I'm Dreaming of a..... by Paul Cook

You can time travel; with me or in fact any such qualified coach!  (There is only one other as good as me of course).


In essence we can take you forward or back in your own time.  This calm coaching technique takes place in a comfortable environment and facilitates your ability to ‘future focus’.  We will venture back in your personal history and uncover the time from which you may have developed your ‘limiting beliefs’ then repair the stuff that stops you achieving, that prevents you, that doubts ability, that even attaches fear.  This is generally referred to as ‘timeline therapy’.


Our clients’ feedback indicates empowerment, focus and confidence to overcome that future barrier in whatever challenge they face.

Look into my eyes……..

It is the year 1977, 1978, 1979 or other such prehistoric technological period.  You are toiling at your formica specially designed office, symmetrical flying ducks or white horse sea pictures on the wall, huge metal filing cabinets neatly hiding all your treasured business files, Ford Escort company car in the car park, beige office telephone clipped to the wall and rolodex at the ready (please feel at ease to admit to flairs and tank top).  Business is modern!  You are of course blissfully unaware that out there in your future will be an A4 sized casing which will allow you to network across the globe, store information at a capacity beyond your imagination, scan opportunities, visually link to your partners in the U.S and most importantly watch videos of small dogs performing acrobatics.

Thus was the dream and plan of Bill Gates - ‘A computer on every desk, in every home’.  Back in your past your 1970’s personal or business past, sit there for a while and imagine what you would have given for the MS/Apple/IBM magic then?  What would you do with it, where would you be now?

You’re back in the room.

So, technological breakthrough and technological benefits are all wonderful and essential, but I can’t find the app that gives you these:

o   Increased productivity
o   Increased diversity
o   Retention of leadership talent
o   Increased team member satisfaction
o   Accelerated senior leader promotions
o   Increased client satisfaction
o   Improved teamwork
o   Increased quality of consulting services
o   Confidence
o   Support
o   Understanding
o   Life satisfaction


Our dream, ‘A coach for every person’.

For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin - Real life.  But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first.  Then, life would begin.  At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life.

I did indicate there is only one other coach of such stellar ‘timeline therapy’ skill base, however for you purists, Dr Who is also quite good but his consultancy rates are astronomical!
