4 Simple Tips To Get The Most Out of This Class:

1. Print out this workbook before the class starts so you can write down your notes as you
listen.


2. Review the topic outline, so you know what to listen out for. Make sure you've set aside
private time for this session, so you’ll be able to focus and fully receive the benefits of
the session.


3. During the event, write down ALL the interesting and new ideas and inspirations you
get while listening — that way you won’t lose the information most relevant to you.


4. Think of how you can implement the systems and techniques revealed in this session.

Preparation Tips:

• Make sure you are in a quiet place where nothing can distract you and that you are not
driving a car or any other vehicle. Be in a comfortable position and a right setting so you
are not distracted or anxious. 


• Stretch your muscles before starting the class. Stretching loosens the muscles and
tendons allowing you to sit more comfortably. Additionally, stretching starts the process
of “going inward” and brings added focus to the body.


• Get yourself a cup of tea or coffee. Drinking it promotes increased activity of the anterior
cingulate gyrus in the specific areas of the brain that are involved in planning, attention,
monitoring, and concentration.

The Simplest Coaching Model

Step 1 - SHOW UP

Step 2 - RESPOND TO WHAT SHOWS UP

Show Up:

You can’t coach without being present with another human being

What are the questions that are usually coming to my mind while I am with a client? Here
are a few examples:

Am I going to pull it off?

Are they going to hire me? / Are they going to re-sign me?

Am I going to impress them?

Are they going to refer me?

What are the principles or techniques I want to use?

A lot of things going on in our minds that stop us from showing up


powerfully in the presence of another person.

_______________

13
The Art And Science Of Coaching
Online Training
with Michæl Neill

It’s not only about listening better.


Your presence itself will help your client
realize themselves what it feels like to
be present.

Respond:

"What comes through me is so much


better than what I can think of.”

When you tap into our innate intelligence (or what some might
call our intuitive awareness), you tend to find the answers to
any question that the client may have and you are able to build
a connection necessary for the client to receive what you offer.
The other person’s receptivity is what makes coaching easier.
A client’s receptivity opens wide when you show up fully and
respond from the place of your innate intelligence.

When both you and your client show up powerfully, a few


cool things happen:
1. Deep connection

14
The Art And Science Of Coaching
Online Training
with Michæl Neill

2. Innate intelligence naturally comes out to play


3. You hear things beyond the words (“natural listening” - when you genuinely
understand where the client is coming from and the client is more open to be
impacted by you)

“Show up, tap into your innate intelligence and respond to


what shows up - become a catalyst for creation and creativity
for your client!”

_______________

When I see myself 3 months from now, how would I show up


for my clients differently? How do I expect my clients to
experience my coaching differently?

SELF-REFLECTION

The Art And Science Of Coaching

with Michæl Neill

The right questions can spur your subconscious to feed you the right
answers. So ask yourself. . .

What would it be like if I were able to serve more people and make
the impact I’ve always wanted to make through my powerful
coaching?

How would it feel if my fears were shattered and I could create a


lifestyle that allows me to find and enroll clients easily and
effortlessly?

What can I do today to start using the right methods and have
everything available for me regarding success, contribution, and
abundance?
