137.eng. _ It is here now.”
138.eng. _ Lorna Payge
139.eng. _ “I love being a pioneer, being at the beginning of something and being a part of it, nurturing it and giving it life and energy.
140.eng. _ To me that is what this training has been about.

142.eng. _ Ann Skidmore

144.eng. _ I feel complete as an NLP trainer/coach etc.”
145.eng. _ Florence Lombard
146.eng. _ “Transformational.

149.eng. _ Hazel Ann Lorkins - NLP Coach
150.eng. _ “The training has meant that I can call myself a Coach and feel great in doing so.
151.eng. _ It has meant opening up new vistas, change, development, freedom - very much a fit with some of my core values.”
152.eng. _ Jeremy Cassell
153.eng. _ The UK NLP Coaching Certification Training - a proven track record of success
154.eng. _
155.eng. _ The ITS NLP Coaching Certification Training began in 2000 and has proved a tremendous success.
156.eng. _ Those who attend the training come from a wide range of backgrounds and choose it for many reasons.
157.eng. _ These range from wanting to build an international Coaching practice - to simply wishing to expand and deepen their current NLP skills.
158.eng. _ Whatever your reasons for becoming an NLP Coach, you can be sure that you will be spending 20 days with a group of supportive, like-minded individuals with whom you are about to embark on a fascinating and deeply fulfilling journey.
159.eng. _ Those who have already become certified NLP Coaches report many benefits.
160.eng. _ These include:
161.eng. _ Really understanding what makes coaching unique and why it is so appealing
162.eng. _ A wealth of new tools and techniques that are specific to Coaching
163.eng. _ A sense of certainty about their abilities to successfully Coach others and where appropriate, build a coaching practice
164.eng. _ An entirely new NLP skill level
165.eng. _ Really knowing how to give feedback
166.eng. _ Dramatically improved results with existing clients
167.eng. _ For some, a new career, for others a new way of working
168.eng. _ A sense of congruence around their ability to combine their NLP knowledge-base with well-defined Coaching skills
169.eng. _ New interest and more responsiveness from potential clients and customers following their certification as an NLP Coach
170.eng. _ Having credibility in the coaching field
171.eng. _ The ICF
172.eng. _ The International Coach Federation is the leading professional association of personal and business coaches.
173.eng. _ It seeks to preserve the integrity of coaching around the world and its pioneering work has set standards for the profession.
174.eng. _ Already in the US increasing numbers of companies are stipulating that they will only hire ICF Coaches.
175.eng. _ The ITS NLP Coaching Certification Training has been designed to meet the criteria laid down by the ICF.
176.eng. _ A significant part of the training involves being a Coach
177.eng. _ You will not just learn about Coaching skills - you will ‘do’ them in real Coaching environments.
178.eng. _ You will get a phenomenal amount of targeted hands-on experience of actual Coaching.
179.eng. _ People who have taken other coaching trainings repeatedly tell us how this makes our programme quite unique - and how empowering it is to know you really can deliver.
180.eng. _ In addition to coaching during the four-day modules you will also learn how to sustain a coaching relationship over time - from both perspectives.
181.eng. _ Throughout the programme you will have your own coach in-between the modules.
182.eng. _ You will also be a coach to a course participant in-between the modules.
183.eng. _ (This is so valuable that previous years’ course participants have chosen to continue the arrangement after the training is over).
184.eng. _ Beyond a 20-day training
185.eng. _ The depth of this programme goes far beyond the training modules.
186.eng. _ Between the modules, you will build on the material you have learned with your own Coach.
187.eng. _ In addition, you will be someone else’s Coach between modules.
188.eng. _ This process rapidly enhances your new Coaching skills.
189.eng. _ You will have the Coaching experience, you will have the added dimension of the client experience, you will have the feedback of your new colleagues
190.eng. _ - and then you will have the next module to use Ian and Jan’s expertise to answer questions and receive additional feedback and learning.
191.eng. _ So the ITS NLP Coaching Certification Training is not just a 20-day course - it is a six month continual learning experience.
192.eng. _ UK NLP Coaching
193.eng. _ Uniting the principles of advanced NLP with the power of Coaching, to offer a comprehensive Certification Programme for individuals whose work involves interacting with, influencing and assisting others, or who want to pursue a career as a professional NLP Coach.
