The key question to ask yourself when it comes to personal coaching is this:

Are you happy?

I'm not talking dancing on the tables, ecstatic joy every moment of every day.  But I am talking about basic contentment, with who you are, and where you are in life.

Many people answer this question with a "conditional" no that sounds something like this:

I'll be happy when... I get thin, a boyfriend, girlfriend, promotion, new car, new house, independently wealthy,  married, pregnant, famous, more appreciation, respect, love, etc.

This external approach to the pursuit of happiness sometimes works in the short term but rarely produces lasting happiness.  Normally you work long and hard to get what you want, and by the time you get it, you've set your sights on something different.

When you develop your personal foundation, however, you not only change your experience of the world from the inside out, you dramatically increase your power to affect the world around you, and your chances of getting all the external things you want.

Are you ready for personal coaching?   The key readiness question is this:

Are you ready to take full responsibility for your life, and willing to do what it takes to get happy?

If you are unhappy and it's someone else's fault, coaching wont help you.  If it sure feels like someone else's fault, but you are open to the possibility that you have more power than you think, this may be the time to make the leap.
