You may have reached a point in your road when you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know what step to take next. This is a great time to ask a <a title=\"The Life Coach Dr., Marlene Shiple, Ph.D.\" href=\"http:\/\/thelifecoachdr.com\/coach\" target=\"_blank\">Life Coach<\/a> or mentor for help in determining what you should do. They can help you figure out the next several steps you should be taking to reach your goal.<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 You fail. <!--more-->If you have worked hard at your goal, but hit a snag and end up failing, you lose your motivation to continue. This is the time to ask an accountability partner for support. They will encourage you and help you get motivated to try again. Accountability partners can be colleagues, your significant other, your Life Coach, or a social group you belong to.<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 You are overwhelmed. If you are on a diet, for example, you might be overwhelmed with the bad choices that you get bombarded with daily. This is the time to ask a friend, family member, or your Life Coach to help you make the right choices and keep you motivated to abstain when that doughnut stares you in the face.<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u00a2 You lose interest in the daily steps. Sometimes the steps to reaching your goal can be mundane and boring. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hard to stay motivated when this happens. This is when you need to ask others for encouragement. It can come from friends and family, your Life Coach, or anyone else who knows how much you want to reach your goal.<\/p>\n<p>For Life Coaching assistance, contact Dr. Marlene Shiple at (602) 266 &#8211; 6662.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having a goal you are reaching for is how you achieve what you want.