194.eng. _ Why Coaching?
195.eng. _ The ability to assist others to gain clarity in their lives and access the resources they need to solve problems and fulfil their dreams, is both a sought after and highly rewarding skill.
196.eng. _ It’s also an ability that can be learnt by mastering the art of NLP Coaching.
197.eng. _ As the march of progress and technology continues, peoples’ lives are getting more complex and often more stressful.
198.eng. _ While 21st century life offers more opportunities
199.eng. _ - it also presents us with more choices.
200.eng. _ And navigating our way through these choices can be a challenge - that’s where we need some support.
201.eng. _ As an NLP Coach, you enable people to meet this challenge.
202.eng. _ People are also seeing the results that colleagues and friends achieve from working with an excellent Coach.
203.eng. _ Perhaps it should come as no surprise that seeking out a trained individual with superb coaching skills and an outside perspective on our lives, can produce significant results.
204.eng. _ This new acceptance of the power of Coaching is why it is now one of the world’s fastest growing professions.
205.eng. _ Certifi cation Training
206.eng. _ So why else has coaching become so popular?
207.eng. _ People are experiencing the financial benefits that follow from working with a good Coach.
208.eng. _ In particular, professionals who improve their lives as a result of coaching are far more effective at work and will generally command higher salaries or fees as a result.
209.eng. _ So an NLP Coach is a classic example of someone who adds incredible value to the lives of others.
210.eng. _ This, in turn enables the Coach to be well compensated for their skills.
211.eng. _ As people become busier, prioritising their lives becomes an increasing challenge.
212.eng. _ We have so many commitments, we don’t always successfully prioritise those commitments.
213.eng. _ If you have ten phone calls to make, fifteen emails to answer and the dry cleaning to pick up - it’s not surprising if other issues such as designing your life get put off - again and again.
214.eng. _ One of the reasons coaching has become so popular is that a coach holds us to our deadlines, our commitments and our promises.
215.eng. _ By working with a coach, we make a commitment to ourselves.
216.eng. _ By becoming an NLP Coach, you become equipped with the skills to help others fulfil their potential.
217.eng. _ In a world where it is gradually becoming more socially acceptable to express our feelings and talk about ‘problems’ we are all being asked to take on coaching roles.
218.eng. _ A manager is a coach -the days of management being about giving
219.eng. _ orders are long gone.
220.eng. _ A health professional can become a coach, as can teachers or parents…
221.eng. _ So we live in a climate where coaching is acceptable and sought after and those of us who learn the advanced skills of an NLP Coach are in increasingly high demand.
222.eng. _ Coaching offers people a way of dealing with important issues in their lives in a non-threatening way.
223.eng. _ In the past, therapy and counselling may have been regarded as the only solution when we encountered personal challenges.
224.eng. _ Now there is an increasing realisation that we have the resources we need within us - and we also need some outside assistance to help us access them and so facilitate our progress.
225.eng. _ Most people go through life realising only a part of their potential and sensing that there is so much more they are capable of.
226.eng. _ As a coach, you experience the satisfaction and fulfilment of assisting individuals in being more of who they can be.
227.eng. _ Coaching is a powerful partnership providing structure, accountability, feedback and support.
228.eng. _ Being a coach can be compared to being a personal trainer, keeping your clients focused on a vision of long-term excellence in their lives, and supporting them through the process of taking the steps to get there.
229.eng. _ This is an incredibly valuable resource for those you work with.
230.eng. _ Executive Coaching and Life Coaching
231.eng. _ Most of those who seek you out for coaching will be looking for Executive Coaching or Life Coaching.
232.eng. _ Some NLP Coaches focus on one of these areas.
233.eng. _ Some deal with both.
234.eng. _ The choice is yours.
235.eng. _ Executive Coaching
236.eng. _ Your clients will normally be high achievers who can’t go any further unless they expand their skills.
237.eng. _ Often those who seek Executive Coaching are outstanding in one or more areas of life, but feel they are lacking elsewhere.
238.eng. _ Perhaps they are highly successful at work but they feel they need to ‘get a life’ once they leave the office.
239.eng. _ Or they may be performing well at work, but recent promotion has meant there is one area (such as people skills) where they need to improve their performance.
240.eng. _ Executive Coaching is also for people who have achieved results and simply want assistance to go further.
