Once we’ve helped them to get connected to their possibility, we help them get clear on what’s getting in the way.
Where are they now, and what’s the gap between where they are and where they’d like to be?
This gap is where the bulk of the work is for us.
For example, if someone wants to publish a book, but they haven’t written a word … part of the gap is forming a daily writing habit, and part of the gap is the resistance and fear they’re facing that’s stopping them from taking on the writing project. Or maybe the gap is around finding time in their overly busy life, or they hate marketing and so don’t want to market the book.
Help them get clear on what the gap is, and then ask them to strategize. Take on a practice. Commit to something. Make a declaration of what they’re going to do. But they can’t do that until they’ve gotten clear on the gap.
