Can Life Coaching Navigate a Mid Life Crisis?

Posted on January 12, 2014 by Dr. Errol Gluck

Life comes at everyone fast. One day you are learning to tie your shoes, the next you are going to prom, next you are graduating from college. Suddenly you are married with children, a dog, and a mortgage. Men- may be your hair starts thinning or going grey. Ladies- you perhaps decide to retire those Spring Break bikini’s from college, opting for a more modest one piece instead. Then your kids get asked to prom, go to college, and though you couldn’t be happier for them, their aging only reminds you of your own. Instead of looking foreword to your birthday, you are now dreading it.

Happiness on the Internet

Posted on January 7, 2014 by Dr. Errol Gluck

Whenever people think of what it takes to make them happy, they conjure up images of things like their family, being in the woods, or eating a delicious meal. But no matter what they imagine, their fantasies almost always have one thing in common: it’s always in the real world.

People spend most of their time on the Internet, yet whenever they imagine “happiness” it’s never in the virtual world! This is a great problem! While I’m not the most tech-savvy person in the world, I’m also no Luddite.

A life coach, like any other person, has to get with the times. I’m not here to tell you that your cell-phone is killing your humanity and wasting your time. Technology itself doesn’t do that; only the abuse of technology does that. It’s all about balance. So I think imagining your own happiness can include reconnecting with an old friend on Facebook, or just Googling around on a topic that interests you for an hour.

If, however, you find yourself abusing technology, like you would alcohol or drugs, you can come to me for hypnosis that treats all forms of technology addiction. But as your life coach, let me tell you that it’s okay to embrace technology—as long as it’s in moderation.

Resolutions Always Fail, Right?

Posted on January 3, 2014 by Dr. Errol Gluck

So resolutions always fail, right? There’s always a February falloff right? We lose 10 pounds in January, but then that box of chocolates just proves irresistible. True? Not necessarily.

The number one reason that resolutions fail is because we view resolutions wrong.

A lot of us think that resolutions are this mountain-top pot of gold that we need to strive to achieve. This inherently creates a huge amount of pressure because, after all, who wants to hike up a mountain?

Resolutions should start with looking at the treasure that’s right in front of you on the ground. Start small. Rather than externalize your dreams by saying to yourself, “I’m going to lose 30 pounds this year,” reframe that resolution by saying, “I’m going to lengthen my walk to work by 1 mile every day” or “I’m going to spend more time in the produce and vegetable section of the supermarket.”

Make your resolutions simple and manageable, and they will take off.

Can Life Coaching Improve Your Dating Skills?

Posted on January 2, 2014 by Dr. Errol Gluck

Let’s talk about dating. Remember dating? It used to exist. Now, everything is online and here is some of my advice for you.

One is, don’t go online. The ability to walk over to another person, introduce yourself, give them a business card and say, “Listen, this who I am. I don’t know you, you don’t know me, but I would love to have a cup of coffee with you.

Now, if you are able to accept the fact that there’s going to be a lot of rejection involved, but at least you show that you have the courage, you have the confidence to say, “This is who I am. Look me up online. I’m single, I’m not involved, and I’d like to get to know you. If you’re open to that, great.”

The ability to look in a person’s eyes — as opposed to texting them, as opposed to going through the Internet where people lie about just about everything — is a skill that you might just want to develop.

Dating can be extremely fascinating, if you eliminate the fear and you eliminate the bullshit. Try it. You might like it.

You might say what I just told you to do, I could not possibly do! That is why you need life coaching. I will show you how to get into a person’s personal without threatening them.

I will show you how to communicate in a way that’s comfortable, how to create instant intimacy, how to create a sense of you’re a safe person and not a nut! I will show you how to date in a way that will make you an expert dater, and at the same time, not a liar. This is an adventure you’re going to want to take.

Go here to find out how to improve your dating and relationship skills.

The Secret to Following Through On Your Resolutions

Posted on December 27, 2013 by Dr. Errol Gluck

It’s the end of the year, guys. Once again, we go through the tradition of “how my life is going to change” in 2014. The biggest problem is that people treat their promises like they do their alarm clocks: they always hit the snooze button.

Make Your New Year’s Resolutions Stick with Hypnosis and Life Coaching

You notice they use words like “I’m going to try to do this,” “I would like to do this.” “This is something I would like to accomplish,” as opposed to saying, “I will do this. I am absolutely going to,” not allowing themselves to have a back door.

The mindset is that retreat is not an option, and when retreat is not an option, then you go and you ask yourself, “Can I do this on my own? Do I need to change the way I think?” That’s where hypnosis comes in.

“Do I need a structure?” That’s where coaching comes in. Do I need constant encouragement and not just a boost of determination followed by slower and slower and slower doing?

These are the questions you should ask yourself. It is 2014. Let’s change the things you want to change.