241.eng. _ Individuals and Companies who seek you out as an Executive Coach are looking for tailor made solutions.
242.eng. _ An NLP Coach who is excellent at Executive Coaching is able to:
243.eng. _ 1 Achieve results for clients and where applicable, their team
244.eng. _ 2 Assist managers with team building
245.eng. _ 3 Help individuals gain clarity in their thinking
246.eng. _ 4 Challenge and help individuals to change limiting beliefs
247.eng. _ 5 Help managers to become a support rather than a threat, as well as assisting them in bringing out the talent and potential of their teams.
248.eng. _ Life Coaching
249.eng. _ This is about living your life in keeping with what’s important to you.
250.eng. _ It enables you first to take stock and get clear, second regain control and third achieve balance in your life.
251.eng. _ It addresses all manor of issues; Where am I now? Where am I going? What do I want? How do I resolve this particular issue? How do I sort out my confusing and stressful life? Which career path should I pursue?
252.eng. _ An NLP Coach who is excellent at Life Coaching is able to:
253.eng. _ 1 Help clients stay on track with their own self-selected solutions and plans
254.eng. _ 2 Develop deep rapport and trust with their clients
255.eng. _ 3 Ask thought-provoking questions to help clients clarify their outcomes and what they need to do to achieve them
256.eng. _ 4 Help others make steady progress towards goals by providing ongoing structure and accountability
257.eng. _ 5 Know that the real skill in Life Coaching
258.eng. _ - as in all coaching - is not knowing the solutions but eliciting the solutions from the real expert - your client.
259.eng. _ How is Coaching different and what is NLP Coaching?
260.eng. _ How is coaching different?
261.eng. _ When an explorer sets off on an exhilarating journey, they may well take a guide.
262.eng. _ When they finish the journey and celebrate their achievement, they know that they are responsible and they achieved their dream.
263.eng. _ But they also know they probably wouldn’t have done it without the help of the guide.
264.eng. _ The guide didn’t make the journey for them, but they were there at every stage to encourage, motivate, help with the navigation and remind the explorer why they took the journey in the first place!
265.eng. _ The difference between coaching - and other fi elds such as counselling, therapy or consulting is quite simple.
266.eng. _ The coach does not have the answers.
267.eng. _ The coach does not provide subject specific technical knowledge or expertise.
268.eng. _ A coach operates from the presupposition that the client has all the resources.
269.eng. _ Coaching is about assuming that people already have what they need - they just need to be coached to access it.
270.eng. _ Like a sports coach, your role is partly to hold your client accountable to their personal best.
271.eng. _ The client is the expert.
272.eng. _ The coach is an expert in not knowing.
273.eng. _ This is a skill in itself.
274.eng. _ Coaches do not provide answers or expertise in the way a trainer, consultant or mentor might, nor does the coach need to come up with their own answer to the client’s problems.
275.eng. _ The true art of coaching is to gently question and facilitate the client into tapping their resources so that they come up with the answers.
276.eng. _ As a masterful coach you help your clients stay on track with their own self-selected solutions and plans.
277.eng. _ The coach asks thought provoking questions to help clients clarify their present state without judgement, and helps clarify their desires for the future.
278.eng. _ Once the client develops strategies, the coach helps the client make steady progress towards goals by providing ongoing structure and accountability.
279.eng. _ Successful people seek out coaches.
280.eng. _ We have come a long way from the days when people were regarded as ‘broken’ if they had to seek outside help for problems.
281.eng. _ The tables have turned 180 degrees.
282.eng. _ Now it is accepted that it is the most successful individuals who seek out coaches because they realise that to fulfil your dreams in a complex world, you can’t do it alone.
283.eng. _ Recent issues of Newsweek, Money Magazine and The Wall Street Journal have been urging professionals to seek out the services of a professional coach.
284.eng. _ What is NLP Coaching?
285.eng. _ There are different types of coaching but some are more effective than others.
286.eng. _ Because NLP involves the study of human excellence, NLP Coaching is the result of studying and modelling the most effective forms of coaching available - and combining this with the leading edge knowledge on human behaviour and patterning that NLP offers us.
287.eng. _ So as an NLP Coach you are far more than just a ‘coach.’ You will have access to the most advanced tools and strategies for assisting individuals to clarify outcomes, align their values, remove any obstacles from the past and seek out and implement the strategies that will give them success in the future.
