There are an amazing number of quotes for coaches out in the wilds of the internet. And what’s fascinating about so many of them is that they aren’t written by coaches. Sometimes we coaches think the only people we can learn about personal growth from is another coach, but that’s not the case.
My favorite thing about reading quotes (and collecting them) is how much you can learn and grow from a single sentence. Because quotes can open our eyes in non-confrontational ways that conversations (or even getting coached) sometimes can’t. If someone challenges our beliefs or assumptions one on one, we can become defensive.
But there’s no threat to reading a quote from someone else — simply the opportunity to absorb it and learn from it.
Hopefully there are one or two quotes for coaches in this collection that make you stop and think about your life, or a situation you’re facing.
