 Coach Your Self Up

  Self-Coaching Skills for Success

This hands-on book is a roadmap for getting out of your own way. Throughout our lives we’ve taken on various behaviors and beliefs that may no longer serve us. It’s easy to assume that’s “just the way I am,” or that it’s either impossible or WAY too hard to change. But can you imagine how discovering new things about yourself – and coaching yourself to more effective ways of thinking and acting — might open new possibilities for your future? That’s the promise of Coach Your Self Up.

It turns out the best thing you can do for your career development is to commit to your ongoing personal development. By learning to be your own coach, you can take more ownership of your career and your life. You’ll have techniques to coach yourself anytime, anywhere, in any situation.

The principles of this book are for everyone, at every level of their career.

What is “Self-Coaching?”

Who do you talk to more than anybody else? This is not a trick question. For most of us the answer is “myself.” Now imagine using those inner conversations for good—your own good. Coach Your Self Up guides you to break through behaviors and thought patterns that may be blocking your success at work and in life.

Mike Normant lays the foundation for driving lasting behavior change by synthesizing important findings on self-awareness from the fields of psychology, neuroscience, and behavioral science.

Apply this approach again and again to “bend your future.”

With a step-by-step approach, plus easy-to-use self-coaching tools, you’ll learn to:

  • Harness your attention to be more present and less distracted
  • Notice your self-limiting behaviors (like not being a good listener, or never saying “no”)
  • See how these behaviors can keep you from a promotion or personal satisfaction at work
  • Discover and challenge your “deep stories” (unconscious assumptions, self-limiting beliefs)
  • Experiment with acting differently

With you as your own coach, you’ll be more focused, have a more open mindset, make better decisions, and find more fulfillment.