288.eng. _ Here are some of the unique aspects of being an NLP Coach
289.eng. _ The basis of all your communication will be mastery of some of the most advanced communications skills available.
290.eng. _ Your ability to establish deep rapport and your understanding of the structure of human influence will put you in an excellent position to interact with others and gain excellent results.
291.eng. _ By incorporating the NLP Presuppositions into your coaching you will greatly increase your effectiveness.
292.eng. _ In particular, approaching coaching with an understanding of how we all create the maps of our individual reality, together with the belief that your clients already have the resources they need, will enable you to help your clients achieve results more quickly and effectively.
293.eng. _ It is very likely that when a client seeks out a Coach for a specific issue, the blocks to them achieving their outcomes may well be rooted in past events.
294.eng. _ An NLP Coach has access to a vast array of tools to help clear such blocks.
295.eng. _ Coaches who are not trained in NLP will generally not have these skills.
296.eng. _ NLP’s focus on outcomes is a powerful aspect of NLP coaching.
297.eng. _ Sometimes, the main reason for someone seeking out an NLP Coach is for them to get clear on what they want.
298.eng. _ To assist an individual in clarifying their outcomes is not just a vital first step - it can also be the most important intervention the NLP Coach may make.
299.eng. _ NLP is about focusing on what we want and looking for models of excellence to achieve our goals.
300.eng. _ It is sometimes useful to remember that this is revolutionary thinking.
301.eng. _ A coach who works from this mindset is likely to be far more effective than a coach who adopts the normal cultural beliefs about possibility.
302.eng. _ This is the NLP Coaching difference.
303.eng. _ Coaching for professionals
304.eng. _ We are all Coaches There are many ways of coaching.
305.eng. _ You are a coach during a one hour session with a client and you may be a coach during breakfast with your children.
306.eng. _ The NLP Coaching Certification Training is designed to assist you in all of your interactions with others.
307.eng. _ Generally, those who attend this training will either want to use their skills as part of their existing working roles, or they are pursuing a career as an NLP Coach.
308.eng. _ While some will attend this training to build their own coaching practice, many are also using the material to progress their careers within existing organisations.
309.eng. _ Coaching is being used extensively in all forms of business.
310.eng. _ ‘Formal’ Coaching
311.eng. _ Many organisations see the benefit of offering staff the opportunity to engage in structured coaching with suitably trained members of staff or outside Coaches.
312.eng. _ As a trained NLP Coach you will have the necessary skills to assist staff at all levels whether their goals are personal or professional.
313.eng. _ NLP Coaching skills are also being used to assist organisations and their staff through times of change and re-organisation.
314.eng. _ ‘Informal’ Coaching
315.eng. _ Many NLP Coaches are using their skills in the organisational environment in less structured interactions with staff.
316.eng. _ The main currency of exchange in NLP coaching is language and non-verbal feedback.
317.eng. _ Your skills can be just as effectively applied in a fifteen minute chat with a colleague as they can in a pre-arranged ‘coaching session.’ You have the added advantage that some individuals will be more receptive to your NLP Coaching skills in such an environment.
318.eng. _ Coaching can be of benefit to all professionals
319.eng. _ There are many examples of how NLP Coaching is being used in different professions.
320.eng. _ Senior managers in the banking industry have used NLP Coaching to work with staff and create stronger teams.
321.eng. _ They built a strong distinction between coaching and mentoring to build the next generation of company leaders.
322.eng. _ A major insurance company has used NLP Coaching to help build a strong and successful sales force.
323.eng. _ Members of the teaching profession have used their new NLP Coaching skills to greatly assist their students to achieve more.
324.eng. _ Human Resources staff are using NLP Coaching to work at all levels of their organisations.
325.eng. _ Health professionals and complementary therapists can use NLP Coaching to increase their effectiveness with patients and clients.
326.eng. _ Consultants and Trainers who train as NLP Coaches make extensive use of their skills.
327.eng. _ They add considerable value to their clients and report increased business as a result.
328.eng. _ A career as an NLP Coach
329.eng. _ The profession of coaching is gaining in popularity and can be a fulfilling and financially rewarding career.
330.eng. _ Your certification as an NLP Coach, and the network of support from your fellow coaches will assist you as you build your business.
