Apathy

In many ways, a life coach teaches his client that we all have within us the potential to succeed, transmitting a message of hope that seeks to empower the person who comes for help, showing that we all go through moments where decision making marks a before and after in our lives.

However, there are many and varied obstacles that must be faced by those who wish to achieve a better quality of life, and faced with the discomfort caused by the pressure of deciding what to do, many abandon the path of personal growth.

The personal vision brings an inner strength that does not give space to limiting states such as apathy, which weakens those who are working to reach their goals.

This personalized strategy is created by the coach respecting the client's values, identity and priorities and is based on the client's personal mission, that is to say, from which place this person feels useful and contributes to the common good.
