Identifying Self-Imposed Rules
Many individuals in coaching find themselves constrained by self-imposed rules that limit their creativity and expression. One participant in a coaching session revealed that they had developed a series of rules regarding their newsletter, such as needing a complete website before sending it out or believing they cannot share personal struggles with their audience. These rules were not only hindering their writing process but also created a sense of paralysis, as they grappled with conflicting expectations. Recognizing and questioning these self-imposed barriers is crucial, as it allows individuals to redefine their standards and approach to their business correspondence.
