If you are a coach or consultant when you’re working with a client you need to get right inside the clients problem or situation, whether it’s in their business or in their mind.

You need to “try on the problem” for yourself, you almost need to install it and “run” it as if it were your problem, just for a short while. And at the same time you manage to maintain that objective standpoint.

That way you can work out HOW it is a problem, what, specifically, is the problem and how can you solve it.

In order to facilitate your client’s transformation you need to bring this problem into your conscious awareness and “run” it as a problem for yourself. Almost all healing and therapies accept this is true on some level. Some are more overt about it than others.

Think about it like disc space on a pc. When your client comes to you – they up load all their problem files onto your system. If there is not enough space the level of healing you can facilitate is limited to the amount of “space on your hard drive”

So your own problems and mind clutter will limit the free capacity you have to take on your client’s problems.

You have an inner threshold above which you cannot run any more problems, even if it’s only temporarily for your client

Not only does this limit your ability to work with any current clients but it will actually repel potential new ones.

Your client or potential client knows unconsciously just how much capacity you have

Your client or potential client will know unconsciously if you have the capacity to “hold” them through their transformation. No matter how good your marketing is, or your sales, or how skilled you are. If your client senses on any level that you can’t handle their issues they will look elsewhere for a therapist or coach.

The difficulty is that they won’t ever be aware of this consciously. They will simply sense that you are just not the right person for them.

If they do come to you as a client you will only be able to work with them to the level that you have capacity. Again you may never know this because your client’s unconscious mind will protect them and you by keeping the full scope of the problem suppressed.

The result is either

• You won’t get that person as a client. They will simply go elsewhere, or…
• They will come to you, but will only address certain, or smaller issues. This means they will continue to look elsewhere for a coach or consultant.

Both of the above limit you and your business.

Conversely – when you DO have enough capacity. When you are healed and centred within yourself. When you continually clear your own stuff leaving plenty of space to temporarily take over their problems your clients will get the transformation they seek.

Your happy and healed clients will then go away feeling great and tell everyone else about it. Which is exactly what you want.

How do you raise this inner threshold?

Constantly work on finding and releasing your own personal blocks and problems. Get therapy and coaching yourself. This is why so many coaches and therapists working in the personal transformational business come to me. The clear their blocks, raise their threshold and go away to create massive income, and attract clients effortlessly.
