Are you achieving what you want in life? Do you have a need for some form of personal empowerment to achieve your goals, which is quite different from just chatting with your friends? It is a support that is personal, professional, confidential, and empowering. This is the role of a Life Coach.
Before going along to see David Allan, I was feeling very disillusioned with my job and life. I knew I was not where I wanted to be, in terms of living a life that is not only fulfilling to me but is also a blessing to this world. This disillusionment was spilling over into all areas of my life. I had lost my spark and the aspirations of a meaningful existence. It takes courage to admit to someone else that your own life is on a downward trend but and it was this first fearful step that has changed my life. Through David's guidance, my life is taking some very exciting turns.
It began by simply telling Dave my passions. What I really wanted to do with my life, brainstorming the possibilities and reaffirming my abilities to achieve my goals. We started setting small goals and achieving them first. It is amazing how one step leads to another! Things began to happen and although my dreams were still in the distance, I knew I was getting closer. Working with another person to achieve a goal and being accountable to them is very powerful !
I am now well and truly on the way to obtaining my dreams. I will be leaving my Job in June and pursuing my chosen career path. This has been very much a calculated risk with definite steps. I am very appreciative to David for starting me on this path.
Live the Dream !
The people we remember from history are those who risked it all, even themselves to follow their dreams. The reason I believe I was depressed about my career path was that I was living someone else's dream....be that the CEO of the company or the initial visionary of the company. I want to conceive my own vision and dreams and follow them. Because this is not only advantageous to me but a great blessing to the world.

I have had over 18 years of experience in helping people set and achieve their life goals. Without doubt, when we set life goals they always involve other people to some extent. The key is to be able to navigate your goals and your relationships so that you end up with win/win situations.
Many times we go through experiences that are, for us, first time experiences. This is when the services of a Life Coach are invaluable. Unfortunately we are not taught in school how to set goals according to our purpose and then how to strategically achieve the outcomes we desire. We are also not taught the skills of conflict resolution, and how to communicate to get good results. When we are in the midst of conflict it is almost impossible to see clearly. A Life Coach will bring objectivity to the situation and help you work your way to a clear solution.
I love to empower people to discover these skills and see them used to a proficiency that brings about healthy and happy relationships. After all, life is basically made up of relationships. If your relationships are strained then so are you.
Another major part of Life Coaching is dealing with yourself. We are indeed complex beings, and we can lose sight of what is important. Life balance is very important for us to have a sense of fulfilment in our lives. Are you following your passions and dreams? Or are you locked up in a self-made cell of fear? Coaching can help you forge your way forward to a more productive and fulfilling life. A coach can help you see real future options, bringing more freedom into your life.
I have a number of assessments which can help you measure your effectiveness in leadership or in managing your time or simply understanding your behavioural style in different circumstances. Self- awareness is one of the most empowering gifts you can receive from a Coach. It helps to bring wisdom and a clear strategy for success. You are also only one click away from filling in an online assessment of your choice. Just scroll to the bottom of this page and click on the "PayPal" icon.
Take a look at just a few assessments I can offer you (on-line or hard copy) to help you more fully understand your current situation and to set a clear charter forward.
Communication Effectiveness Profile
This instrument looks at an individual's ability to effectively get their message across using seven separate categories. These are Empathizing, Receiving, Clarifying, Understanding, Reading non-verbal clues, Feedback giving and Transmitting your message.
Conflict Style Instrument
This instrument helps individuals to learn more about the styles that both they and others might use when facing conflict situations. There are five style categories: Integrating, Suppressing, Sacrificing, Usurping and Exchanging. In the extensive interpretation notes, individuals are also given a comprehensive model to help them to understand in what context the conflict might have arisen in the first place.
Goal/Objective Setting Effective Profile
This instrument looks at an individual's ability to effectively set goals and objectives for themselves and others using seven separate categories. These are Vision clarity, Direction and target setting, Planning and organizing, Measurement and milestones, Communication and engagement, Motivation and commitment and Results focus and orientation.
Personal Effectiveness Profile
This personal effectiveness profile is a broadly based instrument that looks to measure the personal leadership capabilities of individuals (whether or not they are directly responsible for leading others). The seven personal effectiveness categories are Delivering results, Achieving to higher standards, Straight talking, Developing yourself, Taking responsibility, Pulling together and Exceeding customer expectations.
Personal Stress & Well-Being Assessment
This instrument looks at the whole subject of stress and well-being in seven separate categories. These are 'Predisposition', 'Physical Fitness', 'Nutrition and Diet', 'Personal well-being', 'Emotional balance', 'Emotional habits and control', and 'Work Life'. Each category gives individuals a clear graph to indicate their relative levels of stress and detailed interpretation notes to use in personal action planning for improvement.
Time Management Effectiveness Profile
This instrument looks at how effectively individuals manage their time in a range of different situations and circumstances. The instrument divides the subject in to seven separate categories. These are 'Predisposition', 'Preparation skills', 'Organizational ability', 'Pressure management skills', 'Delegation skills', 'Interruption management skills' and 'Results orientation'. Each category gives individuals a clear graph to indicate overall performance as well as detailed interpretation notes.
Maybe you are tired of your current career and are considering a change or perhaps you would like to be more organised. Whatever life issue you would like to work on, there are strategies that will help you, as well as personal support and feedback, which come through personal Coaching.
If you would like your marriage to go to the next level, I have a tried and proven program which produces clarity in 11 categories for discussion. You will soon have strategies to work on in order to reach fulfilment in your marriage. This is not a test but a tool in helping you find the areas that need work and devising a strategy for success. I also work with people in preparing them for their marriage. People often place enormous energy and financial commitment in preparing for the wedding, but little in preparing for the marriage. Don't make that same mistake.

Hi my name is Sara O’Brien I asked David to be my mentor and personal development coach, so I could improve and meet my goals that I had previously set for both my work and personal life. Not only did Dave help me meet these goals, he also helped me set new ones with clearly defined action steps to ensure they were achieved in a certain time limit.
Dave helped me believe, having been given the right steps, I could achieve anything. This helped me strengthen my self-confidence in order to try new and bigger things.
Sara Obrien
Dave also taught, and modeled for me, important yet simple things like quality customer service by going the extra mile with encouraging phone calls and inspiring emails. These made a huge difference in keeping me focused on what was important. They empowered me to overcome all obstacles that got in my way throughout the mentoring process. If you are a person who would like to make life changes or any type of changes, Dave can help you step by step reach your full potential.
Thanks, Dave
