Are you in control?
Do you remember when there were only 4 television channels?
No recording devices. No magic button to pause the TV whilst you answer the door. No catching up online. The days when your TV viewing was entirely controlled by a faceless scheduler?
And now? Watch what you want when you want. Skip through the adverts. Pause programmes. Watch on your TV set, your computer, your iPod. You choose. You are in control.
How is this a metaphor for coaching?
Think about the first scenario. How alien does it seem today? And when we were in it, how unimaginable was all that choice and control? The stuff of dodgy sci-fi. And now how commonplace does it feel?
What changed?
Perception. People challenging the rules, the status quo. People dreaming, imagining what they wanted and then figuring out how to get it; not being constrained by what they ‘know’ to be true or limited by current circumstances. People wanting to choose and be in control.
You might think that there are areas of your life where it seems unimaginable that you can make choices. I get that - but I don’t think that it has to be that way.
