Self-Coaching With Systemic Perspective

Self-coaching systems perspective



Self-coaching the all-time coaching the Self-systemic perspective

Any theory about the origins of the self-coaching and essentially uses the figure of Socrates as a reference.

However, many centuries before, there is a history inthe Indiay China that are authentic Self-coaching relating to contemporary. Recall for example the book The King of Lao Tzu, which can be summarized with the phrase:

"He who knows others is far from an expert, but wiser is he who knows himself. The dominating others is powerful, but he who masters himself is mightier still."

We can also quote Confucius, Buddha .... And many more.

Socrates calls upon all self-examination and self-enkrateia-which is driving. Question:

"Can you trust someone who has no self-control?"

Aristotle also says that man can become what you want. You can go from being, "where I am," what we call reality today want to be "my point", the vision, objectives. The methodology for this journey is action.

Already in the last century, there was an influence of existentialist philosophy.

The essence of self-coaching is the autonomous individual existence.

Determined individual existence existentialism. We have the capacity of becoming aware of our current reality and to consider our own lives.

What matters most to us, personal or shared?

What is our current reality? This systemic approach is indispensable.

What is it that prevents achieving it?

The Self-coaching with these questions and then make an action plan, implement and follow, allows us to achieve our goals and live with autonomy and satisfaction.

This type of Self-Coaching has begun to consolidate, now, as a methodology that can be a systemic perspective new approach to learning and performance of any activity to produce valid results both personally and professionally.

In this new methodological approach are very efficient six core disciplines that are constituted by contenidosteóricos, guiding ideas, tools, principles, experimentation and essences:

Self-control

In colloquial language the word domain suggests the domination of people or things. Concept that has nothing to do with the meaning we give ourselves. We understand that domain can also have a sense of skill level, that of a master craftsman, an artist, an athlete who has a special sphere of its activity.

It means approaching life from a creative perspective to consistently achieve the results that matter most.

The urge to create is within all, is not exclusive to artists. You can cover the entire life from the most routine to the most intimate.

We can find its essence continually clarifying what is important to you and becoming aware of the current reality. We did it simply by answering two questions:

Do you know what it is continually important to you?

Do you have a clear awareness of your current reality?

The first question is as a light source that helps you clarify your vision, what truly matters to you.

The second is another site that helps you continually see more clearly your current reality.

The gap between what you care and making aware of your current reality is what produces the creative tension, a source of creative energy. This is what constitutes the essence of self-control.

Systemic perspective

The essence lies in the system view: View interrelationships rather than linear sequences of cause and effect and processes of change rather than snapshots. See all the systems that exist in reality and every one of them. View wholes and interrelationships between the parties.

The systemic perspective is a discipline for seeing wholes and interrelationships between the parties.

It provides a set of patterns and tools that have been distilled over the centuries but especially at the end of the last century, the physical and social sciences, engineering and organizations. Increasingly applies to systems as diverse as business, political, economic, urban, meteorological, ecological, physiological, obviously learning and, therefore, the Self-coaching. It lets us see the complex reality, increasingly, in its dynamic aspect and detail. This is one of the priorities of our approach.

The systemic perspective is also a special sensitivity to the subtle interconnections that give people their uniqueness.

Meta communication

The ability to communicate with others and yourself is essential for the development of Self-coaching. Coaching is personal.El interpersonal communication self-coaching is intra-personal communication with oneself. Communication is reversible, as best you communicate with yourself the better you communicate with others and vice versa.

The communication must be assumed that the understatement may be the norm rather than the exception.

Many times we do not grasp the true meaning of the message and really convey its meaning, much less the effects we want to produce.

Generally not enough to communicate. We need the ability to target communication.

The goal of communication is the ability to communicate or understand the meaning of what we mean and achieve the desired effects. Besides the exchange of verbal information is well aware of the physiology, voice, gestures, gaze, facial expression, movements ...

The best strategy for making verbal and physiological information is to pay attention. The attention is so vital to our neurological functioning as air and water for the functioning of our body

Mental Models

You want to live life based on your belief system. Beliefs are the rules of your life. They are very powerful and yet can be very limiting.

Practicing Self-coaching to address the limitations and beliefs changed the way of thinking that are the source.

Knowledge of your scale of values ​​is also of great importance. Determine how you react to any life experience. The operating system of your brain.

More and more we see what it costs to implement the best ideas. Many trials show that a new approach produces better results but this approach generally can not be implemented.

What prevents it?

We believe that mental models are in use, the internal images deeply rooted. Limited thinking and acting. Almost all cases show us that we have experienced the same. It is not lack of resources or lack of motivation or even a systemic misunderstanding which prevents the best ideas and new approaches are put into practice. Thus the discipline of mental models is a critical tool for self-coaching.

Emotional state

To build anything you need resources. If you know exactly what you want and why you find these resources: economic, tools, techniques, training, knowledge, habits, mental strategies and, especially, the emotional state.

The key to find and use any resource is that you own your emotional state. The emotional state is the most powerful source of resources.

Some states enhancers such as trust, love, joy, peace, internal security that mobilize our resources. Others, that the decrease and may even cancel, such as fear, anxiety, depression, sadness, confusion. These states are produced, often without consciously direct them. Instead, they can make the difference between success and failure of our conduct.

Want to learn how to take control of your statements?

Our system provides the structure of subjective experience, not so much the content. We structure our internal representations through our senses. We experience reality in the form of sensations of hearing, visual, kinesthetic, gustatory and olfactory. Any experience stored in our mind has to be represented by these senses. These five systems of representation are the components of the result of all human experience.

There is an interplay between internal representations and physiology.

If we change the internal representation changes the physiology and vice versa. One of the fastest ways to change a state is behaving as if you were in the state you want to change. Changing the physiological model. If you want to be happy, takes the position, breathing, relaxation, movement, tone of voice ... for when you're happy. As if you were happy, automatically switches to this state and also change your internal representations.

Team Learning

What is the basic process of team learning:

The process of creation and alignment with the shared vision.

It is a process of alignment with the shared vision to create the results we all really want. When a team is aligned with the shared vision becomes a microcosm for learning throughout the organization.

A shared vision is an extraordinary force. Few human forces are as powerful as a shared vision.

The true potential of Self-coaching is to increase the domain of each discipline and transform them into a way of being and living.
