hugh and I’m a coach.

I believe that we all need a coach – I myself am never without one. I speak to my coach once a week and in-between while I’m engaged in my life I set aside time for contemplating my actions and relationships.

 

Does a good carpenter or surgeon go to work with her or his tools blunt or bent or dirty? I bet they don’t.

Well in our lives, at home or at work, on the road or on holiday we are the only tool we have.

 

We are the ones who hold down that job. We are the partner to our husbands or our wives. We are the parents of our children and the children of our parents. We are sister, brother, friend, colleague, citizen or passer-by. We’re more likely to function at our best and at our happiest if we’re being sharp and clean and focused and most of us do nothing about that. No practice, no maintenance, no training and no coaching.

 

So I suggest that you try working with a coach. It’s a way to take a good look at who you are and who you intend to be and to get your stuff together.

 

At school or college and at all levels of university we learn how to do things. We learn how to read and write, to draw and to calculate, we plan, we cut, we talk, we put things together and we take them apart, but nowhere do we learn about who we are while we are doing all that stuff.

 

Nowhere do we learn to manage our way of being in the world in different situations. We leave this to chance, to “luck”, to mood.

 

Learning about who we are being while we are doing and who we choose to be while we are living is the focus of the kind of coaching I do.

 

I believe that you know more about living your life than anybody else could possibly know. I do not have the knowledge or the skills that you have. They are yours.

 

What I do have to give are the knowledge, skills and attitudes required to enable you to take a good close look at who you are being in your life and to make sustainable changes to the way you live.

 

We start off by investigating what it is that you really want, now and in the future. We take a look at your values, your “red lines” and we’ll take a really close look at who you get to be when you get what you want.

 

When we know where we want to be we’re able to see the opportunities that can get us there. They were probably there all the time but we weren’t tuned in to recognizing them.

 

We look at what’s happening now. We look backwards and forwards. We look at how come what happened, happened and who you are being in order to connect with what you want in your life.

 

There are many times in life where a small step, a minute change of attitude or way of being can be the difference which takes us from despair to fulfillment, from suffering to happiness.