331.eng. _ Personal/Professional Coaching - how it can work
332.eng. _ If you are interested in a career as a Coach, here is an outline of how the process normally works:
333.eng. _ Coaching often begins with an initial intake or foundation appointment of two or more hours.
334.eng. _ The coach and client set up a regular meeting or call schedule, totalling perhaps two hours per month.
335.eng. _ The client commits to a minimum of three months coaching.
336.eng. _ The cost can range from £150 - £500 per month depending on the coach.
337.eng. _ There is no set structure for pricing.
338.eng. _ However, your rates are likely to increase over time due to increased skill and experience.
339.eng. _ Coaching in the 21st Century
340.eng. _ Technology is making a big impact on the profession of Coaching.
341.eng. _ As an NLP Coach, you will generally carry out your work in one or more of the following ways:
342.eng. _ 1 In Person By physically interacting with the person you are coaching, you have the opportunity to gain feedback in all sensory modalities.
343.eng. _ You can then use your advanced NLP skills to assist the client with precision.
344.eng. _ 2 Telephone It suits many peoples’ schedule to have initial meetings in person and then conduct future coaching sessions on the phone.
345.eng. _ Again, your NLP skills will be vital in measuring the auditory responses from your clients.
346.eng. _ 3 Email While personal interaction is vital for coaching, some aspects of the exchange can be done by email.
347.eng. _ Together with use of the phone the NLP coach is able to offer their skills to anyone on the planet.
348.eng. _ 4 Video Conferencing With the arrival of broadband internet, increasingly you will be able to see your clients in full screen video, either on your TV or computer.
349.eng. _ They will also be able to see you.
350.eng. _ The days of International Coaching have truly arrived!
351.eng. _ An In-depth Training… your key to credibility
352.eng. _ To even be eligible to take this training, you have already pursued excellence through to Practitioner and Master Practitioner training and possibly beyond.
353.eng. _ All of your NLP training has taken you to this point.
354.eng. _ As an NLP Master Practitioner, you have already completed a major component of what’s needed for your Coaching Certification Training.
355.eng. _ There are many training courses for coaching available.
356.eng. _ Some are cheaper than the NLP Coaching Certification and many are shorter.
357.eng. _ In fact, some last just one weekend! However, there is only one truly comprehensive 20-day NLP Coaching programme.
358.eng. _ If you were seeking out a coach and looking for just one individual to help you with a vital element of your life, would you work with someone who had done a few days training and maybe read a book or two - or would you choose someone who had trained to Master Practitioner level in NLP over a period of months or years - and then undertaken another 20 days of intensive Coaching Training with the world’s leading NLP Coaching trainers?
359.eng. _ By the time you complete this training, you will have completed many, many days training in NLP and Coaching.
360.eng. _ You will also have the opportunity to enhance your skills through specific Coaching calls in the periods between modules.
361.eng. _ This training will ensure that you have hands-on experience of real time coaching so that your skills are fine tuned
362.eng. _ -and you are able to use all your NLP training to deliver life-changing results.
363.eng. _ Build an international coaching practice
364.eng. _ Your trainers, Ian McDermott and Jan Elfline are recognised leaders in the field of international NLP Coaching.
365.eng. _ Both have built a global Coaching client base that attracts clients from many continents.

367.eng. _ We have worked at pioneering the skills necessary to cross the cultural divides with NLP coaching.
368.eng. _ While different societies have many surface level differences, at a deeper level we are all very similar.

370.eng. _ In our experience NLP Coaching is ideally suited to serve the global business economy.

469.eng. _ The real power of Coaching…
470.eng. _ …the ability to reclaim your life, one step at a time
471.eng. _ Coaching is not about the miracle one-hour cure to all of your clients’ problems.
472.eng. _ Sometimes, the most effective change will be in steps - not in one big bound.
473.eng. _ Massive cumulative change can be achieved through consistent improvement over time.
474.eng. _ Generally speaking Coaching needs to take place over time because people are seeking change and balance in their lives.
475.eng. _ And they need time to achieve this new balance.
476.eng. _ They seek guidance and clarity in making sense of the elements that make up their lives.
477.eng. _ Becoming clear about this balance often happens over time.
478.eng. _ Here are some examples of where you will be helping individuals as an NLP Coach.
479.eng. _ Work
480.eng. _ Many individuals know that they are not satisfied with their working lives.
