COCA Principle of Achievement
One of the best ways to clarify
your
stretch goals and identify the actions that
you're ready and willing to take to achieve these
goals is by asking yourself powerful and empowering
coaching questions. They will help you make sure
that your goals and plans are current and up to
date. It is very important to reassess you past
decisions periodically. Build the habit of asking
yourself these
coaching questions once in a while:
-
What do I want to
achieve? What change do I want to bring about?
-
How does my
stretch goal fit into my overall life vision?
Does it inspire me?
-
Are my goals still
valid? Given the changes that happened lately,
is what I considered to be important yesterday
still important today? Have any new
life-changing opportunities emerged?
-
Do I focus my
efforts in accordance with
the 80/20 Principle to achieve more with
less? What is the 20% of input that is leading
to 80% of output?
-
What is the one
most important action that I need to take today?
-
What do I feel
inspired and ready to do now?
Once you've identified
the
actions needed,
get started now.
Self-Coaching: Using the GROW Model on Yourself
To improve your
performance and develop a roadmap to
your personal success, you can also use the
GROW (Goal – Reality – Options – Wrap-up) model
on yourself:
-
Goal:
identify specific goals you wish to achieve;
-
Reality:
assess the current situation;
-
Options:
list your options and make choices; and,
finally,
-
Wrap-up:
make steps towards your goal specific and define
timing.
