As a life coach, this could be the best decision you'll ever make. However, I would strongly advise that you get coached first.

You see, coaching is a profession and requires a lot of commitment, which most people find over time they cannot make. It is a business decision, as well as a lifestyle one.

When you go through your own personal growth program with a coach, your coach will help you ensure you are choosing to be a coach for the right reasons and that you will stay motivated for as long as it takes. Being coached will also give you the perspective of the client and you will be able to coach people from a position of confidence in the process and the results.

I was personally coached 3 times (!) - once when my wife, Ronit, was studying to be a coach, once in my coaching class and another time by my mentor coach. This was wonderful, because I got to rework my beliefs and values thoroughly and transitioned from being an overworked IT professional to a positive human being and a "clean" life coach.

All the best!