481.eng. _ But when you ask them what they want instead, “I don’t know” is often the response.
482.eng. _ This ‘not knowing’ comes from the individual not being able to clarify their values and outcomes.
483.eng. _ As an NLP Coach, you are in an excellent position to help those you are working with gain that clarity, and without giving them the answers, leading them to a point where they can make really significant changes in their working lives.
484.eng. _ Health
485.eng. _ It is difficult for an individual to fulfil their potential if they are not in good health.
486.eng. _ While people do not normally expect a coach to deal with health issues, you will often find that your NLP Coaching skills can play a part in an individual’s journey to improved health.
487.eng. _ Often, encouraging someone to build health outcomes into their other life outcomes will be an important first step.
488.eng. _ If you are a graduate of the NLP Health Certification Training, the skills you learn as an NLP Coach, will greatly assist you to help clients achieve deeper health changes.
489.eng. _ Family/Relationships
490.eng. _ Family and relationship issues will often come up, whether you are a formal coach, or just chatting with individuals in your everyday life.
491.eng. _ When people bring up relationship questions they will often be asking for advice.
492.eng. _ As an NLP Coach, you will know that your greatest resource is to ask the individuals questions which help them gain clarity and access the resources they need to resolve the situation.
493.eng. _ People have all the resources they need, and bringing that knowledge to any interaction will often be the greatest gift you can give your clients or colleagues.
494.eng. _ Spirit
495.eng. _ Whatever the reason an individual seeks out formal or informal Coaching, they probably want to be more fulfilled in their lives and they probably want to be happier.
496.eng. _ For many people, achieving this will result in deeper fulfilment, at what might be referred to as a spiritual level.
497.eng. _ So while it would be unusual in our culture for a coach to offer their skills for spiritual outcomes, it is not unusual for clients to achieve spiritual outcomes after working with an excellent NLP Coach.
498.eng. _ Finance
499.eng. _ Some of your clients may have financial issues to deal with.
500.eng. _ When these issues arise, you will want to be trained to the level where you can assist your clients in gaining clarity and making the decisions that will work for them.
501.eng. _ Again, an excellent NLP Coach won’t have all the answers to financial problems - but they will have the questions that can produce those answers.
502.eng. _ Easy payment plan
503.eng. _ To make it as easy as possible for you to take this training, you have the option of an easy payment plan.
504.eng. _ You can spread the cost over seven months, enabling you to take the training for a deposit of £543.75 plus six easy payments of £350 which can be done with cheques or credit cards.
505.eng. _ A Dream Coach’s responsibility
506.eng. _ Discover, clarify and align with what the client wants to achieve
507.eng. _ Encourage self-discovery
508.eng. _ Hold the client responsible and accountable
509.eng. _ Speak the truth
510.eng. _ Relate, reflect and help produce results
511.eng. _ 10 Steps to Dream Coaching
512.eng. _ 1. Set An Intention — This is the first and one of the most essential steps in the process. Set an intention such as finding a new job or career, or getting a promotion.
513.eng. _ 2. Maintain Integrity — It is essential that you remove or clear up anything from your past that might be in the way of you having or getting what you want.
514.eng. _ 3. Live On Purpose — Dreams without purpose, even a job without aligning to your purpose, can be unfulfilling.
515.eng. _4. Access Your Dreamer — There is the part of you that knows what will make you happy and what you want.

517.eng. _5. Learn From Your Doubter — Create a powerful relationship with the doubter inside of you, and learn from the lessons this part of you offers.
518.eng. _ Left unattended, this often sabotages our dreams and does not need to happen.
519.eng. _6. Believe In Your Dreams — If you don't believe in yourself or your dream, no one else will either.
520.eng. Creating a solid foundation is a life-changing step.
521.eng. _7. Failure Can Lead To Success — Identify your Achilles heel and design daily practices to overcome obstacles.
522.eng. _8. Take Serious Steps Forward — Plan the essential steps to insure that your dreams come true and then put those practical steps into action.
523.eng. _9. Build Your Dream Team — Being able to ask for help will make your dream more attainable.
524.eng. _ There are resources that can open doors and make your life easier.
525.eng. _10. Live As A Dreamer — Create a dream come true life.
526.eng. _ Once you are clear about your purpose, dreams and resources, you can look at all areas of your life and decide what you want.
