Although we are born with no knowledge, no skill, and only a few instincts, humans are marvelous learners. We rapidly evolve as unique personalities through the influence of family, friends and our culture.
Along the way we are taught and coached by others and ultimately become more or less self-sufficient, building and relying on structures of knowing (unexamined assumptions) that inform and direct our actions. Like the air we breathe, we use these structures without much reflection. Often unrecognized faulty assumptions hinder or misdirect our progress in life.
“Ontology” refers to the branch of philosophy that contemplates “being.” An ontological coach is trained in a set of disciplines that are effective for observing and demonstrating how a person’s assumptions about self and others work to impede or accelerate progress toward their life’s goals. Ontological coaching supports you by helping you to see more clearly your personal assumptions (your invisible structures of knowing) and helps you examine them so that you can be efficient and effective in achieving what you want in life. In essence, you free yourself to be what you intend.
When you consult with an ontological coach, you benefit from the insight of a trained professional who helps you achieve clarity and focus in making your dreams become real. It is both exciting and challenging. As you gain proficiency, results come with increasing ease and grace.
