Overcoming Negative Thoughts
Life Coaching – On the Importance of Happiness
Happiness is the continuing quest that humans strive for. A person has never reached true success if they have never felt real happiness. Of significant importance, the American Declaration of Independence states that happiness and the pursuit thereof is an inalienable right. Meaning it is a God-given right.
Why Do We Have to Be Happy?
People say that life is complicated enough without having to be moody or sad every single day of your life. According to science, elation triggers hormones essential for proper metabolic function and well-being. The happy feelings also bring about the positive side of a person. Whichever premise you choose, it is vital for a person to feel happiness in their lifetime.
Reality Check
However, poverty, stress, violence, competition, and oppression are all around us. In many third-world countries, we see people dying of hunger; we see those in power abuse and beat down people to gain a foot ahead of their fellow citizens. We see everything around us, but we fail to look within ourselves. Chances are you could be one of the thousands if not millions of people taking antidepressants or some other mind-altering substance.
Statistics say that 20% of Americans take an antidepressant, and overdoses are not uncommon. Sadness leaves a profound effect on the human body and spirit. Humans tend to lean towards negativity because it tends to carry more weight than happiness. The unfortunate thing is that, scientifically, deep-rooted sadness is the underlying cause of some diseases’ onset.
Coaching vs. Therapy
It is essential to prevent rather than cure. That is why when the first signs of restlessness occur regularly, it is often an excellent time to bring in a life coaching expert. Therapists focus on past events to analyze people’s present emotional and mental conditions. They dig deep into the corners of a person’s mind to find the roots of unhappiness. Life coaches, however, focus on the present and the future. Usually, when a person feels the first nagging doubt of sadness, the cause is immediately within reaching distance.
Mind Power
Life coaching uses the power of the mind to promote a positive effect on a person’s life. The human mind is a powerful thing. It thinks, it feels, and it stimulates a person into action.
Pursuing happiness is a mental effort.
Actualization is achieved through realization. A person is better able to see the road ahead when they know where they are going and how they want to be. It is not always easy, but with the aid of a life coach, a person is better able to focus because there is guidance and mentoring.
As much as a life coach wants to help you achieve your full potential and be happy, there are limitations on the scope of duties a life coach can perform. A life coach is not a psychotherapist.
Therefore they are not equipped to treat a mentally and emotionally troubled person on the verge of utter hopelessness or deep depression. If this is the case, it is better to seek medical help.
