Scene 13 (16m 6s)

[Audio] Have you ever noticed that sometimes we don't remember some people faces, names, or what they were wearing. But we will always remember how they made us feel. Firstly, it is essential to understand that our interactions with others have a significant impact on how they feel and remember us. When we interact with someone, we leave an impression on them, whether positive or negative. If we leave them with positive vibes, they are more likely to remember us clearly and have positive thoughts about us in the future. Moreover, leaving people with positive vibes can create a big effect that can benefit both parties. When we make others feel good, they are more likely to pass on that positivity to others they interact with, creating a chain reaction of positive energy. This can help to create a more positive and uplifting environment for everyone involved. On the other hand, leaving people with negative vibes can have the opposite effect. Negative interactions can create lasting impressions, which can be difficult to overcome. People are more likely to remember negative experiences and feelings, and these can influence their behavior towards us in the future. So, leaving people with positive vibes is essential for building positive relationships and creating a more positive environment. It can impact how people remember us and influence their behavior towards us in the future. By making an effort to leave people with positive vibes, we can create a great effect of positivity and make a meaningful impact on the people around us.

[Audio] In this class, we'll be exploring how to develop your coaching style and create a powerful coaching process. What is a Coaching Style? Your coaching style is the way you approach coaching and interact with clients. It includes your personality, communication style, and coaching techniques. Examples of Coaching Styles There are many different coaching styles, and the one you choose will depend on your personality, experience, and the needs of your clients. Here are a few examples of coaching styles: Active Listening: focusing on what the client is saying and reflecting back their thoughts and feelings to ensure that they feel heard and understood. Reflective Coaching: using reflective techniques to help clients explore their thoughts and feelings and gain insight into their behaviors and motivations. Positive Psychology: emphasizing positive thinking and the strengths and resources of the client to help them achieve their goals. This means that Positive Psychology is a relatively new field of psychology that focuses on the positive aspects of human experience and behavior, rather than just the negative ones. The goal of Positive Psychology is to help individuals live their best lives by emphasizing positive thinking, identifying and using strengths and resources, and helping clients achieve their goals. One of the core principles of Positive Psychology is the emphasis on positive thinking. This means focusing on what's going well in our lives, rather than what's not. Positive Psychology teaches us to look for the good in situations and people, and to cultivate a sense of gratitude and appreciation for the positive aspects of our lives. Another important principle of Positive Psychology is the focus on strengths and resources. This means identifying and using the strengths and resources that we already have to help us achieve our goals. Positive Psychology recognizes that everyone has unique strengths and resources, and that these can be used to help us overcome challenges and achieve our desired outcomes. Positive Psychology is also a strengths-based approach, which means that it emphasizes the client's strengths and resources, rather than their weaknesses and problems. This approach focuses on building on what's already working in a client's life, rather than just trying to fix what's not working. Finally, Positive Psychology encourages clients to set goals and work towards achieving them. By identifying and working towards goals that are aligned with our values and strengths, we can increase our sense of purpose and fulfillment in life. Cognitive Behavioral Coaching: identifying negative thinking patterns and behaviors and working with the client to replace them with positive ones.
