Good news is, our inner gremlins and our self-limiting behaviors as a result can be overcome through self-awareness and confidence building exercises. The Responsible Risk Taking chapter in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/resources\/recommended-reading\/coaching-perspectives-series-by-the-center-for-coaching-certification-and-more.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Coaching Perspective<\/a>s V offers you two effective techniques to use with clients when something is holding them back from achieving what they want. The 5-Step Risk Taking Model and the Wheel of Responsible Risk Taking Exercise in this chapter provide a structured way for the client to think through their thoughts and reframe them to produce positive thoughts. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">As coaches, we often have clients come to us because they want to create change in their lives.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Working from their agenda and helping them see results moves the client forward and supports them as they come out of their comfort zones.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Competent coaching is accepting the client where they are when they come, responding to the client\u2019s wants in the present, and guiding them toward the future according to their agenda.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The five-step model includes the following steps: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.CoachCert.com\/coachingblog\/creating-awareness\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Awareness<\/a>, Visualization, Identification, Action and Evaluation. Each step of the model suggests <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/Ask-Open-Ended-Questions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">opened-ended questions<\/a>, which guide the client in discovering a life that they want. A Circle of Responsible Risk exercise follows.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>It is a useful tool for clarifying the client\u2019s priorities for action, assessing progress, and holding clients accountable for stated goals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Circle of Responsible Risk helps the client\u2019s keep their goals in mind as they choose what they want to achieve and as they create action steps.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>The Circle of Responsible Risk tool also supports the client as they identify their level of success in different areas of their life and deciding what want to change.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">As a coach you will find the five-step responsible risk process and the Circle of Responsible Risk exercise useful guides in maintaining structure during discussions around setting and achieving a client\u2019s goals. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Read the Responsible Risk Taking chapter in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Coaching-Perspectives-V-Cathy-Liska\/dp\/151757207X\/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1448736141&amp;sr=1-1&amp;keywords=coaching+perspectives+v\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Coaching Perspectives V<\/a> for more.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Margi Bush, We all have experienced the voice of our inner gremlins at one time or another.
