Comments from Readers of the Newsletters

Here are some examples of feedback received on the newsletters:

- "I found the goal setting and the prioritization exercises particularly useful. They helped me to clarify where I should be focusing my efforts. The technique of keeping an action plan/diary was very valuable to track my progress and ensure that I stay focus and motivated. The worksheets are user-friendly and easy to maintain."
[Maria on Coach Yourself Newsletter]
- "The feature on facing your fears and the acronym for helping with that has worked wonderfully, particularly regarding fears of not being liked much by others. I also found the technique on 'I prefer/I wish' substitution statements very helpful. The newsletter is all good. Overall I would give it a 9.5 or 10 out of 10."
[Michael on Coach Yourself Newsletter]
- "Thank you for your newsletter and good advice. What I like most is that the ideas they convey apply to anyone, whatever their circumstances. I feel often trapped in my own set, due to circumstances and my own doing. It is so good to know that there are always windows and doors open, if I just bother looking up, looking out."
[Rachel on Life Coach Tips Newsletter]

 

- "I will be in the process of starting a life coaching course soon and any doubts I had have been dispelled from receiving your very useful newsletter. You cover a wide range of topics, many of which I hadn't even contemplated but all are important to becoming a successful life coach."
[James on Be a Life Coach Newsletter]
- "Great insight into various subjects within coaching. Great resources and sources for additional information. Useful information about potential avenues to pursue a career in coaching and about potential limitations and pitfalls."
[Carol on Be a Life Coach Newsletter]
- "Thank you for including me in the newsletter distribution. I have found them interesting and selected bits and pieces for action plans. As with these things, it's often uncanny how an issue is included that relates to something that's happening or has just happened...I am managing to spend so much more time writing in different ways and had more money this year than in previous years from actually letting go of my 'main' work. There are lots more interesting things coming up and I am looking forward to it all..."
[Gemma on Life Coach Tips Newsletter]

Many, many thanks..."
