What Suzie Doscher - Executive and Life Coach, Zurich, Switzerland - Says about Personal Development Coaching

In my experience over all well-being and emotional intelligence are linked, it is hard to have one without the other. It is good to know the skills required to grow emotionally can be developed.  
The ability to, not only access your intuition - that gut feeling or inner voice - but also to respect what it is telling you is one of these skills. 
Learning to reshape long-established stifling patterns of behavior allows you to embrace the challenges of life more easily. Part of this is feeling intuitively what is right in a given situation.  
 
You will not gain anything from coaching if you are comfortable remaining passive with respect to difficult situations. Instead of this, be guided, encouraged, supported and motivated in developing your own possibilities to take action.
 
When you step on the path of personal development bear in mind: 

• You should first take care of yourself. This means paying attention to your health. Begin in general by eating properly and sufficiently so your body and mind are replenished and refreshed. 
• Remember to set aside a period of time as often as possible to be alone, to clear your thoughts, and relax. A refreshed mind is essential to inner peace and clarity. There is no balance where there is stress, for this contradicts calmness, serenity, and happiness! 
• To be able to take care of others the best place to start is by learning how to take care of yourself.
• With every step you chose to take, your view on life will begin to alter. There is no way of knowing exactly what it will be like until you have taken a step towards change.
• One of the hardest parts of this path is giving up the concept of “wanting or needing” to know what comes after the next step. You simply will not know until you take it. 
• I encourage my clients to take small steps that are not only genuine and achievable but also most importantly realistic. 
• Life and all it encompasses change all the time, almost daily sometimes.
• Being patient and, equally importantly, flexible is vital to your success.

 
Begin your path of Personal Development with these thoughts:

• It is never too late to grow and develop as a person.
• Be realistic with your expectations and kind to yourself.
• Where you are now and where and how you would like your life to be.
• Accept that some choices might be the wrong ones. That is all right. You are likely to make a better one next time. Such “failures” are opportunities to learn. They tell you more about your weaknesses and strengths. Measure progress against where you were before.

 
Suzie’s approach to coaching is: If you are the best version of yourself you have the strength, skills, resilience and ability to handle whatever comes your way at home and at work.
